Overview
Great question! Many reviewers share positive feedback in conversations, emails, or messages rather than through a form, and you should absolutely be able to capture that praise in your Feedbox. This article walks you through every supported way to add a review manually so that no testimonial goes unrecorded.
Yes, You Can Add Reviews Manually in Several Ways
Feedspace gives you multiple paths to bring a review into your Feedbox without requiring the reviewer to fill in a form themselves. Choose the approach that best fits your workflow.
Option 1: Fill In the Review Form on Behalf of the Reviewer
The quickest route for verbal praise or email testimonials is to open your own Feedspace review form and submit it yourself, entering the reviewer’s name, email address, and their feedback exactly as they shared it. This creates a real testimonial entry in your Feedbox instantly, with no extra tools required. Always get the reviewer’s permission before submitting on their behalf.
Option 2: Use the Submit Testimonial Action via Automation
Feedspace exposes a Submit Testimonial action that you can trigger from any automation platform. If you use Pabbly Connect, Zapier, or Make, you can build a workflow that sends review data from any source, such as a Google Form, a CRM record, or a spreadsheet row, directly into your Feedbox as a new testimonial.
To set this up, connect Feedspace to your chosen automation tool using your Automation Secret Key, which you will find in Feedspace under Automation. Then map the reviewer’s name, rating, and feedback text to the corresponding Submit Testimonial fields. This approach works well when you have a batch of existing testimonials to import or when you want to route feedback from multiple channels into one place automatically.
Option 3: Submit via the Feedspace API
If you prefer a direct integration, the Feedspace API accepts testimonial submissions programmatically. This is ideal for developers who want to push reviews from a custom app, a support ticket system, or any other internal tool. Authenticate with your API key and POST the testimonial payload to the submissions endpoint to have the review appear in your Feedbox immediately.
Option 4: Import Reviews from a Supported Platform
If the review already exists on a supported third-party platform, such as Google, Trustpilot, or another review site, you can use the Feedspace import feature to bring it in directly. This keeps the original source metadata intact and saves you from retyping the reviewer’s words.
What You Can Do Next
- Open your Feedspace review form and submit it yourself to capture a verbal or email testimonial right now.
- Connect Feedspace to Pabbly Connect, Zapier, or Make using your Automation Secret Key and set up a Submit Testimonial action to automate future manual submissions.
- Use the Feedspace import feature to pull in reviews already published on a supported external platform.
- After adding a review, visit your Feedbox to confirm the entry looks correct and use the edit feature to refine any reviewer details if needed.
