Mokaform Zapier integrationAutomate Mokaform with Zapier.

The Mokaform Zapier integration gives you 1 trigger, 0 actions and 0 searches. One door only, but a useful one: every form or survey submission can start a Zap and land in the tool where your team actually works, without anyone exporting answers by hand.

Overview

What the Mokaform Zapier integration actually does

It takes what people send through your Mokaform forms and surveys and hands it to your other apps. You build a Zap (an automation with one starting event and one or more steps after it), and Zapier runs it every time someone submits. The answers stop sitting in Mokaform waiting for an export.

Everything here starts from one trigger, New Submission, so the three results below differ by the step you put after it.

A spreadsheet that fills itself. Each submission becomes a new row in the spreadsheet you already share with your team. No more downloading answers and pasting them in.

A heads-up for the right person. Put a messaging app after the trigger and every new answer reaches the people who need to act on it, with the details of the submission in the message.

A contact where you track contacts. Send the answers into the tool where you keep your contacts, so a survey reply or a request becomes a record there instead of a line in another list.

What Zapier does not do for Mokaform. There is no action: a Zap cannot create a form, change one, or write anything back into Mokaform. There is no search step either, so a Zap cannot look up an older submission. Mokaform is where a Zap begins, never where it ends.

Vocabulary

Zapier vocabulary in one minute

Eight words come back all over this page. Here they are once, in plain English.

Zap
The automation you build on Zapier: one trigger, then one or more actions that run every time the trigger event happens.
Trigger
The event in an app that starts the Zap. Once the Zap is on, Zapier waits for it. For Mokaform, a new submission.
Action
What the Zap does after it starts: the step that writes, sends or moves something for you, in another app here.
Task
The unit Zapier bills: one action your Zap completes successfully. The count on your plan is a count of those.
Instant vs polling
An instant trigger is reported by the app the moment it happens. A polling trigger is checked on a timer. Mokaform's is instant.
Filter
A step that lets the Zap go on only when what arrived meets the condition you set, and stops it otherwise.
Multi-step Zap
Any Zap beyond one trigger and one action. A second action or a filter makes it one, and it then needs a paid plan.
Connection
Your Mokaform account linked to Zapier once, then reused by every Zap that starts from Mokaform.
Cost

What it really costs in tasks

Mokaform is not a premium app, so it works from the free plan. Since Mokaform only starts Zaps, every task you spend is spent in the other app.

  • Premium appNo, available on the free plan
  • Free plan100 tasks a month, two-step Zaps only
  • Trigger cost0 tasks
  • Mokaform triggerInstant, the grid does not apply

The trigger never costs a task. Each action that succeeds after it counts once, so a Zap that adds a row and then sends a message uses two tasks per submission. An action that fails is not counted. The free plan gives 100 tasks a month and unlimited Zaps, each limited to two steps: one trigger, one action. A filter or a second action makes it a multi-step Zap, which needs a paid plan. The grid below is how often Zapier checks polling triggers on each plan; it does not apply to Mokaform's instant trigger, which fires straight away on every plan.

Connect

Connect your Mokaform account

  1. 01

    Open the Apps page

    In your Zapier account, go to Apps and click + Add connection. You need an account on Mokaform, plus read or write access on anything you do not own yourself and want the Zap to touch.

  2. 02

    Find Mokaform

    Search for Mokaform by name in the dialog, select it, then click Add connection. A new tab opens so you can sign in to Mokaform with the account that holds your forms.

  3. 03

    Grant access

    Sign in to Mokaform in that tab and allow Zapier to use the account. The connection is saved once, and every Zap that starts from Mokaform reuses it afterwards.

First Zap

Your first Zap: keep the answers you care about in a spreadsheet

GoalEach Mokaform submission that meets your condition becomes a new row in your spreadsheet.

  1. 01

    Build: set the trigger

    Create a Zap, pick Mokaform as the starting app and New Submission as the event. Choose your connection, then the form the Zap should listen to.

  2. 02

    Test the trigger

    Run the test. Zapier brings back the three most recent submissions of the connected account, so you map the next steps on a real one. Check which answers come back.

  3. 03

    Add the filter

    Click the plus icon and add Filter. Fill the three boxes: the field to look at, the rule, the value. The filter makes this a multi-step Zap, which needs a paid plan.

  4. 04

    Add the spreadsheet action

    Add your spreadsheet app and its add-a-row action, then map the answers from the test into the columns. Test this step too, and read what came back.

  5. 05

    Publish

    Click Publish to switch the Zap on. Submissions that arrived before that moment stay in Mokaform; only new ones go through.

Triggers

The Mokaform trigger

1 event starts a Zap when something happens in Mokaform, and one of them is instant: the app calls Zapier straight away, whatever your plan.

1

New Submission

Instant trigger

In Zapier“Triggers when a submission is sent.”

Starts your Zap whenever someone sends one of your Mokaform forms or surveys, and passes their answers to the steps that follow. It is the only operation Mokaform offers on Zapier, so every Zap built with this app begins here.

How it fires
the app tells Zapier the moment it happens, so the Zap starts right away, whatever your plan
When to use it
when the answers to a form should end up in another tool, like a shared spreadsheet or a contact list.
Watch out
the form to follow is picked in a required field, so check in the test that the answers come from the form you meant.
When it breaks

When a Mokaform Zap breaks

Zapier ties no help article to Mokaform and lists no limit specific to it. What can go wrong is what goes wrong on any Zap.

  • Older submissions never arrive

    A Zap only reacts to what happens after you switch it on. Answers sent before publishing are not picked up, and moving that backlog is a separate job.
  • A Zap that sets itself off

    As a general precaution: a Zap that writes into the very place its own trigger watches can start itself again and again, and eat your tasks.
  • A sudden huge batch

    If a trigger suddenly returns a very large batch, after a bulk import or a migration, Zapier's flood protection can hold those items back.

FAQ

Mokaform Zapier integration: frequent questions

01Is the Mokaform Zapier integration free?
Yes. Mokaform is not a premium app, so it works on the free plan. That plan gives you 100 tasks a month and as many Zaps as you like, each with two steps: one trigger and one action. Sending every submission to a spreadsheet fits in that. Keeping only some submissions does not, because the filter makes the Zap multi-step, and multi-step Zaps need a paid plan. The trigger costs nothing; only the action after it uses tasks.
02How many tasks does a Mokaform Zap use?
One task for each action that completes after the trigger. The New Submission trigger itself never costs a task. A Zap that adds one row per submission spends one task per submission. A Zap that adds a row and also sends a message spends two. An action that fails is not counted against your plan. So the real question is how many submissions you expect, multiplied by the number of actions behind the trigger.
03Does Mokaform send submissions to Zapier in real time?
Yes. New Submission is an instant trigger: the app tells Zapier the moment it happens, so the Zap starts right away, whatever your plan. The interval grid of the plans does not apply to it, and a Zap built on it shows a lightning bolt in the editor. That makes Mokaform a good fit for a free plan, since nothing waits for the next scheduled check. The type of a trigger cannot be changed from the editor anyway.
04What do you need to connect Mokaform to Zapier?
An account on Mokaform, plus read or write access on anything you do not own yourself and want the Zap to touch. You start from the Apps page of your Zapier account, click + Add connection, pick Mokaform, then sign in in the tab that opens and grant access. Before building the Zap, have at least one form in that account, since the trigger asks you to choose the form to subscribe to and the field is required.
05Can Zapier send data back into Mokaform?
No. Mokaform offers one trigger and no action on Zapier, so a Zap can read submissions but cannot create a form, edit one or write an answer into Mokaform. Every step after the trigger has to belong to another app. If your plan relies on updating something inside Mokaform from another tool, that part stays manual. Check the Mokaform page on Zapier before you design the Zap: it shows the current list of operations.
06What if the Mokaform operation you want is not available?
Then no Mokaform step can do it in a Zap. Today the editor shows a single operation for this app, the New Submission trigger. The Mokaform page on Zapier shows the current list, so look there before you plan around a step that is not on it. The usual way through is to let Mokaform do what it does, collect answers, and give the rest of the work to the apps that come after the trigger in your Zap.
07Zapier, Make or n8n for Mokaform?
Choose on criteria, not on a ranking. First, check that the other tool has a Mokaform connector at all; this page only covers the Zapier one. Second, count your steps: on Zapier, trigger plus one action runs on the free plan, anything longer needs a paid one. Third, look at what has to happen after a submission and whether the apps involved are available on each tool. Fourth, think about who in your team will look after the automation once it is published.
