ButterCMS is a headless CMS that lets you add blog and CMS functionality to your website or app.
Paperform connects to ButterCMS directly through Stepper workflows.
Paperform forms can sit on your ButterCMS site, and what people submit can go into your content tools.
How ButterCMS connects to Paperform
Direct methods run inside your Paperform account. Zapier and Make are there too if your team already uses them.
Run a Stepper workflow when someone submits your form: 8 ButterCMS actions and 3 triggers, included in your Paperform account.
- Open Stepper from your Paperform account and create a workflow.
- Start it with the Paperform “New Submission” trigger and choose your form.
- Add a ButterCMS step, connect your account and map the submission’s answers to its fields.
