Save and Activate the Scenario

After configuring ConvertAPI, Formstack, and any additional nodes, don’t forget to save the scenario and click "Deploy." Activating the scenario ensures it will run automatically whenever the trigger node receives input or a condition is met. By default, all newly created scenarios are deactivated.

Test the Scenario

Run the scenario by clicking “Run once” and triggering an event to check if the ConvertAPI and Formstack integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between ConvertAPI and Formstack (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.

Most powerful ways to connect ConvertAPI and Formstack

Formstack + ConvertAPI + Google Drive: When a new form is submitted in Formstack, the submission data is converted to a PDF file using ConvertAPI and then saved to a specified folder in Google Drive for easy access and record-keeping.

Formstack + ConvertAPI + PandaDoc: When a new form submission is received in Formstack, ConvertAPI converts the submission data to a PDF document, and then PandaDoc creates a document from a template, attaching the generated PDF for signatures.
