Fluent Forms collects the sign-ups, demo requests and quote forms on your WordPress site; ActiveCampaign runs the email and the sales pipeline. FlowMattic passes each entry across as a contact, adds it to the right list or automation, opens deals for quote requests and can even change what the visitor sees after submitting, based on what ActiveCampaign already knows.

1. TriggerNew Form Submission2. ActionCreate or Update ContactWhen Fluent Forms fires New Form Submission, FlowMattic runs Create or Update Contact in ActiveCampaign 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 templateA Router reads the form or a hidden source field. Demo requests and content downloads each get their own contact fields and follow-up in ActiveCampaign.
New Form SubmissionRouterCreate or Update Contact
View the template The contact is created or updated first, then subscribed to the list your newsletter goes to, so nobody is added twice.
New Form SubmissionCreate or Update ContactSubscribe or Unsubscribe Contact From List
Someone who asks for a guide is added to the automation that delivers it and follows up over the next days.

Sales gets a deal in the pipeline with the requested budget and scope saved as a deal note, instead of a quote email sitting in an inbox.

Find Contact checks the email. Known contacts see a welcome back message after submitting, new visitors see the standard one.
New Form SubmissionFind ContactBranchSet Custom Response
Payment entries tag the contact as a customer, so ActiveCampaign stops sending them sales emails for the product they just bought.
New Payment Submission (Pro)Create or Update ContactAdd/Remove Tag From Contact
Leads who match your criteria, such as company size, are redirected to a booking link after submitting, while everyone else lands on the normal thank-you page.

At the end, every Fluent Forms entry becomes an ActiveCampaign contact, with demo requests and downloads handled on separate paths.
In Fluent Forms, add a hidden field such as source with values like demo or download, or use separate forms.
Under Connects, add ActiveCampaign with your account URL and API key. Fluent Forms runs on this site and needs no connection.
Create a workflow with Fluent Forms and New Form Submission, choose the form and send a test entry.
Add a Router with one path per source, and Create or Update Contact on each path with its own tags or fields. Test both paths and switch on.

Fields mapped from the earlier steps (a typical setup)

| Last name | Last name |
| Phone | Phone |
| Source hidden field | Custom field: Lead source |
A trigger starts a workflow. An action is something FlowMattic does in the app as a step.
Fluent Forms and ActiveCampaign connect through FlowMattic on your own site, with no separate automation account in the middle and no charge per run.
Because the lookup happens during the submission, the thank-you message or redirect can depend on whether ActiveCampaign already knows the visitor.
Form data goes from Fluent Forms to ActiveCampaign through your own WordPress site, with unlimited runs on every plan.
One entry can update the contact, add a tag, open a deal and start an automation in a single workflow.
Start a workflow with the Fluent Forms New Form Submission trigger and add ActiveCampaign Create or Update Contact. Map email and name fields, then add list, tag or automation steps after it.
No. Create or Update Contact matches on email, so a returning person's contact is updated rather than added again.
Yes. After the contact is saved, add Add Existing Contact to Automation and pick the automation. Use Remove Contact From Automation in another workflow to stop it.
Yes. Look the email up with Find Contact, then use Branch and Set Custom Response so known contacts and new visitors see different text.
No. FlowMattic talks to ActiveCampaign through the connection you add under Connects, so the form and the workflow both stay inside your WordPress site.
