What It Does

Automatically send WPForms entries to Google Sheets in real-time.

GSheetConnector for WPForms is a powerful and user-friendly add-on that connects your WordPress website running WPForms with Google Sheets and automatically saves every form submission into a connected spreadsheet.

When a visitor submits a form on your website, the data is instantly synced to Google Sheets — no manual export, no copy-paste, and no coding required. This makes it easy to manage, share, and analyze WPForms entries directly inside Google Sheets.

This plugin works with both WPForms Lite and WPForms Pro and allows you to build a complete WPForms to Google Sheets automation system without writing any code.

Most businesses waste time exporting WPForms entries, downloading CSV files, and manually copying data into spreadsheets. GSheetConnector eliminates this by creating a real-time connection between WPForms and Google Sheets.

Every form submission is automatically synced, allowing you to follow up on leads instantly, share data with your team, build reports and dashboards, avoid data loss and human errors, manage everything inside Google Sheets, and enable real-time collaboration.
