Appwrite is an open-source backend-as-a-service platform providing APIs for databases, authentication, storage, functions, and messaging.
Paperform connects to Appwrite directly through Stepper workflows.
How Appwrite connects to Paperform
Direct methods run inside your Paperform account. Zapier and Make are there too if your team already uses them.
Run a Stepper workflow when someone submits your form: 12 Appwrite actions and 4 triggers, included in your Paperform account.
- Open Stepper from your Paperform account and create a workflow.
- Start it with the Paperform “New Submission” trigger and choose your form.
- Add a Appwrite step, connect your account and map the submission’s answers to its fields.

|---|
| Database | Dropdown or choice | Yes |
| Collection | Dropdown or choice | Yes |
| Document ID | File upload | No |
| Document Data | File upload | Yes |
