Typeform, Jotform and Google Forms

Experimental. Integrations are still being tested. They may not run, or may give incomplete or wrong results — check anything important yourself, and tell us what goes wrong.

Watch a form, and every new response starts your automations with the trigger A form is submitted. Each answer becomes a placeholder, so a response can become a task, a follow-up event, a Slack message or an email.

#Connect and choose forms

Then Watch. Only responses from that moment on start automations — the ones already there don't.

Google Forms are added by link because listing them would need access to your whole Google Drive; this way Daykite only ever sees the forms you add.

#Build the automation

1. New automation → trigger A form is submitted (under Other apps).
2. Which form: one of your watched forms, or any of them.
3. The trigger lists that form's answers as placeholders. A question called What's your budget? becomes {answers.whats_your_budget}. Two questions with the same title are numbered ({answers.name_2}).

Also available: {form.name}, {respondent.email} (when the form collects it) and {submitted.at}.

#How quickly responses arrive

• Typeform and Google Forms: checked every 5 minutes. Typeform can take up to half an hour to hand over a new response, so the odd one may arrive a little later. None are missed, and none run twice.
• Jotform: checked every 10 minutes, because Jotform's free and Starter plans allow only a small number of API calls a day.

Each response runs your automations once. Form responses can also go out as a webhook (form.submitted) — see Connect other tools.

#When a form goes away

If a form is deleted or unshared, Daykite stops watching it and the card says why. Stop watching does the same by hand.
