FAQ

Questions about New Form Entry.

How does the New Form Entry trigger work in Wufoo?

Fires when a new entry is submitted on a Wufoo form. The standard hook for piping form fills into your CRM, ESP, or notification channel.

Is the New Form Entry trigger real-time?

Yes. New Form Entry uses webhooks or push subscriptions, not polling. Your workflow fires within seconds of the event happening in Wufoo.

What data does New Form Entry return?

The full event payload from Wufoo. The output shape table on this page lists every field, its type, and an example value so you can map fields into downstream nodes.

Do I need Wufoo admin permissions to use New Form Entry?

For most Wufoo accounts a standard user can authorize the trigger. Some Wufoo plans require an admin to enable third-party webhooks. Check Wufoo's docs if the trigger fails to register.
