Novu is an open-source notification infrastructure platform for developers. Send notifications across email, SMS, push, in-app, and chat channels with a unified API.
Paperform connects to Novu directly through Stepper workflows.
Each new submission can be posted to Novu, in the channel where someone will act on it.
How Novu 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: 14 Novu 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 Novu step, connect your account and map the submission’s answers to its fields.
