Link any existing webform to Close in 2 minutes.

Previously the only way to sync a form to Close using 99Inbound was to create a new form in 99Inbound and deploy it to your site.

I’m happy to announce that as of today you can now link any exising form with 99Inbound by simply changing your form action and method attributes to point to 99Inbound.

Here is an example

Take this simple contact form. Currently it sends results to a URL on my website:

<form action="/contact" method="POST">
	<input type="text" name="email">
	<input type="text" name="bananagram">
	<input type="text" name="name">
	<button>Submit</button>
</form>

To integrate it with 99Inbound, I simply create a new endpoint on the 99Inbound dashboard, copy the url from the app, and update the form action to match:

Endpoint

Here’s the same form code with the updated 99Inbound endpoint

<form action="https://app.99inbound.com/api/e/123456" method="POST">
	<input type="text" name="email">
	<input type="text" name="bananagram">
	<input type="text" name="name">
	<button>Submit</button>
</form>

Thats it! 99Inbound will instruct me to make a test submission, then it will detect all the form fields, let me map form fields to Close fields, and finally configure auto-responder emails, add opportunity creation, slack notifications, and more!

Endpoints get everything

Form endpoints get all the same features as forms created with 99Inbound, so you can maintain complete control over the form while also getting all the benefits that 99Inbound provides.
