How to connect Microsoft SQL Server and Gravity Forms
Create a New Scenario to Connect Microsoft SQL Server and Gravity Forms
In the workspace, click the โCreate New Scenarioโ button.

Add the First Step
Add the first node โ a trigger that will initiate the scenario when it receives the required event. Triggers can be scheduled, called by a Microsoft SQL Server, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, Microsoft SQL Server or Gravity Forms will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Microsoft SQL Server or Gravity Forms, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

Add the Microsoft SQL Server Node
Select the Microsoft SQL Server node from the app selection panel on the right.

Authenticate Gravity Forms
Now, click the Gravity Forms node and select the connection option. This can be an OAuth2 connection or an API key, which you can obtain in your Gravity Forms settings. Authentication allows you to use Gravity Forms through Latenode.
Configure the Microsoft SQL Server and Gravity Forms Nodes
Next, configure the nodes by filling in the required parameters according to your logic. Fields marked with a red asterisk (*) are mandatory.
Set Up the Microsoft SQL Server and Gravity Forms Integration
Use various Latenode nodes to transform data and enhance your integration:
- Branching: Create multiple branches within the scenario to handle complex logic.
- Merging: Combine different node branches into one, passing data through it.
- Plug n Play Nodes: Use nodes that donโt require account credentials.
- Ask AI: Use the GPT-powered option to add AI capabilities to any node.
- Wait: Set waiting times, either for intervals or until specific dates.
- Sub-scenarios (Nodules): Create sub-scenarios that are encapsulated in a single node.
- Iteration: Process arrays of data when needed.
- Code: Write custom code or ask our AI assistant to do it for you.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Microsoft SQL Server, Gravity Forms, and any additional nodes, donโt forget to save the scenario and click "Deploy." Activating the scenario ensures it will run automatically whenever the trigger node receives input or a condition is met. By default, all newly created scenarios are deactivated.
Test the Scenario
Run the scenario by clicking โRun onceโ and triggering an event to check if the Microsoft SQL Server and Gravity Forms integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Microsoft SQL Server and Gravity Forms (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Microsoft SQL Server and Gravity Forms
Gravity Forms + Microsoft SQL Server + Slack: When a new form is submitted in Gravity Forms, the submission data is inserted as a new row in a Microsoft SQL Server database. Subsequently, a message is sent to a designated Slack channel to notify relevant staff about the new submission.
Microsoft SQL Server + Gravity Forms + Google Sheets: When a new or updated row is detected in a Microsoft SQL Server database, a Gravity Forms form is automatically submitted. The data from this submitted form is then added as a new row in a specified Google Sheets spreadsheet.
