Pods
Sync Gravity Forms entries into Pods custom content types and map form fields to Pod fields automatically.
What it does
When you build custom content types with Pods, getting form submission data into those structures usually requires custom code. This add-on creates a feed-based connection between Gravity Forms and Pods so that entries are saved directly to your Pods data on submission.
You set up a Pods feed on your form, map Gravity Forms fields to the matching Pod fields, and the add-on handles the rest when someone submits. You can also sync entries in bulk using a WP-CLI command, even for entries collected before you set up the feed.
This add-on is aimed at developers and site builders who already use Pods to manage custom post types, custom taxonomies, or other structured data and want Gravity Forms to feed data into those structures without writing custom save logic.

Good for
Written from Pods Framework Team’s own listing. Version and dates come straight from the source and are checked weekly.
Is this add-on free?
Yes, it is free.
What versions are required?
You need Pods 3.0 or higher and Gravity Forms 1.9 or higher.
Can I sync entries that were submitted before I set up the feed?
Yes. You can run the wp pods-gf sync WP-CLI command to bulk sync older entries for any form, and you can target a specific feed even if it is inactive.
Can I control how List field columns map to Pods fields?
Yes. The add-on provides developer filters (pods_gf_field_columns_mapping and pods_gf_field_column_row) that let you customize column-to-field mapping per form and per field.
