A completed Paperless Forms entry can contain information your team needs to acknowledge quickly, but checking submissions manually creates delays. Its New Entry (Rest) trigger can start a Zapier workflow as soon as a new entry is submitted. Mobile Message can then Send SMS to the person who submitted the form, an internal coordinator, or another number supplied in the entry.

This is useful for service requests, registrations and field reports where a short text confirms that information was received. You can include the submitter's name, a reference number or a simple next step in the message. Mobile Message can also Create Contact when the form introduces a new person, or Add Contact to List when the entry belongs to an existing communication audience. Paperless Forms does not provide an action in the supplied list, so this page focuses on workflows that begin with a new entry.

The connection runs through Zapier. Map the Paperless Forms fields to the Mobile Message step, test the recipient number and review the plain-text message before turning the workflow on.
