Open your website’s dashboard and go to JetForms > Settings. Find the Moosend API tab and open it. You will see a dedicated API key bar. Paste the copied key here and hit the “Save” button.

Next, proceed to JetForms > Forms. If you already have a form you would like to link with Moosend, open it. If not, click on the “Add New” button.

In the right-side menu, open the Post Submit Actions section, press the “New Action” button, and choose the “Moosend” option from the drop-down list.

Press the edit button with a pencil-shaped icon on it and you will see the Edit Action window. Paste the API key you copied to the API Key bar manually or enable the Use Global Settings toggle – it will pre-fill the API Key field.

• Retry request. Click this button whenever you wish to check the validity of the API key currently in use or synchronize with the Moosend API;
• Double Opt-in. This toggle allows to you enable/disable the subscription confirmation via email. This will come in handy when you want to minimize the risk of people registering from invalid email addresses;
• Mailing lists. In this drop-down list, you will see all the mailing lists you created in the Moosend account;
• Fields Map. This section contains the fields that have to be filled from the form submitted by the user. Only the Email field is required, and the First Name can be left empty. To create a connection between the form field and the user’s field in Moosend, choose the corresponding form field in the drop-down list near the Email and First Name positions.

NOTE. Moosend addon allows you to add custom fields to the form and even make them required. If you want these fields to be verified by the API system, you will have to make them required manually.

Go to your Moosend account page, click on the Mailing lists menu item, and then pick one of the created mailing lists. In the left-side admin panel, locate the Custom Fields tab and press it. In the upper right corner, there is an “Add new custom field” button. Click it.

You will see the field editing page. Enter the Field Name, then select the desired Data Type from the drop-down list – it can be “Text”, “DateTime”, “Number”, “Single Select Dropdown”, or “Checkbox”. Provide a Default Fallback Value if necessary and tick the “Required” checkbox option. Afterward, press the “Save custom field” button.

Note. If you mark some fields as required, the user will be unable to submit the form until these fields are filled in. Also, make sure to indicate which fields are required in your JetFormBuilder form.

The field you have just added will appear on the Custom Fields list within your Moosend mailing list. For proper operation of custom fields, remember to edit your form’s content according to the changes you made to the mailing list in your Moosend account.

Now, click to edit the Moosend post-submit action once again and hit the “Retry request” button. All custom fields that you added on Moosend’s end will appear in the Fields Map section. To create a connection between the form field and the user’s field in Moosend, choose the corresponding form field in the drop-down list near the newly-appeared positions.

After you finish the Moosend action setup, click the “Update” button. Now, as soon as the user submits the form, the new subscriber will appear in the Members list of your Moosend account.
