Build Cosmic forms with Paperform

Cosmic is an AI-native headless CMS platform. Manage content as Objects in Buckets and connect to any frontend via REST API.

Paperform connects to Cosmic directly through Stepper workflows.

Paperform forms can sit on your Cosmic site, and what people submit can go into your content tools.

How Cosmic connects to Paperform

Direct methods run inside your Paperform account. Zapier and Make are there too if your team already uses them.

Stepper workflows

Direct

Run a Stepper workflow when someone submits your form: 6 Cosmic actions and 2 triggers, included in your Paperform account.

  1. Open Stepper from your Paperform account and create a workflow.
  2. Start it with the Paperform “New Submission” trigger and choose your form.
  3. Add a Cosmic step, connect your account and map the submission’s answers to its fields.

Cosmic actions in Stepper

  • Create Object
  • Update Object
  • Delete Object
  • Find Object
  • List Objects
  • Make HTTP Request

Cosmic events that can start a workflow

  • New Object
  • Updated Object

What your form sends to Cosmic

For example, with a Stepper workflow the “Create Object” action takes these fields. Map each one to a question on your form, and every submission fills them in.

Start with the one form whose data never quite lands where it should. Connect the rest when you're ready.
