How to Send Happy Forms Submissions to Knack
Knack is a database platform. Getting Happy Forms submissions into Knack does not require external tools. Advanced Form Integration handles it natively, and this guide covers every step.
The direct approach
AFI delivers form data straight from WordPress to Knack. No third-party cloud, no per-task fees, and every request is logged for troubleshooting.
What you will need
- A WordPress site with Happy Forms installed and at least one form.
- A Knack account.
- The Advanced Form Integration plugin (free from WordPress.org).
Connect Knack to AFI
- Log in to your Knack account.
- Copy your App ID and API Key.
- In WordPress, go to AFI → Settings → Knack.
- Enter the credentials and click Save.
Setting up the integration
1. Create a new integration
Go to AFI → Add New. Name it Happy Forms to Knack.
2. Pick your trigger
Select Happy Forms as the form provider and choose the form you want to connect. AFI detects the fields automatically.
3. Select Knack as the destination
Choose Knack from the platform dropdown and pick Add Record. This creates a record in a Knack app.
4. Map fields
Match each Knack field on the left to the corresponding Happy 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 Happy Forms form and submit. Check Knack 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 standard app fields to Knack with unlimited submissions. Pro adds custom field mapping. No per-submission fees on any plan.
Frequently asked questions

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 forms?
Yes. Create a separate integration for each form, or send one form to multiple platforms.
