Connect Typeform to MailNesto
Add people who complete a typeform, with their answers as contact fields.
Typeform and MailNesto, together
Typeform is often where people tell you the most about themselves: a quiz, an application, a feedback form. With this connection, everyone who completes a typeform with an email address is added to MailNesto, and each answer is saved on their contact as a field you can segment and personalise with.
Responses arrive through Typeform’s own webhook, and you can add a secret so MailNesto checks Typeform’s signature on every delivery.
What moves between Typeform and MailNesto
The email from an email question, or from a hidden field called email. First and last names come from questions whose reference contains “first” or “last”.
Saved as contact fields named after each question’s reference: choice labels, several choices joined by commas, yes/no as true or false, numbers, dates and text.
Values you pass into the typeform link, such as a source or a city, are saved as fields too.

What you can do with it
A skincare brand in Mumbai running a “find your routine” quiz can split its welcome automation on the skin-type answer and send each person the routine and products that suit them.
For a fellowship or hiring form, tag applicants and use a “Create task” step so someone reviews each application within two days.
Ask which topics readers want. Conditional blocks in your newsletter can then show the recipes section only to people who picked cooking.
Questions about the Typeform integration
Will everyone who fills in the form be emailed?
Everyone who completes it with an email address is added as a subscriber, so make it clear on the typeform that they are signing up for email. For forms that aren’t about email, don’t connect them.
Is the signature check required?
It’s optional but recommended. With a secret set, deliveries without a valid Typeform signature are rejected and logged.
Can I connect more than one typeform?
Yes. Point several typeforms at the same URL, or create a separate connection for each so they go to different lists and tags.
What if the respondent is already a contact?
Their fields are updated with the new answers. If they had unsubscribed, they stay unsubscribed.
