Overview#

The Form.io API empowers developers to manage forms and submissions on Pipedream, enabling the automation of workflows that require data collection and processing. With Form.io on Pipedream, you can create, update, and fetch forms, as well as handle form submissions. This is ideal for tasks like dynamically generating forms based on user input, streamlining data collection processes, and integrating form data with other services for further analysis or action.

import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
  props: {
    form_io: {
      type: "app",
      app: "form_io",
    }
  },
  async run({steps, $}) {
    return await axios($, {
      url: `https://${this.form_io.$auth.project_id}.form.io/${this.form_io.$auth.form_name}`,
      headers: {
        "x-token": `${this.form_io.$auth.api_key}`,
      },
    })
  },
})

Example Use Cases#

Form Submission Trigger to Slack Notification: When a new form submission is received in Form.io, trigger a Pipedream workflow to send a custom alert to a Slack channel, informing the team about the submission details.
Dynamic Form Creation and Data Storage: Automatically create a new form in Form.io using a Pipedream workflow whenever a specific event occurs (like a new product launch), and store the form data in a Pipedream data store for later use or analysis.
Form Data to Google Sheets Integration: Use Pipedream to send new Form.io submissions to Google Sheets. Each submission can be added as a new row in a sheet, providing easy access for non-technical team members to review and process the data.

Authentication#

Name Slug: form_io

Form.io uses API keys for authentication. When you connect your Form.io account, Pipedream securely stores the keys so you can easily authenticate to Form.io APIs in both code and no-code steps.

To retrieve your API credentials,

Navigate to your Form.IO account and sign in

Now, to get Project ID and API Key,

From the dashboard, select one of your projects, or create a new one
Go to “Settings” > “API Keys”
Your Project ID is 1234 if your Live Endpoint is https://1234.form.io

Finally, to get your Form Name

Go to “Forms”
Select one of your forms, or create a new one
Your Form Name is ABC if your API Path is https://project.form.io/ABC
