How to Send Contact Form 7 Submissions to Microsoft Teams
Microsoft Teams is a messaging platform. Form submissions can trigger instant notifications. Every Contact Form 7 submission should flow into Microsoft Teams without manual effort. This guide shows how to set that up in five minutes.
Skip the automation middleman
Rather than routing data through a third-party cloud, AFI sends it directly from your WordPress server to Microsoft Teams. No task meter, no monthly bill.
What you will need
- A WordPress site with Contact Form 7 installed and at least one form.
- A Microsoft Teams account.
- The Advanced Form Integration plugin (free from WordPress.org).
Connect Microsoft Teams to AFI
Microsoft Teams uses OAuth 2.0 for authentication. In AFI → Settings → Microsoft Teams, click Authorize and grant access. This is a one-time step.
Setting up the integration
1. Create a new integration
Go to AFI → Add New. Name it CF7 to Microsoft Teams.
2. Pick your trigger
Select Contact Form 7 and choose your form. Fields are detected automatically.
3. Select Microsoft Teams as the destination
Choose Microsoft Teams and pick Send Message. This sends a message to a Microsoft Teams channel.
4. Map fields
Match each Microsoft Teams field to the corresponding Contact Form 7 field. Smart tags like {{_submission_date}} are available.
5. Add conditions if needed
Send only specific submissions based on conditional rules.
6. Save and test
Click Save Integration. Submit a test form and verify in Microsoft Teams. Check AFI → Log if needed.
Free vs Pro
Free maps message text with unlimited submissions. Pro adds channel selection via webhook. No per-submission fees.
