How to Send Quill Forms Data to Google Calendar
Google Calendar is a calendar platform. If you want Quill Forms submission synced to Google Calendar, you could pay for a cloud automation service. Or you could do it directly from WordPress. This is the direct route.
Why connect directly?
Cloud automation tools like Zapier charge per task and route your data through external servers. AFI processes everything on your WordPress site. No per-submission fees, no external dependencies.
What you will need
- A WordPress site with Quill Forms installed and configured.
- A Google Calendar account.
- The Advanced Form Integration plugin (free from WordPress.org).
Connect Google Calendar to AFI
Google Calendar uses OAuth 2.0 for authentication. In AFI → Settings → Google Calendar, 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 Quill Forms to Google Calendar.
2. Pick your trigger
Select Quill Forms as the form provider. AFI fires when a conversational form is completed, giving you access to respondent name, email, phone, and any custom form answers.
3. Select Google Calendar as the destination
Choose Google Calendar from the platform dropdown and pick Create Event. This creates an event in Google Calendar.
4. Map fields
Match each Google Calendar field on the left to the corresponding Quill Forms field on the right. Common mappings include respondent name, email, phone, and any custom form answers. You can also use smart tags like {{_submission_date}}.
5. Add conditions if needed
Only want to send certain records? Set up a conditional rule based on any field value.
6. Save and test
Click Save Integration. Trigger a test event in Quill Forms. Check Google Calendar 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 title, date, and description to Google Calendar with unlimited records. Pro adds custom field mapping. No per-record fees on any plan.
