Welcome to Form Connector App! This guide will walk you through the first essential steps to set up the app for the first time.

Make sure you have already given permissions to Form Connector App, for more information here are some articles than can help you out:


Now, let's get started!

STEP 1: SET A SOFTWARE DESTINATION

The first step is to set up a software destination where your form data will be sent. This process includes authorizing Form Connector App to access your chosen software tool.
  • Choose your First Integration: 

    Pick from Free Connectors like Google Sheets, Airtable, and Notion, or explore Pro Connectors such as Salesforce

    You can also suggest new integrations using the yellow feedback banner inside the app.

Step 2: set up onboarding and notifications settings

Let's make sure your forms are ready to roll! This step helps us know who to contact if there's an issue with a form submission, and customizes your onboarding experience. Make sure you provide accurate information in case we need to reach out.

Simply fill out the fields, make sure you check the box to give us permissions to send notifications, and hit Submit to move on to the next step!

Step 3: Select the form you wish to connect

Use the dropdown to select the page containing the form you want to map.

  • Differentiate between component-based forms and static forms for seamless mapping.
  • After selecting your form, click Map this form to continue.

Step 4: Map Fields to destinations

The final step is to map your Webflow form fields to the corresponding fields in your software destination.
  • Map Fields:
    Select the fields from your Webflow form and map them to the appropriate fields in your destination software. You can add or remove fields as necessary. Learn more about mapping fields on our Map a new Form Guide.

  • Toggle Connector Status: Connector Status allows you to choose if your connection will be live and active, or saved as a draft. In your home menu you can see how many active and inactive forms you have. Learn more on editing connected forms 
  • Save and Go Live:
    Once you have mapped all necessary fields, click "Save." You will receive a success notification confirming that the connection is live if you toggle the connector status active. If you disable the connector status, a message will be presented confirming you successfully saved a Draft. Connector Status let you choose if your connection will be live and active, or saved as a draft.
