Get Your Easy Digital Downloads Sales Report with AI
Ask for your store's numbers in plain English and get earnings, orders, refunds, and your best sellers back in one reply.
Prerequisites
A connected site running Easy Digital Downloads 3.7.1 or newer on WordPress 6.9 or newer. Reports are read-only, so nothing needs to be switched on.
I run my store on Easy Digital Downloads. Give me a sales report for [period, for example: the last 30 days, this month, last quarter, or September 1 to September 15]. Use the Easy Digital Downloads abilities, and only the read-only ones: do not create or change anything. Show me gross earnings, net earnings, number of orders, refunds (count and amount), and average order value for that period. Then list my published products and run the same report for each one, and give me a table of products sorted by earnings with units sold and share of total revenue. If I have more than 25 products, do the top 25 by recent orders and tell me you stopped there. Add the store's summary for this month against last month so I can see the direction. Finish with three plain observations from the data, such as a product that carries the store or one that has not sold at all, and tell me the exact period and currency the numbers cover so I can check them against my reports screen.

Run the “Get Your Easy Digital Downloads Sales Report with AI” recipe from the WPVibe cookbook on my connected site.
You know roughly how the store is doing, but the real numbers live behind three report screens and a date picker. Checking how last month compared to this one, or which product is carrying the store, means clicking through filters and copying figures somewhere you can read them side by side. So it happens at tax time and not much in between.
You ask the question and the AI reads the answer from Easy Digital Downloads directly, using the store's own reporting abilities. It pulls gross and net earnings, order and refund counts, and average order value for the period you name, then runs the same report per product so you can see what actually sold. Everything in this recipe is read-only. Nothing in your store changes.
Paste the prompt and name your period. Presets like last 30 days, this month, last quarter, and this year work, and so does an exact date range. Two things worth knowing: the per-product view is one lookup per product, so on a catalog of hundreds ask for your top sellers by name instead of everything, and the numbers are whatever Easy Digital Downloads has recorded, so orders you took outside the store will not be in them.
Outcome
A sales report for the period you asked about, with earnings, order count, refunds, average order value, and a product-by-product breakdown.
