Lead source: Contact Form 7. Fields you did not rename are saved under their tag name.

If leads don't arrive

  • Check the tags really carry webhook:name, webhook:phone and webhook:email, then save the form again.
  • Make sure CF7 to Webhook is active and the URL is in the Zapier tab of this form, not another form.
  • A security or caching plugin that blocks outgoing requests from WordPress can stop the send; ask your host if nothing arrives.
