What You'll Set Up
By the end of this guide, your AI agent will be able to work with your Fluent Forms data on WordPress. It can list all your forms, pull submission details, clone existing forms, and manage form entries — giving you a conversational way to stay on top of every lead, registration, or inquiry that comes through your site.
Instead of logging into WordPress to check form submissions one by one, you can simply ask your agent for a summary of today's leads or the latest responses to a specific form.
Before You Begin
Make sure you have:
- A WordPress site with Fluent Forms installed — The Fluent Forms plugin must be active on your WordPress installation
- Administrator access to your WordPress site — You'll need to create an application password
- A Pipeworks workspace — Sign up at pipeworks.ai if you haven't already
Fluent Forms connects through WordPress application passwords. This is the same secure method used by other WordPress-based integrations like Elementor, so if you've already set one up, the process will feel familiar.
Steps
Create a WordPress application password
Log into your WordPress admin dashboard. Go to Users > Profile (or click on your username in the top-right corner).
Scroll down to the Application Passwords section near the bottom of the page. Enter a name like "Pipeworks" and click Add New Application Password.
WordPress will display a 24-character password. Copy it right away — it won't be shown again. You'll also need your WordPress username and your site URL (e.g., https://yoursite.com).
Open your Pipeworks console
Log into your Pipeworks workspace and go to the Integrations page. Find Fluent Forms in the list and click on it.
Enter your credentials
Fill in the three fields:
- Site URL — Your full WordPress address (e.g.,
https://yoursite.com) - Username — Your WordPress username
- Application Password — The password you generated in step 1
Click Connect to save. Pipeworks encrypts your credentials with AES-256-GCM before storing them. The plaintext is never saved to disk and is only decrypted when your integration container starts.
Start the integration
Click Start to launch the Fluent Forms integration container. This takes a few seconds. Once the status shows Running, your agent can start working with your forms.
Test the connection
Use the Test button in your Pipeworks console to verify the connection. This sends a simple API call to your WordPress site to confirm your credentials work and that Fluent Forms is active.
What Your Agent Can Do
Once connected, your AI agent has access to Fluent Forms tools for:
- List forms — See all the forms on your site with their names, IDs, and status
- View submissions — Pull individual or bulk form submissions with all field data
- Clone forms — Duplicate existing forms to use as starting points for new ones
- Manage entries — Browse, filter, and organize form submission data
- Form details — Read form structure, fields, and configuration
Use tool profiles to control what your agent can do. Set the profile to read-only if you only want your agent to review submissions and form data without making any changes to your forms.
Connecting from Your AI Agent
Add the Pipeworks tools endpoint to your agent's configuration. Here's an example for Claude Desktop:
{
"mcpServers": {
"pipeworks-fluent-forms": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "mcp-remote", "https://app.pipeworks.ai/tools/fluent-forms"]
}
}
}
Claude Desktop will prompt you to sign in through Pipeworks when you first connect. No access key needed.
Troubleshooting
Connection test fails? Make sure your site URL is correct and includes https://. Verify that the Fluent Forms plugin is installed and activated on your WordPress site.
No forms showing up? Confirm that you have at least one form created in Fluent Forms. The agent can only see forms that exist in the plugin — it reads from the Fluent Forms data, not WordPress posts.
"Application passwords not available" error? Application passwords require WordPress 5.6 or later and an HTTPS connection. Check that your site has an SSL certificate installed.
Agent can't find tools? Verify your Pipeworks session is authenticated and that the integration status shows "Running" in your Pipeworks console. Also confirm that your WordPress site is publicly accessible — Pipeworks needs to reach it over the internet.
