Webflow recipes

Text each person who fills in a Webflow form.

Two recipes for Webflow. Each names its trigger and the BlueBot step, lists the fields to map and says how to test it with your own number before anyone else gets a text.

How Webflow connects

Text Hook: A Text Hook is a BlueBot address the app posts its own webhook to. You map its fields to a recipient and a template, and each post becomes a text.
Zapier: BlueBot’s Zapier app has a Send Text action and instant triggers for incoming texts and every change of state.

Text people who fill in a form

Part	What it is
Trigger	Webflow’s webhook for a form submission
Action	A BlueBot Text Hook turns each post into a text
Connects through	Text Hook

Steps

Make a Text Hook in BlueBot and copy its address.
Add the address in your Webflow site’s settings as a webhook for form submissions.
Submit the form once, then pick the name and phone fields from the payload BlueBot kept.
Write the template, and each submission becomes a text from your number.

Map the fields

Text Hook setting	Set it to
Recipient	The field in Webflow’s post that holds the person’s phone number, written as a path such as `{{body.phone}}`.
Text	Hi {{body.first_name}}, thanks for getting in touch with Fernwood Studio. I’ll text you back today to talk about your project.
Metadata	`source` set to `webflow`. BlueBot adds the hook’s id by itself.

Test it

Post a sample to the hook’s address with your own number in the phone field, as below. A text arrives on your phone, and the hook’s page lists the post.

A test post shaped like Webflow’s

curl -X POST "https://usebluebot.com/h/YOUR_HOOK_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"phone":"+15555550123","first_name":"Maria"}'

Text yourself each submission

Part	What it is
Trigger	Webflow’s New Form Submission trigger in Zapier
Action	BlueBot’s Send Text action
Connects through	Zapier

Steps

Start a Zap with Webflow’s New Form Submission trigger.
Add BlueBot’s Send Text action with your own number in To.
Put the person’s name and message in Text.

Map the fields

BlueBot field	Map it to
To	The person’s mobile number from Webflow. US numbers can leave off the +1.
Text	New inquiry from {{name}}: {{message}}
`{{name}}` in the text	Webflow’s name field.
`{{message}}` in the text	Webflow’s message field.
Metadata	`source` set to `webflow`, and `record_id` set to the record’s id, so the status and reply webhooks for this text can find the record again.
Service	Auto, the default: iMessage when the person uses it, otherwise SMS through your iPhone.

Test it

Put your own number in To and press Test step. A text arrives on your phone from your own number, and Zapier shows the message BlueBot returned with state: "queued". Then map Webflow’s field back into To and turn the Zap on.

Before you turn it on

Text only people who asked to hear from you. Anyone who replies STOP goes on your stop list, and BlueBot cancels texts to them. Stop words
A text that can’t go yet waits with a hold rather than failing: quiet hours, your Mac away, a daily limit. Holds
Webflow with BlueBot on the integrations page says what else the two do together.
