I’ve had a look through the questions here and other places online, without much luck. Hoping someone here can help regarding Acuity Scheduler and MemberPress.

What I want to do is when someone books (and pays for) a specific appointment type in Acuity for a Zap to then create a Member in MemberPress (I can do that bit) but I really would like it to also assign that member to a Membership in MemberPress (I can not figure that bit out). Any help greatly appreciated.

Hi ​@S210,

 

Welcome to the Community.

 

Automating MemberPress membership assignments from Acuity Scheduler bookings via Zapier is challenging since Zapier doesn’t natively support assigning memberships. However, you can create a new member when a specific appointment is booked. For advanced users, a possible workaround is using Zapier’s Webhooks to send a POST request to MemberPress’s API (if supported). If unsure, contacting MemberPress support for guidance is recommended. Be sure to test each step thoroughly.

 

I hope this helps. Please let me know if you have any questions.

Thank you for your response - I’m really not an advanced user but I’ll have a quick look at the webhooks option. I figured out how I can manually add a Member to a Membership once a Zap has created a new member, so if need be I can add that to a workflow. I’m having a think about other options too.

Hi there, ​@S210 👋

To add a member to a membership you’d want to use the MemberPress app’s Create Transaction action, after the Create Member action. It has a Membership field where you can select the membership to be applied:

Note: In the Member field on that action, make sure you map the ID output by the Create Member action. That should ensure it adds the membership to the correct member.

Give that a try and let us know how you get on. Happy to help further if you get stuck at all! 🙂

Thanks Sam I retried that and come up with this error 

Failed to create a transaction in MemberPress

The app returned "user_id (0) must be a valid number".

I do have a manual workaround though so if I can’t figure this out quickly I’ll go with the manual workaround.

Sorry to hear you’re running into that error, ​@S210!

Hmm, looking at the Member field for the Create Transaction action it looks like it’s expecting to receive the “The Member's WordPress User ID”. 🤔

Can you take a look at the member in MemberPress and confirm that their ID number matches the one that the Create Transaction was using for that test that errored? And check that their WordPress User ID is the same? Just want to double-check that the ID selected from the Create Member action matches the member’s WordPress User ID.

If you can also send a screenshot showing the current setup of that Create Transaction action that’ll help me to make sure everything’s correct on that side as well. Make sure to blur or remove all personal information (names, emails, addresses etc.) from screenshots before sharing - you can use a tool like Zappy for that.

Looking forward to hearing from you!
