How to Send Quill Forms Data to DirectIQ

DirectIQ is a email marketing platform for managing subscribers and campaigns. If you want Quill Forms submission synced to DirectIQ, 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 Quill Forms installed and configured.
• A DirectIQ account.
• The Advanced Form Integration plugin (free from WordPress.org).

Connect DirectIQ to AFI

Setting up the integration

1. Create a new integration

Go to AFI → Add New. Name it Quill Forms to DirectIQ.

2. Pick your trigger

Select Quill Forms as the form provider. AFI fires when a conversational form is completed, giving you access to respondent name, email, phone, and any custom form answers.

3. Select DirectIQ as the destination

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

4. Map fields

Match each DirectIQ field on the left to the corresponding Quill Forms field on the right. Common mappings include respondent name, email, phone, and any custom form answers. 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 Quill Forms. Check DirectIQ 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 DirectIQ with unlimited records. Pro adds custom field mapping. No per-record fees on any plan.
