Jotform Overview#

Jotform’s API is a powerhouse for automating form and survey data management. With Pipedream, harness this API to trigger workflows from new form submissions, manipulate and analyze your form data, and sync it across various platforms. Think streamlined data entry to CRMs, instant notifications for new leads or feedback, and timely data backups to cloud storage.
