fetch("https://automateform.com/api/submit", {
  method: "POST",
  headers: {
    "Content-Type": "application/json",
    "x-api-key": "af_live_xxxxxxxxxxxx"
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    name: "Jane Doe",
    email: "jane@acme.com",
    message: "We'd love a demo!"

  "submissionId": "sub_01j...",
  "emailSent": true
}

How it works

Three steps to production

No backend to maintain. No database to manage. Just a clean API you can call from anywhere.

Create a form

Define your form schema in the dashboard - field names, types, validation rules. Or use AUTO_INIT mode and let AutomateForm infer the schema from your first submission.

// Dashboard → New Form
{
  slug: "contact-us",
  fields: [
    { name: "name", type: "STRING", required: true },
    { name: "email", type: "EMAIL", required: true },
    { name: "message", type: "TEXTAREA" }
  ]
}

POST from anywhere

Use your API key and form slug to submit from any app, mobile client, static site, or CI pipeline. No SDK required - just a plain HTTP request.

curl -X POST https://automateform.com/api/submit \
  -H "x-api-key: af_live_xxx" \
  -d '{"name":"Jane","email":"jane@co.com"}'

Get notified, stay in control

Every submission instantly triggers an email to your configured recipient - no polling, no manual checks. The full submission history lives in your dashboard, ready to search and review.

// Email sent automatically on every submission
From:    AutomateForm <noreply@yourdomain.com>
To:      team@acme.com
Subject: New submission - contact-us

Name:    Jane Doe
Email:   jane@co.com
Message: We'd love a demo!

Features

Everything a form API needs

Built for developers who want power without complexity.

One endpoint. Any payload.

POST JSON to `/api/submit` with your API key and form slug. No SDKs, no schema migration, no infra to provision. Works from any language or runtime.

{
"name": "Jane Doe",
"email": "jane@acme.com",
"message": "We'd love a demo!"
}

200 OK · submissionId: sub_01j…

Isolated API keys per client

Each client workspace has its own scoped API key with domain allowlisting. Revoke one without touching others.

Email on every submission

Bring your own SMTP. AutomateForm fires a notification email the moment a form is submitted - no polling, no manual checks.

New submission - contact-us

From: noreply@acme.com

Name: Jane Doe

Email: jane@acme.com

Msg: We'd love a demo!

AUTO_INIT - zero config

Don't define a schema upfront. AutomateForm infers field types from your first POST and locks the structure in automatically.

# First POST with new fields?
POST /api/submit
→ schema inferred automatically
→ fields locked in
→ 200 OK

Webhooks (Premium)

Push submission events to any URL in real time. Build Zapier flows, Slack bots, or your own pipelines.

Built for agencies and studios

Manage multiple clients from a single AutomateForm account. Each client gets isolated forms, users, API keys, and SMTP config. Share dashboard access with your client's team.
