How to Send Quill Forms Data to Zoho People
Zoho People is a HR platform. Quill Forms manages a conversational form is completed, but sending that data to external platforms needs an integration. AFI bridges that gap to Zoho People.
Why not just use Zapier?
For connecting Quill Forms to HR, 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 Zoho People account.
- The Advanced Form Integration plugin (free from WordPress.org).
Connect Zoho People to AFI
Zoho People uses OAuth 2.0 for authentication. In AFI → Settings → Zoho People, 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 Zoho People.
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 Zoho People as the destination
Choose Zoho People from the platform dropdown and pick Add Employee. This creates an employee record in Zoho People.
4. Map fields
Match each Zoho People 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 Zoho People 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 Zoho People with unlimited records. Pro adds custom field mapping. No per-record fees on any plan.
