How to connect Open Weather and Formstack
Create a New Scenario to Connect Open Weather and Formstack
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 Open Weather, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, Open Weather or Formstack will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Open Weather or Formstack, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

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

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Open Weather, 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 Open Weather and Formstack integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Open Weather 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 Open Weather and Formstack
Formstack + Open Weather + Google Sheets: When a new form submission occurs in Formstack, the current weather conditions are fetched using Open Weather. This data, along with the form submission data, is then added as a new row in a Google Sheet for analysis.
Formstack + Open Weather + Slack: When a new form is submitted in Formstack, the current weather is checked. If severe weather conditions are detected, a notification is sent to a designated Slack channel to alert the team.
