What does the 123FormBuilder Make integration do?
The 123FormBuilder Make integration lets Make notice what happens in your forms account and act on it without code. In Make, an automation is called a scenario: a chain of modules, where each module is one brick, such as a trigger that watches 123FormBuilder or an action that sends data somewhere else.
Route each lead the moment Make sees it. Watch New Submissions picks up the answers sent to a form you choose, and each answer travels as a bundle, meaning one item passed from one module to the next. From there, you can map it into a CRM or a sheet handled by another app.
Keep an eye on new forms. Watch New Forms reacts when someone on the account creates a form, which helps an ops lead who wants a trace of every new questionnaire before it goes live.
Reach the rest of the API. Make an API Call reuses your connection to call any endpoint of the 123FormBuilder API, for the cases the two triggers do not cover.
Keep the limits in mind: both triggers are scheduled, so Make checks for news on the scenario's schedule rather than getting a push from 123FormBuilder. If you are weighing tools, the n8n vs Make comparison lays out the criteria, and the Make pricing page explains what a plan includes. And when you would rather learn with someone guiding each step of the way, have a look at our Make training.
How do you connect 123FormBuilder to Make?
- 01
Copy your API key in 123FormBuilder
You need an active 123FormBuilder account. In its dashboard, click your username in the upper-right corner, then API Keys. If no key shows up, click Create now, then copy the key displayed on the screen.
- 02
Add a 123FormBuilder module in Make
Open your scenario, add any 123FormBuilder module and click Create a connection. A connection is your 123FormBuilder account linked to Make once, and every module of the app reuses it afterward.
- 03
Name the connection and paste the key
The Connection name field is optional, but a clear name helps when you manage several accounts. Paste the key you copied, or follow the instructions on the screen, and save.
Build your first scenario with 123FormBuilder
GoalWhen a new submission lands on your form in 123FormBuilder, Make picks it up and calls the 123FormBuilder API with the same connection.
- 01
Create the scenario
From the Scenarios page, create a new scenario and click the + to add the first module.
- 02
Add Watch New Submissions
Search for 123FormBuilder, pick Watch New Submissions, then link your account with Create a connection or pick the one you already made.
- 03
Choose your form
Fill in the module: once the connection exists, Make lists what it can read in your account, so you pick the form to watch instead of typing anything.
- 04
Add Make an API Call
Click the + on the right of the trigger, add Make an API Call, and map the submission data you need from the previous module into the call.
- 05
Test with Run once
Send a test answer to your form, then click Run once. Open each module to read the bundles it received and check the data landed where you expected.
- 06
Schedule and switch on
Set the schedule on the first module, every 15 minutes by default, then switch the scenario on. Make will now check for fresh submissions on its own.
What can start a 123FormBuilder scenario?
2 modules start a scenario when something happens in 123FormBuilder. A scheduled trigger is checked by Make on the scenario's schedule; an instant one is called by 123FormBuilder as soon as it happens.
Watch New Forms
Scheduled triggerIn Make“Triggers when a new form is created.”
You get a new bundle every time someone creates a form in your 123FormBuilder account, so your scenario can log it, alert a teammate or add it to an inventory kept in another app.
Watch New Submissions
Scheduled triggerIn Make“Triggers when a submission is created for a form of your choice.”
Each answer sent to the form you choose reaches your scenario as its own bundle, ready to be mapped into a CRM, a sheet or an email built by the next module.
What else can Make do in 123FormBuilder?
123FormBuilder gives you 1 module. For each one: what it does for you, when to reach for it, and what to watch out for.
Make an API Call
ActionIn Make“Performs an arbitrary authorized API call.”
This module opens the whole 123FormBuilder API to your scenario, reusing the connection you already set up, so you are not stuck with what the two triggers offer.
