Hi there. Can someone tell me if it’s possible to relay form inputs from a Webflow form over to a Jotform? We would prefer to leave the nicely styled Webflow Forms in situ on a site, but they have to be able to talk to a nominated JotForm. Is there a way to use to use Method Post to carry over the data or would it require 3rd party automation such as Zapier?
Hi there,
You can send Webflow form data to other apps using Zapier to create automated workflows. Here’s how to set it up:
- Create and publish your Webflow form
- Submit at least one test entry through your form (required for Zapier setup)
- Go to Zapier.com and create a new Zap
- Choose Webflow as your trigger app
- Select “New Form Submission” as your trigger event
- Connect your Webflow account when prompted
- Select your site and form from the dropdown menus
- Choose your desired action app (like Gmail, Slack, or Google Sheets)
- Configure the action steps according to your needs
You can also use Webhooks or Make.com (formerly Integromat) as alternatives to Zapier for form integrations.
Hopefully this helps! If you still need assistance, please reply here so somebody from the community can help.
Depends on exactly what you’re trying to do.
The point of jotform is the form-building itself, but it does have an API to submit data if you want to bypass the form and give the submission directly. You would probably need to use this from an automation platform to sidestep CORS issues.
If you just want some of the questions in your site, and then more questions in the Jotform, you can setup your Webflow form to relay the data to your Jotform using querystring params, like name=Bob&email=foo@bar.com and Jotform can be configured to automatically pre-populate those fields. I do this in e.g. complex medical form enrollments- enter your name and email on the Webflow site, then you continue the process on the Jotform.
