Connect WSForms and Google Sheets

WS Form handles calculations, file uploads and repeatable sections. FlowMattic takes each submission from your WordPress site and writes it to Google Sheets the way your team wants to read it: totals formatted, upload links in their own column and repeated items on rows of their own.

1. TriggerNew Form Submission

2. ActionAdd New Row

When WSForms 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

WSForms and Google Sheets workflows you can build

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.

Add each WS Form submission as a row

Every field you collect lands in its own column, so applications, orders or enquiries can be sorted and shared without logging in to WordPress.

Ready-made template

Log only submissions that pick a certain plan

A Filter checks whether a field contains a word, such as Enterprise in the plan field, so the sales sheet gets only the enquiries it should chase.

Write calculated quote totals as clean numbers

WS Form calculators produce a total. Number Formatter fixes the decimals before it is written, so the quote column can be summed for a monthly pipeline figure.

Put one row in the sheet per repeated item

An event form with a repeatable attendee section sends a list. The Iterator writes each attendee as a row, which makes a name-badge list straight away.

Send each department's form to its own spreadsheet

A Branch reads the department field and writes HR requests, IT tickets and facilities requests to separate spreadsheets that each team owns.

Keep file upload links beside the entry

Applications with a CV or photo upload get the file link in a column. Text Formatter wraps it in a link formula, so reviewers open it from the row they score.

Set up: each submission as a row

At the end, each WS Form submission is written to your Google Sheet as a new row.

Create the columns
Add a header row with one column per WS Form field you want to keep, for example Name, Email, Plan, Total and Upload.
Connect Google Sheets
Under Connects in FlowMattic, add a Google Sheets connection with an account that can edit the spreadsheet.
Capture a submission
Create a workflow with WSForms and New Form Submission, then submit the form once with every field filled so all fields are captured.
Map and switch on
Add Google Sheets Add New Row, map each field to its column, test the step and switch the workflow on.

Triggers and actions in this pair

A trigger starts a workflow. An action is something FlowMattic does in the app as a step.

Good to know

Fields depend on your WS Form, so the mapping above is an example. Fill every field in the test submission, including optional ones, or they will not be offered for mapping.
Repeatable sections arrive as a list. Use the Iterator when you want one row per item, or write the whole list into one cell.
Hidden and calculated fields are part of the submission too, which is a handy way to pass a page name or campaign value into the sheet.

Why run this pair with FlowMattic

WSForms and Google Sheets connect through FlowMattic on your own site, with no separate automation account in the middle and no charge per run.

Advanced forms, readable sheets

Calculations, uploads and repeatable sections are turned into tidy columns and rows instead of one long blob of text.

Everything on your own site

WS Form and FlowMattic both run in your WordPress install, so form data goes from your server to Google and nowhere else.

As many forms as you like

Runs are unlimited, so adding another WS Form or another department's sheet never moves you to a bigger plan.

Common questions

How do I send WS Form submissions to Google Sheets?

Create a FlowMattic workflow with the WSForms New Form Submission trigger, submit the form once, then add Google Sheets Add New Row and map the fields to columns. Test it and switch it on.

Can I save only certain submissions?

Yes. Add a Filter step that continues only when a field contains a value, for example the plan field contains Enterprise or a consent checkbox is ticked.

How are repeatable sections handled?

They come through as a list of items. An Iterator step loops over that list and runs Add New Row once per item, so each attendee or product gets its own row.

Can uploaded files go to the sheet?

The file link can. Map the upload field's URL into a column. The file itself stays where WS Form saved it on your site.

Can one form write to different spreadsheets?

Yes. Use a Branch or Router on a field such as department, and give each path its own Add New Row step pointed at the right spreadsheet.
