New Submission (Instant) on Jotform

Description:Emit new event when a form is submitted

Version:0.1.6

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.

Trigger Configuration#

This component may be configured based on the props defined in the component code. Pipedream automatically prompts for input values in the UI and CLI.

Label	Prop	Type	Description
Jotform	`jotform`	`app`	This component uses the Jotform app.
N/A	`http`	`$.interface.http`	This component uses `$.interface.http` to generate a unique URL when the component is first instantiated. Each request to the URL will trigger the `run()` method of the component.
Team	`teamId`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
Form	`formId`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.

Trigger Authentication#

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

About Jotform#

Jotform enables you to create online forms, collect responses directly in your email, and create fillable PDF forms.

Google Sheets Overview#

The Google Sheets API allows for the creation, reading, updating, and deletion of data within Google Sheets, enabling a robust platform for spreadsheet management and data manipulation. Through Pipedream, you can craft serverless workflows that respond to various triggers, such as webhook events, emails, or scheduled times, to interact with Google Sheets. This synergy can automate reporting, synchronize data across applications, manage inventory, track leads in a CRM, or even conduct survey analysis by updating and retrieving sheet data on the fly.
