Friends, we are happy to announce that now you can send the form data to the external services through the Webhooks integration in our Forms :tada:

With this feature, you can specify a link to your service, and with each form submission, the widget will send the data in JSON format to that link.

Hi @Helga @Max, dear Elfsight-Team,

I’ve looked at the webhook and can’t figure out why the “type” is important for a transfer.
I use the hint value, for example, for a price. Wouldn’t it make sense to pass all fields that could have a variable value to the webhook?

Hello there @Sina :waving_hand:

The field type is included mainly for convenience. For example, if you have two fields with the same label, the type helps tell them apart more easily.

Regarding your point — all fields with variable values are indeed passed to the webhook:

The only thing I’m not quite sure about is the part with the hint. Since it’s a static value that can’t be changed by users, so I didn’t quite get how it’s related to your suggestion. Could you clarify a bit more what you had in mind?

Hi @Max

Thanks for the food for thought. :clap:

You’re right, of course. The Hint field value cannot be changed by the user. I think I’ve mixed something up. Sorry. Then I have to display the price on the recipient side—as in my case. To ensure the correct value and price match on the recipient side, I have to assign the ID to both. Right? So even if the name changes, the ID always stays the same?

You can just add the price to the field label or field options like this:

  • Label: 3.0 +(6.50 €)

  • Option: 1 Stk(6.50 €)


Would one of these options work for you?

Thanks for the tip @Max. :hugs:

However, that’s confusing me with the email message. I’ve set it up in a table for each individual value, and there are a large number of different values.
I’ll see what I can do with the webhook. It’s new territory for me, too. :face_with_peeking_eye:

Ah, I see! Indeed, with this view many values might be confusing, but it’s the only possible option for now.

If you have any more questions, I’ll be happy to help :slightly_smiling_face:

Ok! So when will we be able to import form data into the Calendar widget? Thanks!

Hi there, @Shany_Porras1 :waving_hand:

I am afraid I didn’t quite get your idea. Could you please elaborate on your use case?
