Send data from Jotform to Xano

Ask us anything

Hi there,

I don’t have an engineering background, so I apologize if my explanation is not perfect.

Current situation

  • My current stack is Xano <> WeWeb.
  • I’m using JotForm to generate a form from which users can downloads their answers after filling it. They download it through a PDF.
  • This form is embed in a gated WeWeb space.

Goal

  • I’d like to monitor those downloads into Weweb.
  • I’d like to display a lign of each downloaded PDF

Where I’m stuck
I’m wondering what would be the first step to “connect” Jotform and Xano.

Can you guide me on where to look first? I’m a bit lost.

Thank you very much for your help

Hi @FXF,

I am not sure whether I fully understand but Jotform has a Webhook feature that easily lets you track how many times there has been a submission. You could connect that to a Xano endpoint that receives the data for you and stores it in the DB. If the webhook also exposes the download links, you could easily set it up in the Xano DB as well. You should then be able to measure the times someone clicks on it in WeWeb and add it to the original form submission number for that user.

Have not done it before but that’s how I would try to do it in Fastgen so I assume that should work in Fastgen as well.

Hi Mike,

Thank you for your help! I think Webhook is the way to go. I’m trying to figure this out as it’s the first time I manipulate those elements (I’m originally a Product Designer).
