How to Send Quill Forms Data to Twilio
Twilio is a SMS and voice platform. Here is how to pipe Quill Forms submission straight into Twilio 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 SMS and voice. No task meter, no monthly bill.
What you will need
- A WordPress site with Quill Forms installed and configured.
- A Twilio account.
- The Advanced Form Integration plugin (free from WordPress.org).
Connect Twilio to AFI
- Get your Twilio Account SID and Auth Token.
- In WordPress, go to AFI → Settings → Twilio.
- Enter the SID and Token.
- Click Save Changes.
Setting up the integration
1. Create a new integration
Go to AFI → Add New. Name it Quill Forms to Twilio.
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 Twilio as the destination
Choose Twilio from the platform dropdown and pick Send SMS. This sends an SMS via Twilio.
4. Map fields
Match each Twilio 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 Twilio 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 to number and message body to Twilio with unlimited records. Pro adds custom field mapping. No per-record fees on any plan.
