Question 1

Can I automatically send BDOW form submissions to my CRM or email tool?

Accepted Answer

Yes. BDOW captures contact data from pop-ups and forms on your website, and that data can be sent to external tools like CRMs, email platforms, or spreadsheet apps through automation workflows. You set up the connection once, and new submissions flow automatically to your chosen destination without manual export or re-entry.

Question 2

What contact information does BDOW actually collect and pass to other tools?

Accepted Answer

BDOW collects whatever fields you configure in your forms and pop-ups, typically name, email, phone, or custom fields relevant to your business. When connected to other tools, the automation passes those exact field values along with a timestamp of submission. Check your BDOW form settings to confirm which fields are active, as only configured fields will appear in the data sent downstream.

Question 3

What happens if my automation connection between BDOW and another tool breaks?

Accepted Answer

If the connection fails, BDOW will still capture submissions on your website, but those submissions won't be delivered to your connected tool. This means contacts pile up unsynced in BDOW until the connection is restored. Regular audits of your automation status and BDOW submission history help you catch breaks before contacts are lost or delayed from your workflow.

Question 4

How should I organize BDOW forms and pop-ups so automations work reliably?

Accepted Answer

Maintain consistent field names and required/optional settings across all BDOW forms that feed into the same automation, since mismatched fields or missing required data will cause sync errors. Document which BDOW form or pop-up connects to which downstream tool, and test the full workflow (submission through arrival in the connected tool) before running it live. Regular checks of both BDOW and your connected tool help verify data is arriving as expected.
