How to Send Quill Forms Data to Nutshell

Nutshell is a CRM that helps you manage contacts and track interactions. Here is how to pipe Quill Forms submission straight into Nutshell using Advanced Form Integration. The setup takes about five minutes and runs entirely on your own server.

Skip the automation middleman

Rather than routing data through a third-party cloud, AFI sends it directly from your WordPress server to CRM. No task meter, no monthly bill.

What you will need

• A WordPress site with Quill Forms installed and configured.
• A Nutshell account.
• The Advanced Form Integration plugin (free from WordPress.org).

Connect Nutshell to AFI

1. Get your Nutshell API credentials.
2. In WordPress, go to AFI → Settings → Nutshell.
3. Enter your email and API Key.
4. Click Save Changes.

Setting up the integration

1. Create a new integration

Go to AFI → Add New. Name it Quill Forms to Nutshell.

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 Nutshell as the destination

Choose Nutshell from the platform dropdown and pick Add Lead. This creates a lead in Nutshell.

4. Map fields

Match each Nutshell 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 Nutshell 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 name, email, and phone to Nutshell with unlimited records. Pro adds custom field mapping. No per-record fees on any plan.
