How to connect GoCanvas and Youform
Create a New Scenario to Connect GoCanvas and Youform
In the workspace, click the “Create New Scenario” button.

Add the First Step
Add the first node – a trigger that will initiate the scenario when it receives the required event. Triggers can be scheduled, called by a GoCanvas, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, GoCanvas or Youform will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find GoCanvas or Youform, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

Add the GoCanvas Node
Select the GoCanvas node from the app selection panel on the right.

GoCanvas
Configure the GoCanvas
Click on the GoCanvas node to configure it. You can modify the GoCanvas URL and choose between DEV and PROD versions. You can also copy it for use in further automations.
Add the Youform Node
Next, click the plus (+) icon on the GoCanvas node, select Youform from the list of available apps, and choose the action you need from the list of nodes within Youform.

Set Up the GoCanvas and Youform Integration
Use various Latenode nodes to transform data and enhance your integration:
- Branching: Create multiple branches within the scenario to handle complex logic.
- Merging: Combine different node branches into one, passing data through it.
- Plug n Play Nodes: Use nodes that don’t require account credentials.
- Ask AI: Use the GPT-powered option to add AI capabilities to any node.
- Wait: Set waiting times, either for intervals or until specific dates.
- Sub-scenarios (Nodules): Create sub-scenarios that are encapsulated in a single node.
- Iteration: Process arrays of data when needed.
- Code: Write custom code or ask our AI assistant to do it for you.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring GoCanvas, Youform, 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 GoCanvas and Youform integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between GoCanvas and Youform (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect GoCanvas and Youform
GoCanvas + Youform + Airtable: When a new submission is received in either GoCanvas or Youform, a new record is created in Airtable, compiling the field data into a single, organized reporting database.
Youform + GoCanvas + Google Sheets: When a new form submission is received in Youform or a new submission arrives in GoCanvas, a new row is added to a Google Sheet to store survey responses and field inspection data for analysis.
