Webflow sync, pageviews & more.

Is there a centralized way in Webflow to easily change the redirection of all forms on my website, as my company is switching email marketing automation providers, and I want to ensure I don't miss any forms?

TL;DR
  • Manually audit and update each form's Action URL in Webflow to direct submissions to your new provider.
  • Alternatively, use a third-party service or custom JavaScript for centralized submission handling across all forms.

If you're switching email marketing providers and want to update all form submissions across your Webflow site, there's no central setting to globally redirect or handle all Webflow forms. However, here’s how you can effectively manage it:

1. Use Webflow’s Form Settings

  • By default, Webflow forms send submission data to the Webflow backend and notify a specified email address.
  • If you had connected forms to a previous provider using form action URLs (via Form Settings > Action), you'll need to manually update the form action for each form.

2. Audit All Forms in Webflow

  • Open each page in the Webflow Designer and select each form element to check if any custom action URL or third-party submit handler is used.
  • Use the Navigator panel to search quickly through all forms on each page.
  • If forms are using default Webflow submissions, they will submit to Webflow and can’t be automatically routed to a third-party tool unless you integrate one.

3. Use a Third-Party Form Handling Service

  • To centralize the handling of all submissions, use a service like Zapier, Make (Integromat), or Formspree/FormKeep and point the Webflow form to that processor using the form’s Action URL.
  • This way, submissions from all forms are funneled to one place and you can redirect/track them in your new email provider from there.

4. Use Custom Code for Central Control (Advanced)

  • For advanced setups, you can add custom JavaScript site-wide (via Project Settings > Custom Code) that intercepts form submissions and reroutes them (e.g., via fetch or XMLHttpRequest) to your new marketing automation endpoint—regardless of the number of forms.

5. CMS Template Pages

  • If you’re using CMS-generated pages with forms (e.g., in blog posts or product pages), be sure to edit the form component in the Collection Page Template, as it will apply to all items.

6. Double-Check Thank You Pages

  • If your forms redirect to custom Thank You pages, ensure they don’t contain outdated tracking scripts or logic tied to your previous provider.

Summary

Webflow doesn’t offer a centralized form redirect manager, so to ensure all forms point to your new provider, you must audit each form individually, update their Action URLs, or implement a third-party integration or custom JavaScript to handle submissions uniformly.
