How to Send Gravity Forms Submissions to Rapidmail

Rapidmail is a email marketing platform for managing subscribers and campaigns. Here is how to pipe Gravity Forms submissions straight into Rapidmail using Advanced Form Integration. The setup takes about five minutes and runs entirely on your own server.

The direct approach

AFI delivers form data straight from WordPress to Rapidmail. No third-party cloud, no per-task fees, and every request is logged for troubleshooting.

What you will need

• A WordPress site with Gravity Forms installed and at least one form.
• A Rapidmail account.
• The Advanced Form Integration plugin (free from WordPress.org).

Connect Rapidmail to AFI

1. Log in to your Rapidmail account.
2. Go to Settings → API and copy your API Key.
3. In WordPress, go to AFI → Settings → Rapidmail.
4. Paste the API Key and click Save Changes.

Setting up the integration

1. Create a new integration

Go to AFI → Add New. Name it Gravity Forms to Rapidmail.

2. Pick your trigger

Select Gravity Forms as the form provider and choose the form you want to connect. AFI detects the fields automatically.

3. Select Rapidmail as the destination

Choose Rapidmail from the platform dropdown and pick Add Subscriber. This adds a subscriber to a Rapidmail list.

4. Map fields

Match each Rapidmail field on the left to the corresponding Gravity Forms field on the right. You can also use smart tags like {{_submission_date}} and {{utm_source}}.

5. Add conditions if needed

Only want to send certain submissions? Set up a conditional rule based on any form field value.

6. Save and test

Click Save Integration. Fill out your Gravity form and submit. Check Rapidmail to confirm the data arrived. If anything looks wrong, open AFI → Log to see the exact request and response.

Free vs Pro

The free version maps email and name to Rapidmail with unlimited submissions. Pro adds custom field mapping. No per-submission fees on any plan.
