Integrations (Mailchimp, Brevo, Slack)
Connect your forms to popular tools without leaving WordPress.
* Mailchimp — add submitters to an audience with optional tags and double opt-in
* Brevo — create or update contacts and add them to a list
* Slack — post a real-time channel notification via Incoming Webhook when a form is submitted
* Manage connections under Lumo Forms → Integrations (configure credentials, enable/disable)
* Assign connections on each form under Settings → Integrations in the form builder
* Map email and name for Mailchimp and Brevo; Slack needs no field mapping (sends form title and field values)
