Integrate forms with Zapier

Last Update: February 27, 2025

Zapier is an automation service similar to IFTTT (IF This Then That). Zapier regularly checks for a trigger on the apps you’ve chosen, if the trigger occurred Zapier will perform an action or even multiple actions.

Note
Integrations are only available for plugin subscribers with Advanced plans (and above) and Elementor Hosting users with Business plans (and above) or Sell+ Pro plans (and above).

What does Zapier have to do with Elementor?

One of the most powerful features of Elementor is its Form widget. With this widget, you can create forms and start collecting leads on your site. This is a crucial step for any growing business.

The collected leads can be automatically adding to email marketing automation and CRM services that have already been integrated to Elementor. These include MailChimp, MailPoet, ActiveCampaign, Campaign Monitor, GetResponse, Drip, and Hubspot.

You can also set the forms to integrate with Zapier, thus connecting them to the over 1000+ services that are hooked to Zapier.

The process of connecting Elementor forms to Zapier is a bit longer than the usual integrations. It includes creating a trigger in Zapier from Elementor. Once an Elementor form is sent the Zapier trigger is fired. After this, the action or actions are made, causing the form submission to enter the integrated service.

This two-stepΒ process of creating the trigger and action is all done with Zapier, therefore you’ll need to create the trigger in Zapier. One of the most common types of triggers is a webhook, which is a way for Elementor to send real-time data to Zapier. In the example below, an Elementor form will integrate a Zapier webhook.

Inside Your Own Website

  1. Go to Zapier and create a webhook.
  2. Open the page containing the form you want to add the webhook to and select the form.

  3. Open the Actions After Submit field.
    Go to your website, and inside Elementor, edit the form you want to get integrated to Zapier. Under Actions after submit, add Webhook.

3. Save the page, and go to the live version of the page. Now, submit the form. This sends the Webhook to Zapier, to confirm the hook we created.

Create the Action That Zapier Performs

In this part, we create the action that follows our trigger. As a reminder, the trigger is the Elementor form submission.

Let’s choose one of the 1,000+ apps to show how to add the action to Zapier. I’ll go ahead and choose MailerLite.
