Turn every Typeform answer into a clean contact record. The flow enriches details, stores them in Airtable, and alerts your team in Slack. It suits marketing teams that collect inbound leads and need fast handoff.

When a form is submitted, the Typeform event starts the flow. The data goes to Dropcontact to find first name, last name, email, phone, company, website, and LinkedIn info. Next, the flow looks up the Airtable Contacts table using a formula on the full name to find a match. A simple branch checks if an Airtable id exists. If a contact exists, it updates key fields with the latest enriched data. If no match is found, it creates a new contact. Set nodes handle the field mapping so the right data lands in the right Airtable columns. Typecast is enabled so data types stay correct. Slack sends one message for new records and another for updates, so your team knows exactly what happened.

You need accounts for Typeform, Airtable, Slack, and Dropcontact. Make sure your Airtable table includes the fields used here or adjust the mappings to match your schema. Run a test submission to confirm the create and update paths. Teams often cut manual entry time and reduce duplicates. Use it for ads, event signups, and website contact forms.

1. Import the template into n8n: Create a new workflow in n8n > Click the three dots menu > Select 'Import from File' > Choose the downloaded JSON file.
2. You'll need accounts with Typeform, Airtable, Slack and Dropcontact. See the Tools Required section above for links to create accounts with these services.
3. In the n8n editor, double click the Typeform Trigger node. In the Credential to connect with field, click Create new credential, then follow the on screen steps to connect your Typeform account. If asked for an API token, create it in your Typeform account and paste it.
4. Open the Airtable nodes and create a new credential. If you use a personal access token, generate it in your Airtable account, then paste it. Set the Base ID and Table name to your Contacts base and table.
5. Open each Slack node, click Create new credential, and complete the Slack app authorization. Choose the channel where alerts should post.
6. Open the Dropcontact node, click Create new credential, and paste your Dropcontact API key from the Dropcontact website API page.
7. In Airtable, confirm a Contacts table exists with fields like firstName, lastName, Email, Phone, website, LinkedIn Company, linkedInProfile, Industry, Address, and fullName. Add a formula field for fullName if needed, or adjust the lookup formula in the Airtable list node to match your schema.
8. Review the Set nodes and confirm the field names match your Airtable column names. Update any labels so the enriched values go to the right fields.
9. Submit a test entry in your Typeform. In n8n, keep the workflow active and watch the execution to confirm Dropcontact enrichment, Airtable create or update, and Slack notification.
10. Test the update path by submitting another entry with the same full name. Confirm the record updates in Airtable and the Slack message mentions an existing lead.
11. If no record is found or the wrong path runs, check the Airtable filter formula and the full name field values. Make sure credentials are connected and the correct base and table are selected in each Airtable node.
12. Turn the workflow on. Monitor Slack messages during the first week and adjust field mappings if you spot missing or incorrect values.
