Forms

Typeform

Text each person who fills in a form from your own number within seconds.

What you can do

  • Text each person who fills in a form from your own number as soon as they submit it.
  • Put each person into a follow-up sequence that stops when they reply.
  • Text yourself the answers to each new entry.

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.
