Smartlead is a cold email outreach platform for managing subscribers and campaigns. Quill Forms manages a conversational form is completed, but sending that data to external platforms needs an integration. AFI bridges that gap to Smartlead.

Why not just use Zapier?

For connecting Quill Forms to cold email outreach, a cloud automation service adds cost and a dependency on an external server. AFI runs on your site with no task limits.

What you will need

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

Connect Smartlead to AFI

  1. Log in to your Smartlead account.
  2. Go to Settings → API and copy your API Key.
  3. In WordPress, go to AFI → Settings → Smartlead.
  4. Paste the API Key and click Save Changes.

Setting up the integration

1. Create a new integration

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

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 Smartlead as the destination

Choose Smartlead from the platform dropdown and pick Add Lead. This adds a lead to a Smartlead campaign.

4. Map fields

Match each Smartlead 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 Smartlead 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 email, first name, and last name to Smartlead with unlimited records. Pro adds custom field mapping and campaign selection. No per-record fees on any plan.
