FAQ

How to get smart tag like query_vars, user_meta key values to the Sheet?

First, use hook “wpforms_smart_tags” to add the smart tags with the key for which you want the value to the Google Sheet as below example.
add_filter( “wpforms_smart_tags”, “edit_smart_tags” );
public function edit_smart_tags( $tags ) {
$tags[‘query_var key=”wpformstest”‘] = esc_html__( ‘Query String Variable’, ‘wpforms-lite’ );
return $tags;
}
Add same key ( query_var key=”wpformstest” ) to the Google Sheet header to get the values.

entry_id and entry_date smart tag not getting saved to the Google Sheet.

WPForms lite version don’t save form submitted entries to the database. For a reason entry_id is zero(0) and entry_date is null. Hence not being saved to the Google Sheet.
