Jotform integration

Connect Jotform with your Softr applications to put your form submissions to work automatically. Build workflows that fire the moment someone submits one of your Jotform forms — then notify your team, create records, and sync the answers wherever they need to go, all without code.

​
Overview

The Softr Jotform integration lets you connect your no-code apps with Jotform, the online form builder. When a new submission is received on a form you choose, Softr starts a workflow and hands you the submitted answers — already mapped to human-readable question labels — so you can route the data into the rest of your app and tools. With Softr, you can turn every Jotform submission into action: save it to a Softr database, send a confirmation email, post a Slack message, create a CRM contact, or kick off any other workflow built on top of the response.

​
Available Triggers

​
New Submission

Fires when a new submission is received on the Jotform form you select. The trigger payload includes the submission ID, form ID, submitter IP, creation time, and an answers object keyed by your form’s question labels — including multi-part fields like full name and address, and uploaded file URLs. Softr resolves the field labels and types for the form you pick, so you can reference each answer directly in later workflow steps.

​
Key Benefits

  • No-code form automation: Connect a Jotform form and act on every submission visually in Softr — no webhooks to wire up by hand.
  • Readable answers: Submitted data arrives keyed by your actual question labels, not cryptic field IDs, so mapping is effortless.
  • Instant reactions: Workflows fire the moment a form is submitted — no polling, no delay.
  • Works with any form: Pick any form on your Jotform account, including multi-part fields, file uploads, and multi-select questions.

  5. Map the submission’s answers to the inputs of your downstream actions (database records, emails, Slack messages, and more).
