Connect Gravity Forms to Google Sheets With Zapier

Stop wasting time on manual data entry. While Gravity Forms is the most powerful way to collect data on WordPress, the real magic happens when you move that data where you need it most.

By connecting Gravity Forms to Google Sheets via Zapier, you turn your website into a 24/7 automated data assistant. Whether you’re tracking leads, managing event registrations, or building a custom CRM, this integration ensures your spreadsheet stays updated in real-time—without you ever lifting a finger.

Why Sync Gravity Forms to Google Sheets?

• Real-Time Collaboration: Give team members access to form data in a familiar spreadsheet format without giving them access to your WordPress backend.
• Zero Data Friction: Eliminate “copy-paste” errors. Your data moves instantly from a form submission to a specific row in your sheet.
• Advanced Reporting: Use Google Sheets’ native charting and pivot table tools to analyze the data collected by your Gravity Forms.

Pro-Tips for Power Users

• Conditional Logic in Action: You don’t have to send every entry to your sheet. Use Gravity Forms’ built-in conditional logic to only send high-priority leads or specific department requests to Google Sheets.
• The “Glue” of Your Business: Remember, Zapier is the bridge. Once your data is in Google Sheets, you can trigger even more actions—like sending a customized Slack alert or updating a row in your CRM.
