How to Send Contact Form 7 Submissions to Smartsheet
Smartsheet is a project management tool for organizing work and collaborating. Getting Contact Form 7 data into Smartsheet does not require external tools. Advanced Form Integration handles it natively, and this guide covers every step.
Skip the automation middleman
Rather than routing data through a third-party cloud, AFI sends it directly from your WordPress server to Smartsheet. No task meter, no monthly bill.
What you will need
- A WordPress site with Contact Form 7 installed and at least one form.
- A Smartsheet account.
- The Advanced Form Integration plugin (free from WordPress.org).
Connect Smartsheet to AFI
Smartsheet uses OAuth 2.0 for authentication. In AFI → Settings → Smartsheet, 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 Smartsheet.
2. Pick your trigger
Select Contact Form 7 and choose your form. Fields are detected automatically.
3. Select Smartsheet as the destination
Choose Smartsheet and pick Add Row. This adds a row to a Smartsheet.
4. Map fields
Match each Smartsheet 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 Smartsheet. Check AFI → Log if needed.
Free vs Pro
Free maps standard sheet columns with unlimited submissions. Pro adds custom column mapping. No per-submission fees.
