Hi @Best Option 

Good question.

Please clarify which Zap app you are trying to connect.

Have you reviewed the available help articles for using Gravity Forms in Zaps?

Have you installed the Gravity Forms Zapier Add-On?

Help articles: https://docs.gravityforms.com/category/add-ons-gravity-forms/zapier-add-on/?_ga=2.75370074.934952117.1677472622-260824025.1677472622

 

The other work around is to use the Gravity Forms Webhooks Add-On.

The Zap trigger would be Webhooks - Catch Hook: https://zapier.com/apps/webhook/help
