Build it Faster with Zapier
When people submit a contact form on your page, CloudSponge can trigger a workflow in Zapier. This is handy for taking action, like sending emails, without making a
complicated custom integration.
Zapier is a platform that lets you build automated workflows to connect 1000’s of web applications together, without needing to know how to write any code!
We created a Zapier integration to get you a quick win. Skip the development effort and get straight into a simple sharing feature with a contact picker.
Here’s how to achieve that quick win.
Here’s what we’re going to set up. We’ll add a script to your website that adds a referral form and Contact Picker by CloudSponge. When someone submits the form on your page, it will trigger a Zapier workflow (AKA Zap). The Zap can be set up to send an email, post a notification and just about anything else.
