Telegram
When you use forms.app as the trigger (“New Form Submission”) and Telegram as the action in Zapier, your workflow is set: a new form submission triggers a Telegram message automatically. This enables you to keep your team, channel members, or community informed the moment someone interacts with your form.
What you’ll need
- A forms.app account (to create your form and collect submissions)
- A Zapier account (to build and run the workflow)
- A Telegram account (and bot or channel set up to receive messages)
Why use it?
By integrating forms.app with Telegram, you can:
- Ensure you or your team are notified immediately when a form is submitted
- Cut down on manual checking of submissions
- Keep your communication channel (Telegram) as a central hub for updates
- Use the submission data from the form to craft customised messages in Telegram (for example: “New lead: Name, Email, Message”)
5 Steps to Set Up Telegram + forms.app Integration
- In your forms.app dashboard, build and publish your form so that submissions are received.
- Click the 'Use This Integration' button, and then the “forms.app + Gmail Connect” button. Or if you are in Zapier, click “Make a Zap” → choose forms.app as the trigger app → select the “New Form Submission” trigger and connect your forms.app account.
- Add the next step: select Telegram as the action app → choose “Send Message” (or other available action) and connect your Telegram account (via bot or bot/ channel configuration).
- Map the form submission fields to the Telegram message text. Decide which chat or channel should receive the message and customise the text to include relevant form data (for example: Name, Email, Question response).
- Test your Zap with a sample form submission → if the message appears in Telegram as desired, turn the Zap ON. From now on, whenever a form is submitted, you’ll get the notification in Telegram automatically.
With the integration of forms.app and Telegram, you can automate your workflow so that every new submission triggers a quick update in your preferred Telegram chat.
