Integrating Form Submissions Across Projects

Question

Hey good morning guys! 😁It'd be nice if there's something else than a webhook form. For some reason I use n8n and with a webhook-test and I can get it to work, but as soon as I remove -test it doesn't anymore. Might have missed some opportunities the last couple of weeks.What if there's some sort of integration like providing the SMTP info for sending out the email, or logging into mattermost/discord/slack to provide that submitted form response for any form over all webstudio projects and/or specific to a project.This would remove the headache of testing all forms all the time and figuring out something doesn't work. And iti would decrease the amount of point of failures.

This raises several questions

Oleg Isonen · Answer

What do you mean it doesn't work. What are the steps. What is this -test deletion. Not clear at all

Ronald from 360Creators · Answer

Allright 😀

Oleg Isonen · Answer

Second question is if you want it directly by email why don't you use webhook Form without external hooks?

Oleg Isonen · Answer

That's literally what it does - sends you an email

Ronald from 360Creators · Answer

Second question. It doesn't mention that it will send an email.

Oleg Isonen · Answer

All chats notifications can go through a webhook. There needs to be some backend that does all the installing of chats. We def. can't do it

Ronald from 360Creators · Answer

I thought that it might, but got confused

Oleg Isonen · Answer

Webhook form

Oleg Isonen · Answer

Seems like we don't mention this in the tooltip and we could be, full doc is mentioning it https://docs.webstudio.is/university/core-components/webhook-form

Oleg Isonen · Answer

Maybe there is some ready to go backend or maybe even n8n that already knows how to send to any chat but in the end it still has to go through webhook

Oleg Isonen · Answer

Now the question is what do you mean by not working. This MUST work.

Ronald from 360Creators · Answer

I've created both a regular form and webhook form, both not working. Still troubleshooting.

I've added my email to the project settings.

And normal form for email as you mentioned doesn't have initial/success/error states like the webhook form does.

Oleg Isonen · Answer

Doing this now myself.

Oleg Isonen · Answer

And normal form for email as you mentioned doesn't have initial/success/error states like the webhook form does. Misunderstanding, normal form doesn't send emails. I was talking about webhook form

Oleg Isonen · Answer

For webhook form the default is to send an email

Oleg Isonen · Answer

Normal form is for entirely different purposes

Oleg Isonen · Answer

Created and published webhook form. It works.

Ronald from 360Creators · Answer

I figured what I did wrong. I used the same path for the webhook in a different workflow in n8n. Changed the path to something unique and it worked. 🙈

However you mention that the webhook form default is to send an email, I only get that email from my n8n workflow, not from webstudio. I remember that I used to receive that, but at this time not. Not too important to me at this point anymore, but wanted to let you know that.

Oleg Isonen · Answer

create a new webhook form without any hooks and try it, it must work

Ronald from 360Creators · Answer

Okay will try now

Ronald from 360Creators · Answer

Ahh perfect. I understand it now. Thanks for the clarification.
