Using Typeform Actions and Triggers in GoHighLevel Workflows
Connecting Typeform with your CRM lets you move faster than jumping between tools like ClickUp and spreadsheets. In this guide, you will learn step by step how to use GoHighLevel workflows with Typeform so every form submission is captured, tagged, and followed up automatically.
This article shows you how to configure the Typeform trigger, map answers, and use form events in GoHighLevel so your automation is reliable and easy to maintain.
What You Need Before Setting Up GoHighLevel Typeform Workflows
Before you start building automations, make sure you have the following ready:
- An active GoHighLevel account with access to Workflows
- An active Typeform account with at least one published form
- Access to Integrations or Marketplace in GoHighLevel
- Permissions to connect external apps to your GoHighLevel account
Once these pieces are in place, you can connect Typeform and begin using the workflow trigger.
How to Connect Typeform to GoHighLevel
The first step is to authorize the connection between your form tool and your CRM environment.
-
Log in to your GoHighLevel account.
-
Navigate to the Integrations section (or the appropriate marketplace area in your sub-account).
-
Locate the Typeform integration and click to connect.
-
Follow the authorization prompts to log in to Typeform and approve access.
-
Confirm that the connection status shows as active in GoHighLevel.
After this connection is approved, Typeform forms become available inside the workflow builder as a trigger source.
Creating a Workflow with the GoHighLevel Typeform Trigger
Next, you will create a new automation that reacts whenever a form is submitted. The core of this automation is the Typeform event trigger in the GoHighLevel workflow builder.
-
Go to the Workflows section in your GoHighLevel sub-account.
-
Click Create Workflow or open an existing workflow where you want to add Typeform as a trigger.
-
Choose Start from Scratch (or another template if you prefer) and proceed to the trigger configuration.
-
Click Add New Workflow Trigger.
-
From the trigger list, search for and select Typeform.
Once selected, you can narrow down which form should start this GoHighLevel workflow and what specific event should be listened to.
Configuring the GoHighLevel Typeform Trigger Settings
The trigger configuration tells GoHighLevel exactly when to fire the automation and what data to receive from Typeform.
Selecting the Typeform Form in GoHighLevel
-
In the trigger settings, locate the Form dropdown.
-
Open the dropdown and select the specific Typeform you want to use as the trigger source.
-
Confirm that the selected form is published and available in your Typeform account.
Only one form can be chosen per trigger, but you can build multiple workflows in GoHighLevel if you need different automation paths for different forms.
Choosing the Typeform Trigger Event in GoHighLevel
After selecting the form, configure which event should launch the workflow:
-
Find the Trigger Event or Event dropdown in the trigger configuration.
-
Select an event such as New Form Submission (or the available equivalent for the integration).
-
Save your trigger settings to lock in this configuration.
At this point, every time a user completes the selected Typeform, the GoHighLevel workflow will start and you can process the submission data.
Mapping Typeform Answers Inside GoHighLevel Workflows
With the trigger configured, you can now use the captured answers to populate contact records, send messages, or branch logic.
Accessing Typeform Fields in GoHighLevel
When a workflow is triggered by Typeform, GoHighLevel receives the submission data as fields that can be used inside workflow actions.
You can typically access these values by:
- Inserting custom values or variables in emails, SMS, or internal notifications
- Mapping answers to contact fields where supported
- Using data in filters or conditional logic
Each field corresponds to a question in your Typeform, so make sure your question labels are clear. That makes it easier to recognize them when building your GoHighLevel workflow.
Using Typeform Data in GoHighLevel Actions
Common ways to use Typeform answers in your automation include:
- Creating or updating a contact record based on the email or phone answer
- Adding tags to segment contacts by the form they submitted
- Triggering nurture sequences that reference answers in personalized messages
- Sending internal notifications to your team that include full response summaries
All of these can be handled through standard actions inside the workflow builder, powered by the information coming from the Typeform trigger.
Popular Automation Ideas with GoHighLevel and Typeform
Once the integration is working, you can build powerful automations that are tightly connected to your forms.
- Lead capture and qualification: Create contacts, apply tags, and send instant follow-up emails.
- Survey or quiz workflows: Branch your GoHighLevel workflow based on specific answers or scores.
- Onboarding forms: Collect project or client details via Typeform and trigger internal task creation or notifications.
- Event or booking forms: Route submissions to the right pipeline stage in GoHighLevel for tracking.
These scenarios help you avoid manual data entry and keep all information synchronized between your form and your CRM.
Testing Your GoHighLevel Typeform Workflow
Before using your automation in production, always test from end to end.
-
Ensure the Typeform integration connection is active in GoHighLevel.
-
Open the workflow and confirm that the trigger shows the correct Typeform and event.
-
Publish or enable the workflow so it can run when triggered.
-
Submit a test entry using the live Typeform.
-
Return to GoHighLevel and check the workflow history or execution logs for the test contact.
-
Verify that actions such as contact creation, tags, or messages executed as expected.
If anything does not behave correctly, adjust the trigger settings or action configuration, then submit a new test form until the results are consistent.
Troubleshooting the GoHighLevel and Typeform Integration
If your workflow is not starting or data does not appear correctly, review these areas:
- Integration status: Confirm that Typeform is still connected in your GoHighLevel integration settings.
- Form selection: Make sure the correct Typeform is chosen in the trigger and that you are testing the same form.
- Workflow status: Check that the workflow is published or turned on.
- Field mapping: Review any custom value usage to ensure fields match the actual Typeform questions.
