## Start Here

### Overview

Connect your OrbitForms forms to Pipedrive and automatically create Persons and Deals when forms are submitted. Pipedrive's visual pipeline makes it easy to track leads through your sales process.

<Note>
  **Why This Matters**

  Stop copying and pasting lead data from forms to your CRM. With the Pipedrive integration, every form submission automatically creates a Person and optionally a Deal in your pipeline, so your sales team can focus on selling instead of data entry.
</Note>

  <Card title="Integration Page" icon="gear">
    Connect Pipedrive from your Integrations page using your API token and configure field mappings.

    **Best for:**

    * Quick setup with API token
    * Simple 1:1 form-to-Pipedrive mapping
    * Syncing all submissions without filtering

  </Card>

  <Card title="Workflows" icon="code-branch">
    Add Pipedrive as a destination in your workflows for advanced control over which leads sync.

    **Best for:**

    * Filtering by lead score or qualification
    * Enriching data before syncing to Pipedrive
    * Combining with AI Agent qualification

  </Card>
</CardGroup>

### Integration Page vs. Workflows: Which Should You Use?

**Integration Page**

Use the Integration page when you want to send **all form submissions** directly to Pipedrive.

* Simple form-to-CRM mapping
* No need for lead qualification
* Fastest setup for basic sync

**Workflows**

Use Workflows when you need **filtering, enrichment, or AI qualification** before syncing.

* Filter by lead score
* Enrich leads before syncing
* Use AI Agent to qualify first

## Integration Page Setup

Connect Pipedrive to OrbitForms using your API token and configure which forms sync to your CRM.

  </Step>
</Steps>

### Step 2: Connect Pipedrive in OrbitForms

    `Pipedrive config → Field Mapping tab`

## Field Mapping Reference

Map your form fields to Pipedrive Person fields. The Name field is required for creating Persons.

| Form Field | Pipedrive Field | Required |
| ---------- | --------------- | -------- |
| Name       | name            | Required |
| Email      | email           | Optional |
| Phone      | phone           | Optional |
| Company    | org\_id.name    | Optional |
| Job Title  | job\_title      | Optional |
| Message    | notes           | Optional |

### Using Custom Fields

You can map form fields to any custom field in Pipedrive. Custom fields use a hash key format that you can find in Settings → Data fields.

<Tip>
  Example: A custom field might have a key like `abc123def456`
</Tip>

## Using Pipedrive with Workflows

For advanced use cases, add Pipedrive as a destination in your workflows. This gives you more control over which submissions get sent to your CRM.

### Use workflows when you need to:

* Send to Pipedrive only for qualified leads (after AI agent qualification)
* Include enriched data in your Pipedrive records (from Clay, Clearbit, etc.)
* Use AI SDR to classify leads before adding to your pipeline
* Route different leads to different pipelines or deal stages

### Example: Qualified Leads Only

A common workflow that only sends qualified leads to Pipedrive:

**Form Submission** → **AI Agent (Qualify)** → **Filter (Score > 70)** → **Pipedrive**

## Troubleshooting

<Warning>
  **Person not created in Pipedrive?**

  Pipedrive requires a Person name. Make sure you have the name field mapped from your form.
</Warning>

<Warning>
  **API token not working?**

  Find your personal API token in Pipedrive under Settings → Personal preferences → API. Generate a new one if needed.
</Warning>

<Warning>
  **Deal not being created?**

  Make sure "Create Deal" is enabled in the integration settings and you've selected a valid pipeline and stage.
</Warning>

<Warning>
  **Custom fields not syncing?**

  Custom fields use hash keys. Find your field's API key in Pipedrive under Settings → Data fields → Click on the field to see its API key.
</Warning>
