Booth and conference leads that make it into Attio
Badge scans arrive days later in a spreadsheet, and business cards get typed up by whoever has time. With Textiful, visitors give you their details by text and they’re in your CRM before they reach the next booth.
Matched, not duplicated
Attio updates the person if they already exist, so someone you met at two events stays one record.
A keyword or a QR code
Say “text DEMO to 33777” from the front of the room, or put a QR code where people can scan it. Either one starts your capture flow.
Qualifying questions by text
A capture flow asks for company, role, or timeline one text at a time, and each answer becomes a field your reps can sort by.

The Attio action to use
Your Zap has two steps: Textiful’s New Contact trigger, then Attio’s Create or Update Record action. Here’s every field Zapier shows for that action, and what to put in each one.
1. Trigger
Textiful: New Contact
Runs when someone finishes the capture flow you pick.
- Campaign NameRequiredYour capture flow
Always sent
Email, First name, Last name, Mobile number, Keyword (empty for a QR code scan), Number texted, Flow name and ID, Time they finished
Sent when your flow asks
Zip, City, State, Time zone, Company, Birthdate and age, Your custom fields, Poll answers
Each answer arrives as its own field you can map.
2. Action
Attio: Create or Update Record
Creates or updates a record, such as a person, company or deal. The record is created if it doesn't yet exist, otherwise it is updated. This can also be used for finding a record by a unique attribute, such as an email address.

Questions people ask
Yes. Each Zap watches one flow, so give each event its own flow and Zap. Add the people to a list for each event with Attio’s list actions.
No. The short codes 33777 and 55444 work in the US only, and QR codes text those same numbers, so Textiful is for audiences in the US.
