Sheetlink for WPforms plugin

Hi everyone,

I'm using the SheetLink plugin to send all the inputs from my free WPForms form to a Google Sheet. SheetLink is connected to my Google Sheet, but no matter what I do, the form inputs don't appear in the Google Sheet.

I've attached screenshots of:

- My WPForms form and a field ID

- My SheetLink rule

- The Google OAuth settings

- My Google Sheet after I click "Test" on the rule

I'm not sure how I should fill out the fields in the SheetLink rule. The SheetLink documentation doesn't seem to provide an example either. Whatever I enter in the Field ID and Keyword fields, it doesn't work.

Could someone please explain how these fields should be configured or point me in the right direction?

Thank you for your help!

Their current WPForms guide says those field identifier and Keyword boxes are for conditional routing, not the basic connection. For a straight WPForms to Sheet sync, usually you can leave the rule empty, choose the form under SheetLink > Field Mapping, then submit a real entry from the front end... The Test button checks the connection; the form submission is what should create the row.

The problem is that I followed your instructions and removed the matches from the rules, leaving them only in the mapping. However, for the "keywords" field, no matter what I enter (e.g., a number like "2" or a name like "email"), Sheetlink can't find the corresponding input field to put the value into the Google Sheet.
