To upgrade deprecated WordPress Plugin <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/contact-form-7-3rd-party-integration/" rel="ugc">CF7-3rdparty Integration</a> to the new version <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/forms-3rdparty-integration/" rel="ugc">Forms 3rdparty Integration</a>, or migrate settings of either plugin between sites.
From discussion at https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-upgrade-from-old-version-to-this-one?replies=1 and more recent request https://github.com/zaus/forms-3rdparty-integration/issues/17.
Your mileage may vary…
<ol>
<li>You should have both plugins enabled with at least one service configured and saved. This is so you have both complete sets of options available for comparison, because you may have to add some extra properties beyond just copy/paste.</li>
<li>Open the “Forms 3rdparty Integration” admin page in two tabs — refresh one tab after performing the following steps, and use the other to ‘resave’ your original settings in case something goes wrong.</li>
<li>Upload this to your plugins folder (i.e. install)</li>
<li>Go to the Tools admin page, underneath it will be “Forms 3rdparty Migrate”</li>
<li>Choose the “mode”, which corresponds to the currently selected plugin you want to work with. When reviewing, will show that plugin’s settings. When updating, will set that plugin’s settings.</li>
<li>Choose ‘Review’ to see the currently selected plugin settings serialized to JSON, and copy them to export. If you are on > PHP 5.4, you’ll get prettified output, otherwise…sorry.</li>
<li>Choose ‘Raw Review’ to see the currently selected plugin settings in a ‘nicely formatted’ array.</li>
<li>Choose ‘Test’ to see what your pasted JSON would like as a nicely formatted array (i.e. like ‘Raw Review’)</li>
<li>Choose ‘Update’ to set the currently selected plugin from the values in the textarea. Submitted values should be JSON.</li>
<li>Select the ‘Convert’ option if you are migrating between CF7-3rdparty and Forms-3rdparty plugins — this will perform minor variable renaming for you.</li>
<li>Select the ‘Merge’ option to combine settings with existing. Unselect to overwrite.</li>
<li>If “upgrading” from CF7 to Forms, make sure to add any additional properties present in the ‘new’ format (such as labels) are added, otherwise you might get some PHP warnings when you go back to the Forms-3rdparty admin page. This part might not be necessary if you don’t have PHP warnings turned on.</li>
<li>Check the integration plugin admin page to make sure your settings are all there.</li>
<li>Try the new services.</li>
</ol>
NOTE Because all of the services are serialized to a single field, there is a limit to how many services you can configure at once.

Multiple configurable services, custom field mapping. Provides hooks and filters for pre/post processing of results. Allows you to send separate emails, or attach additional results to existing emails. Comes with a couple examples of hooks for common CRMs (listrak, mailchimp, salesforce). Check out the FAQ section for add-on plugins that extend this functionality, like sending XML/SOAP posts, setting headers, and dynamic fields.
The plugin essentially makes a remote request (POST) to a service URL, passing along remapped form submission values.

<h3>Hooks</h3>
Please note that this documentation is in flux, and may not be accurate for latest rewrite 1.4.0
<ol>
<li><code>add_action('Forms3rdPartyIntegration_service_a#', $response, $param_ref);</code>
<ul>
<li>hook for each service, indicated by the <code>#</code> – this is given in the ‘Hooks’ section of each service</li>
<li>provide a function which takes <code>$response, &$results</code> as arguments</li>
<li>allows you to perform further processing on the service response, and directly alter the processing results, provided as <code>array('success'=>false, 'errors'=>false, 'attach'=>'', 'message' => '');</code>
<ul>
<li>success = <code>true</code> or <code>false</code> – change whether the service request is treated as “correct” or not</li>
<li>errors = an array of error messages to return to the form</li>
<li>attach = text to attach to the end of the email body</li>
<li>message = the message notification shown (from CF7 ajax response) below the form</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>note that the basic “success condition” may be augmented here by post processing</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><code>add_action('Forms3rdPartyIntegration_service', $response, $param_ref, $sid);</code>
<ul>
<li>same as previous hook, but not tied to a specific service</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><code>add_filter('Forms3rdPartyIntegration_service_filter_post_#, ...</code>
<ul>
<li>hook for each service, indicated by the <code>#</code> – this is given in the ‘Hooks’ section of each service</li>
<li>allows you to programmatically alter the request parameters sent to the service</li>
<li>should return updated <code>$post</code> array</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><code>add_filter('Forms3rdPartyIntegration_service_filter_post', 'YOUR_HOOK', 10, 4);</code>
<ul>
<li>in addition to service-specific with suffix <code>_a#</code>; accepts params <code>$post</code>, <code>$service</code>, <code>$form</code>, <code>$sid</code></li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><code>add_filter('Forms3rdPartyIntegration_service_filter_args', 'YOUR_HOOK', 10, 3);</code>
<ul>
<li>alter the <a href="https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_remote_post#Parameters" rel="nofollow ugc">args array</a> sent to <code>wp_remote_post</code></li>
<li>allows you to add headers or override the existing settings (timeout, body)</li>
<li>if you return an array containing the key <code>response_bypass</code>, it will skip the normal POST and instead use that value as the 3rdparty response; note that it must match the format of a regular <code>wp_remote_post</code> response.</li>
<li>Note: if using <code>response_bypass</code> you should consider including the original arguments in the callback result for debugging purposes.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>
<code>add_action('Forms3rdPartyIntegration_remote_failure', 'mycf7_fail', 10, 5);</code>
<ul>
<li>
hook to modify the Form (CF7 or GF) object if service failure of any kind occurs — use like:
function mycf7_fail(&$cf7, $debug, $service, $post, $response) { 
 $cf7->skip_mail = true; // stop email from being sent 
 // hijack message to notify user 
 ///TODO: how to modify the “mail_sent” variable so the message isn’t green? on_sent_ok hack? 
 $cf7->messages[‘mail_sent_ok’] = ‘Could not complete mail request:** ‘ . $response[‘safe_message’]; 
}
</li>
<li>
needs some way to alter the <code>mail_sent</code> return variable in CF7 to better indicate an error – no way currently to access it directly.
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><code>add_action('Forms3rdPartyIntegration_service_settings', 'YOUR_HOOK', 10, 3)</code>
<ul>
<li>accepts params <code>$eid</code>, <code>$P</code>, <code>$entity</code> corresponding to the index of each service entity and this plugin’s namespace, and the <code>$entity</code> settings array</li>
<li>allows you to add a section to each service admin settings</li>
<li>name form fields with plugin namespace to automatically save: <code>$P[$eid][YOUR_CUSTOM_FIELD]</code> $rarr; <code>Forms3rdPartyIntegration[0][YOUR_CUSTOM_FIELD]</code></li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><code>add_action('Forms3rdPartyIntegration_service_metabox', 'YOUR_HOOK', 10, 2)</code>
<ul>
<li>accepts params <code>$P</code>, <code>$entity</code> corresponding to the index of each service entity and this plugin’s namespace, and the <code>$options</code> settings array (representing the full plugin settings)</li>
<li>allows you to append a metabox (or anything else) to the plugin admin settings page</li>
<li>name form fields with plugin namespace to automatically save: <code>$P[YOUR_CUSTOM_FIELD]</code> $rarr; <code>Forms3rdPartyIntegration[YOUR_CUSTOM_FIELD]</code></li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><code>add_filter('Forms3rdPartyIntegration_debug_message', 'YOUR_HOOK', 10, 5);</code>
<ul>
<li>bypass/alternate debug logging</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><code>add_filter('Forms3rdPartyIntegration_plugin_hooks', 'YOUR_HOOK', 10, 1);</code>
<ul>
<li>Accepts an array of contact form plugin hooks to attach F3p to, and returns that array. Modify result to attach to additional plugin hooks, like GF edit.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><code>add_filter('Forms3rdPartyIntegration_service_filter_url', 'YOUR_HOOK', 10, 2);</code>
<ul>
<li>hook a function that takes the <code>$service_url, $post_args</code> and returns the endpoint <code>$url</code></li>
<li>used to modify the submission url based on mappings or other information</li>
<li><code>$post_args</code> contains the <code>body</code> and other <code>wp_remote_post</code> details</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ol>

 We work to earn the right to be a trusted partner. One that you can turn to for professional help in strategizing, developing, executing, and maintaining your Internet presence. 
 We take a holistic view. Even if a project is small, our work should integrate into the big picture. We craft web architecture and designs that become winning websites that are easy to use and to share. We custom build social network footprints on sites like linkedin, facebook, twitter, youtube, flickr, yelp!, and google places and integrate them into your website to leverage social marketing. We help you set up and execute email campaigns, with search engine marketing, with photography, with site copy and content and anything else that you need in order to have a successful Internet presence.

Forms: 3rd-Party Integration

I've used this plugin on several occasions to tie both CF7 and Gravity Form implementations with LassoCRM among several other services that don't have an official integration.

Definitely a must-have w/ CF7 or GravityForms

I have tested with Salesforce and it works fine.

Thanks.

Great

Send contact form submissions from other plugins to multiple external services e.g. CRM.  Configurable, custom field mapping, pre/post processing.
