Typeform

Typeform is a webhook platform: rather than reading your data directly, you paste Instasent's webhook URL into a Typeform so its responses flow into Instasent's ingest stream. Use it to add the contacts your surveys capture to your audience.

How to connect

Typeform is a webhook platform: you don't create a credential — Instasent gives you a webhook URL, and you paste it into your Typeform. This is a manual webhook: Typeform posts to that URL on every response. You can create the Instasent source before setting anything up in Typeform; the source waits for data in real time.

1. 1

   Add the data source

   In Data sources, select Add data source and choose Typeform from the Integrations section.

2. 2

   Configure the source

   Fill in the Configure step — Connection name, Default country, Regional settings / Locale and Timezone — and Instasent creates the source.

3. 3

   Copy the webhook URL

   Instasent shows the source's Webhook URL under Setup instructions. Copy it.

4. 4

   Paste it into your Typeform

   In your Typeform's Connect / webhooks settings, add a webhook and paste the Instasent webhook URL. From now on Typeform posts each response to Instasent.

5. 5

   Watch the stream log

   Back in Instasent, the source shows a stream log of the data arriving, so you can confirm the connection is working.

What it syncs

Typeform sends the contacts its surveys capture — one per response — in real time as each one comes in. The payload identifies the contact (contact_id) and carries the answers the survey collected.

Field mapping

The fields Typeform sends are mapped to Instasent attributes the same way as any source — you confirm which incoming answers go into which Instasent attributes. See field mapping.

Consent mapping

Typeform passes through the answers the survey collects; it has no consent mapping of its own. Consent is controlled by the fields you map — if a survey collects an explicit marketing opt-in and you map it to a consent attribute, that value applies. The same rules apply as for any import: only set _accepts_marketing_* to false on an active opt-out; "no data" stays null. See Consent.
