How to Send Gravity Forms Submissions to Todoist
Todoist is a task management platform. Gravity Forms is one of the most powerful form plugins for WordPress. Todoist is where that data needs to go. Here is how to connect them without Zapier or code.
Why not just use Zapier?
For connecting Gravity Forms to task management, a cloud automation service adds cost and a dependency on an external server. AFI runs on your site with no task limits.
What you will need
- A WordPress site with Gravity Forms installed and at least one form.
- A Todoist account.
- The Advanced Form Integration plugin (free from WordPress.org).
Connect Todoist to AFI
Todoist uses OAuth 2.0 for authentication. In AFI → Settings → Todoist, 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 Gravity Forms to Todoist.
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 Todoist as the destination
Choose Todoist from the platform dropdown and pick Create Task. This creates a task in Todoist.
4. Map fields
Match each Todoist 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 Todoist 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 title and description to Todoist with unlimited submissions. Pro adds project selection. No per-submission fees on any plan.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need coding skills?
No. Everything is configured through a visual interface, including field mapping.
Will adding this slow down my form?
No. AFI sends data to the destination after the form submission completes. Your visitors see the normal confirmation message without any delay.
Can I connect multiple Gravity Forms?
Yes. Create a separate integration for each form, or send one form to multiple platforms.
