Loving EE!
We’re debating switching to the infusionsoft crm because of the EE plugin available. We need to make sure that we can collect a date (specifically the ‘event date’) through EE and pass it into to the CRM as a date. We can’t pass it through as a text string “2015/05/01” it needs to be a true ‘date’ in infusionsoft.
We are using recurring events, so the date of the event is a the important distinction that we need access to in the CRM when viewing attendees that have ported over.
Don’t want to have to buy infusionsoft to test this one out.

It sounds like something that is possible, but might require a little custom coding to make it work. We send the attendee to IS as a “contact”, the event as a “product”, and then generate an IS order to link the contact to the product.
Where were you intending to put the event date into IS? Do you have any documentation from IS that we can reference?
Dates are usually passed as either a formatted string, or as a unix timestamp. Either way, converting from one to another is fairly easy with php’s built in functions.

Thank you! I have recurring events set-up so I wanted to avoid creating a new product for each event, and instead attach the date of the recurring event to the order.. The product would match up to the event category.
Is this doable

Hello Angel,
The products are only created in Infusionsoft when someone registers for the event.
