Understanding basic PHP is necessary to use the API:
If you are using WordPress and are using Gravity Forms, this is what you’ll want to add to functions.php. Along with the add_action, you’ll want to add the function below.
Note that the gform_after_submission_1 will need to have the number changed (the 1) to whichever form ID you’re using.
If you are not using Gravity Forms and WordPress, you can take the contents inside the function below, and use it on the page that is called on submit of your form.
<?php
add_action(“gform_after_submission_1”, “send_to_sprout”, 10, 2);
function send_to_sprout ($entry, $form){
/* This is where you specify the information that Sprout Studio needs to create the Lead in your account. The $url
doesn’t need to be changed. You’ll need to edit the $api_key to be your API key within Sprout Studio. You can find
this in your account by visitng Settings > Communication > Lead Forms */

$api_key = “YOUR_API_KEY_HERE”;
