Forms

Jotform

Turn each Jotform submission into a text to the person, to you, or both.

What you can do

  • Send each person who submits a form a text from your own number.
  • Text yourself a short summary of every submission.
  • Send the person and yourself a text from the same submission.

How it connects

  • Recommended

    Text Hook

    A Text Hook is a BlueBot address the app posts its own webhook to. You map its fields to a recipient and a template, and each post becomes a text.

    Text Hook in the docs
  • Zapier

    BlueBot’s Zapier app has a Send Text action and instant triggers for incoming texts and every change of state.
