Contact Form 7 sends you an email and keeps nothing else. Connect it to Google Sheets with FlowMattic and every enquiry also lands as a row your team can sort, filter and share. It suits site owners, agencies and small teams who answer enquiries from a spreadsheet rather than an inbox.

1. TriggerNew Form Submission2. ActionAdd New RowWhen Contact Form 7 fires New Form Submission, FlowMattic runs Add New Row in Google Sheets with the data from that event.
You build this in the FlowMattic workflow builder on your own site. See the setup steps
Each one uses only triggers and actions the two integrations ship today, plus FlowMattic's own tools. Where the library has a ready-made template, import it instead of building from scratch.
Ready-made templateThe simplest record of who wrote in and what they asked. Each submission becomes one row, so nothing depends on the notification email reaching the right inbox.

View the template Ready-made templateA Filter checks the message field for a word such as quote or pricing and stops the run otherwise, so the sheet holds sales enquiries and not every hello.

View the template Ready-made templateMessages can arrive with markup and line breaks that make a cell hard to read. Text Formatter cleans the text before it is written, so the column reads like plain sentences.

View the template If your form has a subject dropdown, a Router reads the choice and writes the row to the tab for that team, so each person opens a sheet with only their own enquiries.

Get Row Count reads how many rows the sheet already has and Number Formatter turns that into the next reference, which you can quote back to the visitor and find later.

Ready-made templateThe sheet keeps the record and an Email (SMTP) step tells the people who answer enquiries that a new one is waiting, with a link to the sheet in the message.

View the template The AI Agent reads the message and returns a label such as lead, support, partnership or spam. The label goes in its own column, so sorting the sheet takes one click.

When you finish, each submission of the form you choose is written to your spreadsheet as a new row.
Create a spreadsheet with a header row such as Name, Email, Subject and Message, so every column is ready to map.
In FlowMattic, open Connects and add a Google Sheets connection with an account that can edit that spreadsheet.
Create a workflow, pick Contact Form 7 and New Form Submission, choose your form, then submit it once on your site so FlowMattic captures the fields.
Add a Google Sheets step with Add New Row, pick the spreadsheet and tab, map each form field to its column, test the step and turn the workflow on.

A trigger starts a workflow. An action is something FlowMattic does in the app as a step.
Contact Form 7 and Google Sheets connect through FlowMattic on your own site, with no separate automation account in the middle and no charge per run.
Contact Form 7 already runs on your WordPress site, and so does FlowMattic, so visitor messages go from the form to Google without another company's automation account in between.
Runs are unlimited on every plan, so a contact form that gets busy after a campaign or a press mention costs the same as one that is quiet.
The same submission can also create a FluentCRM contact, post to a team channel or send a reply, all as later steps after the row is written.
Out of the box it emails them to you. With this workflow each submission is also written to Google Sheets, which gives you a list you can search, sort and share with the people who reply.
Yes. Build one workflow per form and point both at the same spreadsheet, either on one tab with a column for the form name or on a tab each.
Add a Filter after the trigger. It can stop the run when the message contains links or a word you choose, or when a required field is empty. An AI Agent step can also label likely spam so you can sort it out.
New fields are not mapped automatically. After you add a field to the form, add a column to the sheet, submit a test entry and map the new field in the Add New Row step.
Yes. Use a Date/Time Formatter step to produce the date in the format you like and map it to a Date column, so you can sort enquiries by when they arrived.
