Submit data to external source simultaneously
Hi,
We need to simultaneously submit data to another is it possible with Formidable? Do we need a add-on, if yes which one?
Thank you for your help

Hi Rono – What is the other site or system you need to submit to, and what software is it running?
For copying data to most systems, I find the Zapier Add-on is a good choice. However if you prefer not to use an outside service, or if your external system is something unusual or custom, the Formidable API Add-on would probably be a good way to build a solution.
Please post a bit more info, or if you have already solved the problem, post and let us know what you did.

Hi,
If you want to post to your own site, you will need to have REST-API endpoints for that. The Formidable addons are ment to post date somewhere else, not to receive data.
I have developed several Wordpress plugins using REST so I am familiar with setting up a connection where you can post data to. Either via REST or via kind of AJAX callback on a Wordpress site.
