• Ensure your Typeform account is logged in to grant permissions.

Once you have set up the trigger, select the form you want to connect, such as ‘Lead Form’. Ensure the response format is set to ‘Advanced’ before clicking on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to capture the webhook response.

3. Filling Out the Form for Testing

To test the integration, you need to fill out the form. Open the form link, which you can find in the share settings of your Typeform. Enter the required details such as first name, last name, email, phone number, and city.

• First Name: Test
• Last Name: User
• Email: [email protected]
• Phone Number: [Your Number]
• City: Bopal

Once you submit the form, Pabbly Connect will capture the response, which you can review in your workflow. This confirms that the trigger setup is working correctly.

Next, you will add Notion as the action application in your workflow. Click on ‘Add New Action Step’ and search for ‘Notion’. Select it and choose the event as ‘Create Database Item’. Click on ‘Connect’ to establish the connection. using Pabbly Connect

If you have previously connected Notion, select the existing connection; otherwise, create a new one by logging into your Notion account and allowing access to the relevant pages. Select the page where you want to create the database item, such as ‘New Leads’.

5. Mapping Data to Create Notion Items

In this step, you will map the data from the Typeform responses to the Notion database fields. Mapping allows Pabbly Connect to dynamically insert data from the previous step into Notion.

To map the details, use the slash command to search for the data you wish to map, such as first name, last name, email, and phone number. Once mapped, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to create the Notion item.

Upon successful completion, you will see that the details have been added to your Notion database. This automation will run in the background, allowing you to receive new form submissions without manually checking your workflow.
