Overview
The Softr Tally integration lets you connect your no-code apps with Tally, the free-to-use form and survey builder. When a new submission is received on a form you choose, Softr starts a workflow and hands you the submitted answers — so you can route the data into the rest of your app and tools in real time.
With Softr, you can turn every Tally submission into action: save it to a Softr database, send a confirmation email, post a Slack message, create a CRM contact, or kick off any other workflow built on top of the response.
Available triggers
- New SubmissionFires when a new submission is received on the Tally form you select. The trigger payload includes a unique event ID you can use to deduplicate submissions, the form ID and name, the response and respondent IDs, the submission timestamp, a link to download the response as a PDF, and an answers object keyed by each question's label. Softr resolves the question labels and types for the form you pick — including text, email, phone, link, number, date, rating, single- and multiple-choice, ranking, and file upload answers — and turns multiple-choice selections into their readable labels, so you can reference each answer directly in later workflow steps.
