Webflow Forms

Connect the Sequenzy app to a Webflow site to turn new native form submissions into Sequenzy subscribers and webflow.form_submission events. Sequenzy registers the required webhook for you; you do not need to paste an endpoint into Webflow or add custom code to the site.

Before You Start

You need:
  • A Webflow site with at least one native Webflow form
  • Permission to authorize that site in Webflow
  • A valid email field in each form you want Sequenzy to process
  • A published site for the end-to-end test
Capture starts after the Webflow connection finishes. Existing Webflow form submissions are not imported.

Connect A Site Or Workspace

Install From The Webflow Marketplace

  1. Install Sequenzy from the Webflow Marketplace.
  2. Sign in to Sequenzy or create an account.
  3. On Webflow’s authorization screen, choose the site or sites Sequenzy may access and approve the requested permissions.
  4. Return to Sequenzy and wait until the Webflow integration shows Connected.
  5. Open Settings → Integrations → Websites & Forms → Webflow → Settings to confirm the connected sites and choose the destination lists.
If you do not have a Sequenzy workspace yet, Sequenzy creates a workspace for each site authorized during the Marketplace install. If you already manage multiple Sequenzy workspaces, the install flow first asks which workspace should receive the Webflow submissions.

Connect From Sequenzy

  1. Open Settings → Integrations → Websites & Forms.
  2. Find Webflow and click Connect.
  3. Choose the Webflow site or sites on Webflow’s authorization screen.
  4. Back in Sequenzy, open Webflow → Settings and select which of the authorized sites should send submissions to this Sequenzy workspace.
  5. Choose the subscriber list routing and click Save.
Only workspace owners and admins can connect or reconfigure the integration.

How Forms Are Selected

Site selection controls form capture. Sequenzy registers one form_submission webhook for each selected site, and that webhook receives submissions from every native Webflow form on that site.
  • You do not select or map individual forms during setup.
  • Adding or renaming a native form does not require reconnecting Sequenzy.
  • Forms on an unselected site are not captured.
  • Embedded third-party forms and custom forms that bypass Webflow’s native form submission system do not trigger the Webflow webhook.

How Form Fields Are Mapped

Sequenzy maps each accepted submission as follows: Webflow-generated numeric suffixes do not prevent common contact fields from matching. For example, email-18, first-name-7, and last-name-7 map to the subscriber’s email, first name, and last name.
Other form fields are retained in the event’s formData; they are not copied automatically to same-named subscriber custom attributes. Use the event payload directly in a sequence or create a Sequenzy sync rule when you want event values to update audience data.
If the email already belongs to a subscriber in the workspace, Sequenzy fills missing detected profile data and records a new event instead of creating a duplicate subscriber. Existing non-empty profile values are preserved.

Choose Subscriber Lists

Open Webflow → Settings → Add subscribers to and choose one of these modes:
  • Workspace defaults — use the workspace’s default subscriber lists. If no defaults are configured, Sequenzy uses all current workspace lists.
  • Specific lists — add the subscriber only to the selected lists.
  • No lists — create or merge the subscriber without adding list membership.
The webflow.form_submission event is still recorded when you choose No lists. Changing this setting affects future submissions and does not remove existing list memberships.

webflow.form_submission Event

Every accepted submission records an event named webflow.form_submission. Its properties have this shape:
Metadata that Webflow omits is left out. The keys inside formData match the field names sent by Webflow, including capitalization and spaces.

Trigger A Sequence From A Submission

  1. Publish the Webflow site and send one test submission so the event appears in Sequenzy.
  2. In Sequenzy, create or open a sequence.
  3. Set the trigger type to Event received.
  4. Select webflow.form_submission as the event name.
  5. Add any conditions you need. For example, use event.formData.Plan to branch on the submitted Plan field or use event.webflowFormId to limit the sequence to one form.
  6. Add the email and action steps, save, test, and activate the sequence.
Because the integration captures every native form on a selected site, event conditions are the way to create form-specific automations.

Verify A Submission

  1. Confirm the Webflow integration shows Connected, with the expected site name and no Needs attention warning.
  2. Submit a published Webflow form using a unique test email address.
  3. Open Subscribers, search for that email, and open the profile. Confirm the mapped first name, last name, custom attributes, and list memberships.
  4. Open Settings → Events and find webflow.form_submission. Its activity count should include the test contact.
  5. Open the subscriber’s activity and inspect the event to confirm formData, webflowFormId, webflowFormName, and webflowSubmittedAt match the test.
Processing happens in the background and can take a few seconds. If the subscriber does not appear, check the following:
  • The form was submitted on the published site.
  • The form belongs to a site selected in Webflow → Settings.
  • The integration is not showing Finishing setup or Needs attention.
  • The submission contains a valid email address.
  • The form is a native Webflow form, not a third-party embed.

Limitations And Expected Form Structure

  • A valid email address is required. Submissions without one are acknowledged but do not create a subscriber or a webflow.form_submission event.
  • Form selection is site-wide; there is no per-form inclusion list in the integration settings.
  • Only new submissions received after connection are captured. The integration does not import historical Webflow form submissions.
  • Arbitrary form fields stay in event formData; only detected contact fields and Webflow metadata are written to the subscriber profile automatically.
  • Sequenzy does not change the form, its fields, page design, CMS content, custom code, domains, or publish state.

Why Sequenzy Requests Edit Site Data

Webflow labels the sites:write permission as Edit Site data. Sequenzy requires it only to manage the webhook that powers automatic, real-time form capture:
  1. After connection or a site-selection change, Sequenzy calls POST /v2/sites/{siteId}/webhooks for each selected site.
  2. The request creates a form_submission webhook whose only configuration is the trigger type and the Sequenzy callback URL.
  3. When a site is deselected or the integration is disconnected, Sequenzy removes only its own matching webhook registration.
Webflow’s Create Webhook endpoint requires sites:write. Sequenzy does not use this permission to edit pages, Designer content, forms or form fields, CMS collections, assets, site settings, domains, custom code, or the site’s publish state. Removing the permission would prevent Sequenzy from registering the signed webhook and would disable the integration’s core form-capture behavior.

Webflow Permissions

Sequenzy verifies the timestamp and signature on OAuth app webhook requests before accepting them. Disconnecting the integration queues removal of the Sequenzy-managed webhooks.
