Gravity Connect: API Alchemist

Connect Gravity Forms to any API. Push, pull, and populate live data for easy, no-code automations.

Connect Gravity Forms to any API and push, pull, and populate live data to, from, and within Gravity Forms.

API Alchemist enables two-way conversations between Gravity Forms and APIs. Send entry data anywhere, fetch webhook responses, and even populate API data into your forms (courtesy of
Populate Anything).

With API Alchemist’s potions, Gravity Forms can be used in processes like:

  • Building powerful automations with platforms like Zapier and n8n
  • Connecting forms to CRMs and messaging or social platforms like Slack
  • Operating within WordPress itself via its REST API

Trigger API actions with Gravity Forms submissions

API Alchemist lets you make requests from your website to any API on form submission, optionally after payments or other conditions.

Adapt to any API

Enter API URLs directly, or create Connection Profiles for complete configurations. Requests can be configured by either mapping merge tags and static values or entering requests directly.

Smart UI with schema imports

If the API has a schema available, API Alchemist can detect it automatically through the API’s Connection Profile. It then uses it to brew a UI personalized to that API.

All endpoints, query parameters, and JSON properties are automatically imported to their relevant fields.

Dynamic query parameters and JSON field mappings

Capture data from any REST API in your forms

Capture API data in your entries and make data available for use in confirmation messages, notifications, or anywhere inside WordPress, or flow out to other external apps.

Populate API data dynamically in your form fields

Though a deep integration with GP Populate Anything, you can populate Gravity Forms field choices and values with live API data.

This opens the door to populating anything — CRM contacts, product SKUs, or even massive datasets (course catalogs, service areas, dealer networks) directly, without bloating your forms (or database).

Why is Gravity Forms the best tool to use with APIs?

Gravity Forms keeps a record of your data and submissions. This means you can retry feeds as many times as necessary from form entries, and even do this in bulk with our free plugin,
Feed Forge.

Gravity Wiz powers over 150,000 WordPress websites.

“Without Gravity Wiz, hundreds of hours of custom work would have needed to be done. I’m a member for life.”
