How it works

Every step, explained

Import the template and this whole chain runs on autopilot — here's exactly what happens on each run.

Fluent Forms → Branch → Airtable
5 steps
Fluent Forms
TRIGGER
Fluent Forms · New Form Submission
The workflow starts automatically when a new form submission is received in Fluent Forms. FlowMattic captures that data for the steps below.
Branch
LOGIC
Branch · Valid email address?
The Branch evaluates "Valid email address?": when it's true the Yes path runs, otherwise the No path runs — two outcomes, one workflow.
Airtable
ACTION
Airtable · Create Record
On the Yes path (condition met) — Airtable — creates a new record. Data is mapped from earlier steps; connect your Airtable account on import.
Slack
ACTION
Slack · Send Channel Message
On the No path (otherwise) — Slack — post or Schedule a new message to a specific #channel. Data is mapped from earlier steps; connect your Slack account on import.
Google Sheets
ACTION
Google Sheets · New Spreadsheet Row
On the No path (otherwise) — Google Sheets — trigger when a new row is added to the spreadsheet. Data is mapped from earlier steps; connect your Google Sheets account on import.
