How to Send weForms Data to Tidio
Tidio is a live chat platform. Events can trigger instant notifications. If you want weForms submission synced to Tidio, you could pay for a cloud automation service. Or you could do it directly from WordPress. This is the direct route.
Why connect directly?
Cloud automation tools like Zapier charge per task and route your data through external servers. AFI processes everything on your WordPress site. No per-submission fees, no external dependencies.
What you will need
- A WordPress site with weForms installed and configured.
- A Tidio account.
- The Advanced Form Integration plugin (free from WordPress.org).
Connect Tidio to AFI
- Log in to your Tidio account.
- Copy your API Key.
- In WordPress, go to AFI → Settings → Tidio.
- Paste the API Key and click Save Changes.
Setting up the integration
1. Create a new integration
Go to AFI → Add New. Name it weForms to Tidio.
2. Pick your trigger
Select weForms as the form provider. AFI fires when a form is submitted, giving you access to submitter name, email, phone, and any custom form fields.
3. Select Tidio as the destination
Choose Tidio from the platform dropdown and pick Add Contact. This creates a contact in Tidio.
4. Map fields
Match each Tidio field on the left to the corresponding weForms field on the right. Common mappings include submitter name, email, phone, and any custom form fields. You can also use smart tags like {{_submission_date}}.
5. Add conditions if needed
Only want to send certain records? Set up a conditional rule based on any field value.
6. Save and test
Click Save Integration. Trigger a test event in weForms. Check Tidio 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 Tidio with unlimited records. Pro adds custom field mapping. No per-record fees on any plan.
