MEC Zapier Integration

Running an events site often means copying the same details into several tools: a CRM, a mailing list, an accounting app. This add-on removes much of that repeat work. It sends event and booking data from Modern Events Calendar to Zapier, which links to over 2,000 apps. When an event is created, changed or cancelled, or when a new booking comes in, a Zap can pick up that data and act on it.

Data leaves the calendar in JSON format, which suits the wide range of apps Zapier supports. To build a Zap, you enter your MEC credentials and map the data fields to the app you want to feed. It fits site owners, event managers and developers who want event workflows to run on their own, from attendee notifications to summary reports for external platforms.

Features

• Event change triggers: Start a workflow when an event is created, modified or cancelled, so connected apps receive the update without anyone entering it by hand.
• Booking data capture: New bookings can be exported with details such as attendee count, transaction ID and confirmation status, ready to pass to CRM, marketing or accounting tools.
• JSON data export: Event and booking information is exported in a standard JSON format, which works with the many apps available through Zapier.
• Six event task types: Covers new events, event changes, bookings, cancellations, occurrences and event listings, so most stages of an event's life can be automated.
• Simple Zap setup: Create a Zap by entering your MEC credentials and mapping the data fields. No coding knowledge is required to build a custom workflow.
• Recurring event details: Retrieve data on recurring event instances, including occurrence information such as repeat limits and start date and time.
• Paginated event listings: List events by category or count and paginate the results, which helps when you automate reports or sync many events to another platform.
• WordPress post and page IDs: Each event uses its native WordPress post and page ID, which keeps data handling precise and gives developers a clear reference for custom workflows.
