How to Send Spectra Pro Forms Data to Intercom
Intercom is a customer messaging platform. Events can trigger instant notifications. Here is how to pipe Spectra Pro Forms submission straight into Intercom using Advanced Form Integration. The setup takes about five minutes and runs entirely on your own server.

AFI delivers submission data straight from WordPress to Intercom. No third-party cloud, no per-task fees, and every request is logged for troubleshooting.
What you will need
- A WordPress site with Spectra Pro Forms installed and configured.
- A Intercom account.
- The Advanced Form Integration plugin (free from WordPress.org).
Connect Intercom to AFI
- Log in to your Intercom workspace.
- Go to Settings → API Keys and copy your Access Token.
- In WordPress, go to AFI → Settings → Intercom.
- Paste the Access Token and click Save Changes.
Setting up the integration
1. Create a new integration
Go to AFI → Add New. Name it Spectra Pro Forms to Intercom.
2. Pick your trigger
Select Spectra Pro Forms as the form provider. AFI fires when a form is submitted, giving you access to submitter name, email, phone, and any custom form fields.
3. Select Intercom as the destination
Choose Intercom from the platform dropdown and pick Add Contact. This creates or updates a contact in Intercom.
4. Map fields
Match each Intercom field on the left to the corresponding Spectra Pro Forms field on the right. Common mappings include submitter name, email, phone, and any custom form fields. 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 Spectra Pro Forms. Check Intercom 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 and name to Intercom with unlimited records. Pro adds custom attributes and company assignment. No per-record fees on any plan.
