By Sparkforge Support Team ·Last reviewed May 3, 2026

The Quiz Submitted trigger fires a Sparkforge workflow the moment a contact submits a published quiz. Filter by quiz, score, or category, then send emails, SMS, tasks, or CRM updates automatically.

The Quiz Submitted trigger runs a Sparkforge workflow the second a contact finishes a published quiz. Use it to send personalized feedback, segment by score, route hot leads to sales, or push results into the CRM—without manual exports or spreadsheets.

What the Trigger Does

Quiz Submitted is a workflow entry condition that activates whenever a contact submits a published quiz. Add it to any workflow to enroll the contact and run actions in real time.

Why Use It

  • Real-time engagement: Respond the second a quiz is submitted to lift open rates and conversions.
  • Advanced filters: Target by quiz name, score range, category score, or custom fields.
  • Custom actions: Trigger emails, SMS, task assignment, or CRM updates based on the result.
  • Less manual work: Scores flow straight into automation—no exports or copy-paste.
  • Scalable journeys: Combine with conditional steps, wait times, and IF/ELSE logic for complex nurture flows.

Filter Options

Filters control exactly when the trigger fires:

  • Quiz Name: Pick a specific quiz, allow any quiz, or exclude specific quizzes with Is Not.
  • Overall Score: Match conditions like greater than 80 or between 50 and 70.
  • Category Score: Target performance inside a particular section of the quiz.
  • Custom Field: Reference custom score fields you defined in the quiz builder.

Use Case Examples

  • Personalized feedback: Send a tailored email based on the learner’s score.
  • Lead scoring and segmentation: Bucket quiz takers by score and update CRM tags for targeted campaigns.
  • Course or product recommendations: Suggest the next course or offer based on the result.
  • Sales handoff: Assign high-score takers to a sales rep for outreach.
  • Event participation: Trigger certificates or rewards once a passing score is recorded.
