Initial setup #

First, you need to set up both the Gravity Forms PDF and Gravity Forms Notifications Add-ons. Detailed instructions can be found here for Gravity Forms PDF and here for Gravity Forms Notifications.

After completing the setup of both add-ons, follow these steps:

  1. Go to Meta/WhatsApp template dashboard and create a new template. While creating the WhatsApp template on, please select the Document type as the header content type. Then create the template as you usually do.
  1. Create a Gravity Form with all the desired fields.
  2. Configure Gravity Forms PDF:
    • Go to Form Settings > PDF.
    • Create a new Gravity Forms PDF feed (if not already created) with the desired settings.

3. Create a new WhatsApp notification feed and select the recipient, WhatsApp template. In the Media file URL setting enter [gravitypdf].

Form submission #

After configuring both feeds, go to the form on the front end, fill it out, and submit it. Upon submission, you will receive a WhatsApp message with the attached PDF generated by GravityPDF.
