Step 5: Form Completion Action
What is a completion action?
Pardot Completion Actions allow you to add follow up automations to most Pardot assets such as forms, landing pages, files, custom redirects, etc. These actions trigger after someone interacts with the asset such as a click or form fill.

when a prospect submits a form, we:

Summary: In the image above, we added some criteria to push the registered prospects to our responded list which we have created in the previous step. We also pushed them to the Salesforce campaign which we created, with member status "responded" and pushed them to lead queue.
