Tagging isn't working

    I’ve gone through the following steps, and the form doesn’t seem to connect to Infusionsoft at all. I’ve tried using an existing contact email in Infusionsoft through the form, as well as a new email that’s not in the IS CRM, and neither show up.

    1. Added IS account (xu226) and API code to the CF7 Infusionsoft Add-On settings page
    2. Added the tag “Contact” to Infusionsoft
    3. Added the tag “Contact” to the Contact Tags field in the CF7 form
    4. Changed all of the field names to match Infusionsoft field names (First Name, Email, Phone Number). Here’s a screenshot of the field settings: https://d.pr/i/17LF8

    Thanks for any help getting this working!

    Hi Joshua,

    The issue is with your form field names. Perhaps I need to make this a little more clear in the documentation, but using the “Tag Generator” on the Contact Form edit page makes it easy.

    All form fields that are to be sent to InfusionSoft need to be prefixed with infusionsoft-. In your case, these will look like:

    [text* infusionsoft-first-name]
[email* infusionsoft-email]
[tel infusionsoft-phone]

    Once your fields are properly named, the tag will work correctly. Again, the tag generator is very useful for getting an idea about how these should be named.

    I hope this helps!

    Thanks Ryan!
    That solved it.
    And yes, I think this is a great addition to your documentation.

    Do all of the fields in the form need to be Infusionsoft fields? I don’t want any of the fields to actually go into Infusionsoft, but I just want that person to be tagged. So if I just add the Infusionsoft email, is that enough for Infusionsoft to recognize who to apply the tag to? Because I’ve tried that and it doesn’t seem to be working.

    Essentially, I just want to apply a tag to anyone who fills out the form, without really storing the information in Infusionsoft. What is the best way of doing that. Thanks!

    InfusionSoft requires a name (first OR last) and an email in order to communicate via the API. This means that you need to at least include an InfusionSoft name and email field.
