How to Send Gravity Forms Submissions to Zoho Desk
Zoho Desk is a helpdesk platform. Getting Gravity Forms data into Zoho Desk 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 Desk. No task meter, no monthly bill.
What you will need
- A WordPress site with Gravity Forms installed and at least one form.
- A Zoho Desk account.
- The Advanced Form Integration plugin (free from WordPress.org).
Connect Zoho Desk to AFI
Zoho Desk uses OAuth 2.0 for authentication. In AFI → Settings → Zoho Desk, 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 Gravity Forms to Zoho Desk.
2. Pick your trigger
Select Gravity Forms as the form provider and choose the form you want to connect. AFI detects the fields automatically.
3. Select Zoho Desk as the destination
Choose Zoho Desk from the platform dropdown and pick Add Ticket. This creates a ticket in Zoho Desk.
4. Map fields
Match each Zoho Desk field on the left to the corresponding Gravity Forms field on the right. You can also use smart tags like {{_submission_date}} and {{utm_source}}.
5. Add conditions if needed
Only want to send certain submissions? Set up a conditional rule based on any form field value.
6. Save and test
Click Save Integration. Fill out your Gravity form and submit. Check Zoho Desk 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 subject, description, email, and name to Zoho Desk with unlimited submissions. Pro adds custom field mapping and department selection. No per-submission fees on any plan.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need coding skills?
No. Everything is configured through a visual interface, including field mapping.
Will adding this slow down my form?
No. AFI sends data to the destination after the form submission completes. Your visitors see the normal confirmation message without any delay.
Can I connect multiple Gravity Forms?
Yes. Create a separate integration for each form, or send one form to multiple platforms.
