How to Send Contact Form 7 Submissions to Zoho Creator

Zoho Creator is a database platform. Getting Contact Form 7 data into Zoho Creator 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 Zoho Creator. No task meter, no monthly bill.

What you will need

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

Connect Zoho Creator to AFI

Zoho Creator uses OAuth 2.0 for authentication. In AFI → Settings → Zoho Creator, 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 Zoho Creator.

2. Pick your trigger

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

3. Select Zoho Creator as the destination

Choose Zoho Creator and pick Add Record. This creates a record in Zoho Creator.

4. Map fields

Match each Zoho Creator 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 Zoho Creator. Check AFI → Log if needed.

Free vs Pro

Free maps standard form fields with unlimited submissions. Pro adds custom field mapping. No per-submission fees.
