Tidio
Tidio is a customer support platform. Advanced Form Integration sends form submissions to Tidio, so every form entry on your WordPress site can create or update records automatically without manual data entry.
What you’ll need
- An active Tidio account.
- An API token from Tidio (see below).
- The Advanced Form Integration plugin installed and activated.

Tidio authenticates with a bearer token.
- Sign in to your Tidio account.
- Open Settings → API or the developer/integrations section.
- Generate or copy your API Token (sometimes called a Personal Access Token).
- Paste it in AFI → Settings → Tidio.

- Click Add New Account and paste the API key or token.
- Give the account a name you will recognise.
- Click Save.
Create the integration
- Go to AFI → Add New.

Conditional logic example
Only send data to Tidio when the form’s email field is not empty, so test submissions or incomplete entries do not create records. Add a condition: Email is not empty.
Troubleshooting
Nothing arrives in Tidio
Open AFI → Log and find the most recent entry for this integration. AFI stores the request it sent and the raw response it got back. If there is no log entry at all, the trigger never fired: re-check the form selection and submit a real test entry from the front end.
API key rejected
Copy the key directly from Tidio with no leading or trailing spaces. If the key was revoked or regenerated, update it in AFI → Settings → Tidio.
