AddCalendar is a calendar platform. Ninja Forms makes it easy to build forms, but sending data to external platforms requires an integration. AFI bridges that gap to AddCalendar. Here is the full setup.

Why connect directly?

Cloud automation tools like Zapier charge per task and route your data through external servers. AFI processes everything on your WordPress site. No per-submission fees, no external dependencies.

What you will need

  • A WordPress site with Ninja Forms installed and at least one form.
  • A AddCalendar account.
  • The Advanced Form Integration plugin (free from WordPress.org).

Connect AddCalendar to AFI

  1. Get your AddCalendar API Key from your account settings.
  2. In WordPress, go to AFI → Settings → AddCalendar.
  3. Paste the API Key and click Save Changes.

Setting up the integration

1. Create a new integration

Go to AFI → Add New. Name it Ninja Forms to AddCalendar.

2. Pick your trigger

Select Ninja Forms as the form provider and choose the form you want to connect. AFI detects the fields automatically.

3. Select AddCalendar as the destination

Choose AddCalendar from the platform dropdown and pick Add Event. This creates an event in AddCalendar.

4. Map fields

Match each AddCalendar field on the left to the corresponding Ninja Forms field on the right. You can also use smart tags like {{_submission_date}} and {{utm_source}}.

5. Add conditions if needed

Only want to send certain submissions? Set up a conditional rule based on any form field value.

6. Save and test

Click Save Integration. Fill out your Ninja form and submit. Check AddCalendar to confirm the data arrived. If anything looks wrong, open AFI → Log to see the exact request and response.

Free vs Pro

The free version maps title, date, and description to AddCalendar with unlimited submissions. Pro adds custom field mapping. No per-submission fees on any plan.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need coding skills?

No. Everything is configured through a visual interface, including field mapping.

Will adding this slow down my form?

No. AFI sends data to the destination after the form submission completes. Your visitors see the normal success message without any delay.

Can I connect multiple Ninja Forms?

Yes. Create a separate integration for each form, or send one form to multiple platforms.
