How to Send Avada Forms Submissions to Mailshake
Mailshake is a email outreach platform for managing subscribers and campaigns. If you want Avada Forms data in Mailshake, you could pay for a cloud automation service. Or you could do it directly from WordPress. This is the direct route.
Why not just use Zapier?
For connecting your forms to email outreach, 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 Avada Forms installed and at least one form.
- A Mailshake account.
- The Advanced Form Integration plugin (free from WordPress.org).
Connect Mailshake to AFI
- Log in to your Mailshake account.
- Go to Settings → API and generate an API Key.
- In WordPress, go to AFI → Settings → Mailshake.
- Paste the API Key and click Save Changes.
Setting up the integration
1. Create a new integration
Go to AFI → Add New. Name it Avada Forms to Mailshake.
2. Pick your trigger
Select Avada Forms as the form provider and choose the form you want to connect. AFI detects the fields automatically.
3. Select Mailshake as the destination
Choose Mailshake from the platform dropdown and pick Add Lead. This adds a lead to a Mailshake campaign.
4. Map fields
Match each Mailshake field on the left to the corresponding Avada 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 Avada Forms form and submit. Check Mailshake 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, first name, and last name to Mailshake with unlimited submissions. Pro adds custom field mapping and campaign selection. No per-submission fees on any plan.
