Feature · Slack
Paste an Incoming Webhook URL once. Every form submission shows up in Slack, usually within seconds, formatted as a clean message your team can react to.
Your form posts to one splitforms endpoint — no server, API route, or SDK. splitforms is the backend.
Every submission is saved to a searchable dashboard and emailed to you — spam filtered before it lands.
No glue code, no third-party middleman — it ships as part of splitforms and works from your first submission.
Copy-paste ready
Replace YOUR_ACCESS_KEY with the key from your splitforms dashboard. No SDK to install, no build step — the same html you already write.
// Setup (under one minute):
// 1. In Slack → Apps → Incoming Webhooks → Add to channel (#leads, #hiring, etc.).
// 2. Copy the webhook URL — looks like https://hooks.slack.com/services/T0/B0/xxx.
// 3. In splitforms → Form → Integrations → Slack → paste the URL → Save.
// That's it. Every submission below pings the chosen channel within ~1 second.

The Slack message (auto-formatted by splitforms):
*New submission · Contact form*
• Name: Ada Lovelace
• Email: [email protected]
• Company: Analytical Engines Ltd
• Message: Loved the demo, want a call.
_From: https://yoursite.com/contact_
The format is fixed today (form name header, up to 12 fields as a
bulleted list, referer footer); user input is Slack-escaped so a
submission can never inject @channel pings or disguised links.
-->How to set it up
How slack flows through splitforms — what you do, what we do, and what lands in your inbox.
In Slack, click the workspace name → Settings & administration → Manage apps → search 'Incoming Webhooks' → Add to Slack. Pick the channel that should receive form notifications (you can DM yourself for testing) and copy the generated webhook URL — it looks like https://hooks.slack.com/services/T0/B0/xxx.
Open Form → Integrations → Slack → New Slack integration. Paste the Incoming Webhook URL and save — splitforms recognises the hooks.slack.com host and formats every submission as a Slack-native message automatically. There's nothing else to configure.
Hit Submit on your form. Within ~1 second a formatted message appears in your chosen Slack channel with the submitted fields, ready for your team to react with emoji, thread a reply, assign an owner with @mention, or trigger any downstream Slack workflow.
How slack works
splitforms posts every form submission to Slack, usually within seconds of someone hitting Submit, formatted as a clean, scannable message your team can react to or thread on. Setup takes under a minute: in Slack, create an Incoming Webhook for the channel that should receive notifications (#leads, #hiring, #help, whatever); in the splitforms dashboard, paste the webhook URL — splitforms auto-detects the hooks.slack.com host and switches to Slack-native formatting; done. Route the same submission to an email inbox or a webhook at the same time — nothing here is one-or-the-other.
What you get
Every reason below is the boring, reliable kind — the fundamentals of slack, built once and tested in production so you never have to.
How SplitForms works
splitforms receives the submission, filters spam, saves it to your dashboard and emails you — then, on paid plans, sends it on to your webhooks and integrations. No backend infrastructure to build.
Point your form to your unique SplitForms endpoint. That's it.
We instantly capture and organize every submission in your inbox.
Send data to email, spreadsheets, CRMs, webhooks, and 7,000+ apps.
No credit card required. Set up in under 60 seconds.
Connect & automate
On paid plans, submissions can also go to Slack, Discord, Google Sheets, Notion, Airtable, Zapier or any signed webhook — and splitforms works on the platforms you build on, from WordPress and Shopify to Next.js. With Stripe connected, your forms can take payments too.
NewTake payments on your formsDeposits, bookings, order forms — submitters check out through Stripe and the money goes straight to your Stripe account. Included on every paid plan.See plans →Common questions
Just an Incoming Webhook — no custom app to build, no OAuth review, no Slack admin approval beyond installing the standard Incoming Webhooks integration. In Slack: workspace name → Settings & administration → Manage apps → install Incoming Webhooks → Add to channel → copy URL. In splitforms: Form → Integrations → Slack → paste the URL → save. Done in 60 seconds. The integration uses Slack's official Incoming Webhooks API, so messages count toward Slack's normal rate limits (1 message per second per webhook, plenty for any form).
Slack is included on the paid plans — Pro ($5/month, 5,000 submissions a month) and Annual ($49/year, 15,000 a month) — with no per-message fee. You do NOT need a paid Slack workspace: the one-click connect and Incoming Webhooks both work on Slack's free tier as long as you can install apps in your workspace.
Two steps. (1) In Slack: install Incoming Webhooks → pick the channel → copy the URL. (2) In splitforms: open the form → Integrations → Slack → paste the URL → save. The message format is fixed today: a bold 'New submission · your form name' header, each submitted field (up to 12) as a labelled bullet, long values truncated at 500 characters, and the source page URL as the footer. Custom message templates and Block Kit layouts aren't available yet — if you need a fully custom Slack message, point a signed splitforms webhook at your own small relay and post whatever Block Kit JSON you like from there.
Yes. Each form has its own Slack integration with its own webhook URL, so you point each one at whatever channel makes sense — sales submissions to #leads, applications to #hiring, support requests to #help, partnership requests to a private DM with the BD lead. You can also add multiple Slack webhooks to a single form and every submission posts to all of them in parallel. Conditional posting (e.g. 'only post to #vip if amount > 1000') isn't supported today — every submission on the form goes to every connected channel.
Open Dashboard → Form → Integrations → Slack — each webhook shows its last-triggered time, last HTTP status, and last error message. Common causes: (1) webhook URL revoked — Slack admins can revoke webhooks; check Slack → Apps → Incoming Webhooks → confirm the URL is still active, otherwise create a new one and update splitforms. (2) Channel deleted or archived — Slack returns channel_not_found; pick a different channel. (3) Rate-limited — Slack throttles roughly 1 msg/sec per webhook; a rate-limited (HTTP 429) delivery isn't retried automatically, but it stays in the webhook's delivery log where you can replay it, and extreme-burst forms may want to split traffic across webhooks. Whatever happens on the Slack side, the submission is always saved in your dashboard.
