Platform category: Content Management System
Why teams use LeadToSheet for Wagtail
LeadToSheet hooks into native submit events across your Wagtail views and components, respecting async validation and letting you optionally call the capture API for bespoke flows.
Works with server templates
Stay in control of your Wagtail views while LeadToSheet listens for native submit events.
SPA compatible
Compatible with fetch/XHR powered flows and frameworks that hijack form submissions.
Rich metadata
Appends attribution, URL path, and device data so product teams gain context.
Setup checklist
- 1
Load the snippet in your base template
Place the script inside the Wagtail base.html template or StreamField layout so every view inherits it.
Tip: For component-based stacks, import it once in your app shell.

Optionally emit manually

Tip: Include a form name and key fields for clean analytics.

Frequently asked questions
- Can I trigger submissions manually?
- Yes. Use `window.leadtosheet.capture()` to emit payloads whenever you bypass native form submits.
- Does it support AJAX or fetch forms?

- How do I avoid duplicate rows?
- LeadToSheet deduplicates by submission fingerprint and timestamp, and you can include unique IDs in the payload.
