Connect a user's Formstack account once, then configure and run Create Form Submission from your backend or agent.
import { PipedreamClient } from "@pipedream/sdk"
const pd = new PipedreamClient({
projectId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_PROJECT_ID!,
clientId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_ID!,
clientSecret: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_SECRET!,
projectEnvironment: "production",
})
const result = await pd.actions.run({
id: "formstack-create-form-submission",
externalUserId: "{external_user_id}", // any stable ID for this user in your system
configuredProps: {
formstack: { authProvisionId: "apn_xxxxxxx" },
formId: "Forms",
fields: "Fields",
},
})

Inputs
Pipedream supplies the connected account. Your application provides the operation-specific values below. Dynamic inputs are resolved against that user's account.
| Property | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
formId Forms | string | Select a form Required Dynamic |
fields Fields | string | Value that should be stored for a specific field on the form. For this parameter, x must contain the id of the field whose value should be set. For fields with subfields (name, address, etc), use array notation with each item being the subfield and each key being the name of that subfield. E.g. { "field_12345": { "first": "John", "last": "Smith" } } Required |
encryptionPassword Encryption Password | string | The password used to decrypt your submissions. Without this value, you will only receive the submission ID and the success message when submitting encrypted forms Optional |
