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 Code#

import jotform from "../../jotform.app.mjs"; import sampleEmit from "./test-event.mjs"; export default { key: "jotform-new-submission", name: "New Submission (Instant)", description: "Emit new event when a form is submitted", version: "0.1.6", type: "source", dedupe: "unique", props: { jotform, http: "$.interface.http", teamId: { propDefinition: [ jotform, "teamId", ], }, formId: { propDefinition: [ jotform, "formId", (c) => ({ teamId: c.teamId, excludeDeleted: true, }), ], }, }, hooks: { async deploy() { const { content: form } = await this.jotform.getForm(this.formId, this.teamId); const { content: submissions } = await this.jotform.getFormSubmissions({ formId: this.formId, teamId: this.teamId, params: { limit: 25, orderby: "created_at", }, }); for (let submission of submissions.reverse()) { const meta = { id: submission.id, summary: form.title, ts: Date.now(), }; this.$emit(submission, meta); } }, async activate() { return (await this.jotform.createHook({ endpoint: this.http.endpoint, formId: this.formId, teamId: this.teamId, })); }, async deactivate() { return (await this.jotform.deleteHook({ endpoint: this.http.endpoint, formId: this.formId, teamId: this.teamId, })); }, }, async run(event) { const { body } = event; let { content: submission } = await this.jotform.getFormSubmission({ submissionId: body.submissionID, teamId: this.teamId, }); // insert answers from the webhook event const rawRequest = JSON.parse(body.rawRequest); for (const key of Object.keys(rawRequest)) { const regex = /^q(\d+)_/; const match = key.match(regex); if (match && match[1]) { submission.answers[match[1]].answer = rawRequest[key]; } } this.$emit(submission, { summary: body.formTitle || JSON.stringify(body), id: body.submissionID, ts: Date.now(), }); }, sampleEmit, };
