How to automatically create a Salesforce record for each new Jotform respondent
Create your playbook and set the Jotform trigger as "Form submission received"
After creating your playbook, you can proceed to add your trigger. The trigger detects changes in your connected apps and responds to your playbook.
To set up this playbook, click "Add trigger" and then select "Form submission received" under Jotform. Then, select the form. This will allow your playbook to automatically detect the newly received form in Jotform and initiate necessary actions.
If this is your first time using a Jotform integration in Relay.app, a prompt will guide you through the connection process.
Add the "Create record" in Salesforce automation
Integrate the Salesforce automation into your playbook to ensure the prompt creation of a new record in Salesforce when a new form has been received on Jotform.
Click the "Add step" button, then locate the "Create record" automation for Salesforce and input the mandatory and relevant details.
If your Salesforce account isn't already connected to Relay.app, you will be prompted to complete that connection. Make sure to allow the necessary permissions for Relay.app to sync with your Salesforce account.
Activate your Relay.app playbook
Activating your playbook is the final step to automate the creation of a new record in Salesforce. Once turned on, it will respond to each newly received form in Jotform by creating a new record on Salesforce without manual intervention.
To enable your playbook, click the toggle button located in the header. It is advisable to perform a test run of your playbook beforehand to ensure all steps work seamlessly together and reminders are being sent correctly.
