SherloQ API Form Feeds

Description

SherloQ powered by IBM Watson

The SherloQ plugin allows you to send leads directly from your Contact Form 7 forms to SherloQTM.

Your form submissions will be displayed in the SherloQ app, Dashboard, or custom CRM in real time.

SherloQ powered by IBM Watson provides actionable intelligence for paid and organic search advertising as well as advanced machine learning and automation that feed back into Google Adwords and other advertising platforms, dramatically improving both ad and website performance.

Features:

That’s all there is to it.

1. Registration with the SherloQ app
2. A username, created during registration
3. An API Key, provided by SherloQ customer support, after registration.
