To resolve the error message you are receiving in Webflow Logic Beta when trying to use a quote request form and it says "something is wrong with the flow trigger, either the form no longer exists, or there are type errors," you can follow these steps:

  1. Check if the form exists: First, verify that the form you are using in the flow trigger still exists in your project. Sometimes forms might accidentally get deleted or renamed, causing the error. To check this, go to the Forms tab in the Designer and ensure that the form you are referencing is present.

  2. Validate the form fields: Double-check that the form fields in your trigger are correctly configured. The error message could be related to a mismatch between the expected form fields and the actual form fields. Make sure the names of the fields match exactly, including any capitalization or spacing.

  3. Test the form submission: Test the form submission to see if it triggers the flow correctly. Fill in the form with sample data and submit it to see if the flow is triggered as expected. This will help you identify any specific issues with the form or the flow trigger.

  4. Review the flow trigger settings: Verify the settings of the flow trigger within Webflow Logic Beta. Ensure that the trigger is properly connected to the form and that the trigger type is set correctly. Pay attention to the data types required by the flow trigger and confirm that they match the data types of the form fields.

  5. Check for any interactions or custom code conflicts: If you have any interactions or custom code applied to the form or the page, it's possible that they are causing conflicts with the form submission and triggering the error. Temporarily remove any interactions or custom code related to the form and test if the error still persists.

  6. Contact Webflow support: If you have followed the above steps and the issue still persists, it's recommended to reach out to Webflow support for further assistance. They have the expertise to investigate and resolve the issue more specifically to your project.

By thoroughly checking these aspects, you should be able to resolve the error message and successfully use the quote request form in Webflow Logic Beta.
