How to Send The Events Calendar Data to Lemlist

Lemlist is a email outreach platform for managing subscribers and campaigns. Here is how to pipe The Events Calendar event straight into Lemlist using Advanced Form Integration. The setup takes about five minutes and runs entirely on your own server.

Skip the automation middleman

Rather than routing data through a third-party cloud, AFI sends it directly from your WordPress server to email outreach. No task meter, no monthly bill.

What you will need

• A WordPress site with The Events Calendar installed and configured.
• A Lemlist account.
• The Advanced Form Integration plugin (free from WordPress.org).

Connect Lemlist to AFI

1. Log in to your Lemlist account.
2. Go to Settings → API and copy your API Key.
3. In WordPress, go to AFI → Settings → Lemlist.
4. Paste the API Key and click Save Changes.

Setting up the integration

1. Create a new integration

Go to AFI → Add New. Name it The Events Calendar to Lemlist.

2. Pick your trigger

Select The Events Calendar as the form provider. AFI fires when an event RSVP or ticket order is submitted, giving you access to attendee name, email, event title, event date, ticket type, and order total.

3. Select Lemlist as the destination

Choose Lemlist from the platform dropdown and pick Add Lead. This adds a lead to a Lemlist campaign.

4. Map fields

Match each Lemlist field on the left to the corresponding The Events Calendar field on the right. Common mappings include attendee name, email, event title, event date, ticket type, and order total. You can also use smart tags like {{_submission_date}}.

5. Add conditions if needed

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

6. Save and test

Click Save Integration. Trigger a test event in The Events Calendar. Check Lemlist 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 email, first name, and last name to Lemlist with unlimited records. Pro adds custom field mapping and campaign selection. No per-record fees on any plan.
