Greenhouse is a recruiting platform. Here is how to pipe Contact Form 7 submissions straight into Greenhouse using Advanced Form Integration. The setup takes about five minutes and runs entirely on your own server.

Skip the automation middleman

Rather than routing data through a third-party cloud, AFI sends it directly from your WordPress server to Greenhouse. No task meter, no monthly bill.

What you will need

  • A WordPress site with Contact Form 7 installed and at least one form.
  • A Greenhouse account.
  • The Advanced Form Integration plugin (free from WordPress.org).

Connect Greenhouse to AFI

Greenhouse uses OAuth 2.0 for authentication. In AFI → Settings → Greenhouse, 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 CF7 to Greenhouse.

2. Pick your trigger

Select Contact Form 7 and choose your form. Fields are detected automatically.

3. Select Greenhouse as the destination

Choose Greenhouse and pick Add Candidate. This adds a candidate in Greenhouse.

4. Map fields

Match each Greenhouse field to the corresponding Contact Form 7 field. Smart tags like {{_submission_date}} are available.

5. Add conditions if needed

Send only specific submissions based on conditional rules.

6. Save and test

Click Save Integration. Submit a test form and verify in Greenhouse. Check AFI → Log if needed.

Free vs Pro

Free maps name, email, and phone with unlimited submissions. Pro adds custom field mapping. No per-submission fees.
