Step2: Connect Your Forms With Zapier

We will use Zapier addon to integrate Pie Forms with Google Calendar. With this add-on, you can connect to multiple web applications and automate your work. Log into your Zapier account, create a new zap, and set up the trigger. Here is our step-by-step guide on how to get started with Zapier.

Note: Ensure you have at least one test entry on your form so that you can proceed through the entire trigger setup process. You can perform a test entry from the Pie Forms preview page for that particular form. Click on Preview to go to your form.

Once the trigger is tested, choose an action application and event to perform the task. In our example, we’ll add the users directly to the Google Calendar instead of manually adding each one.

Select Google Calendar and add the required event, and press continue.
