Setting Up the New Response Trigger

The Uplup Trigger node fires instantly when someone submits a quiz or form response.

   • New Response (Quiz or Form) — triggers on all submissions
   • Quiz Completed — triggers only on quiz completions
   • Form Submitted — triggers only on form submissions
3. Optionally select a specific quiz or form, or leave blank to trigger on all
4. Activate your workflow — n8n will register a webhook with Uplup

When a response is submitted, the trigger provides these fields:

Core Fields

• submission_id — Unique submission identifier

• form_title — Quiz/Form title
• content_type — “quiz” or “form”
• event_type — “quiz.completed” or “submission.created”

Contact Information

• email — Respondent’s email address
• name — Respondent’s name
• phone — Respondent’s phone number

Available Actions

• Get Quizzes/Forms — List all quizzes and forms in your workspace, with optional type filter
• Get a Quiz/Form — Retrieve details for a specific quiz or form
• Get Submissions — Retrieve all submissions for a specific quiz or form

Example Workflows

• New lead to Slack notification — Uplup Trigger > Slack (send message)

Troubleshooting

• “Pro Plan Required” error — The n8n integration requires a Pro plan or higher. Upgrade at uplup.com/pricing.
• OAuth connection fails — Make sure you’re logged into your Uplup account before authorizing. Try clearing cookies and reconnecting.
• Trigger not firing — Verify your workflow is activated (not just saved). When activated, n8n automatically registers a webhook with Uplup; you can confirm it under the Connect tab > Webhooks in any quiz or form (the Webhooks dashboard requires the Business plan to manage manually, but the n8n trigger registers webhooks for you on any Pro+ plan).
• Missing data fields — Quiz-specific fields (score, result, pass/fail) are only populated for quiz submissions, not form submissions.
• API key not working — Ensure you’re using a live API key (starts with uplup_live_), not a test key.
