Build JSONBin.io forms with Paperform

JSONBin.io is a hosted JSON storage service. Store, read, update, and delete JSON data bins without provisioning any database infrastructure.

Paperform connects to JSONBin.io directly through Stepper workflows.

How JSONBin.io 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 JSONBin.io actions and 1 trigger, 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 JSONBin.io step, connect your account and map the submission’s answers to its fields.

JSONBin.io actions in Stepper

  • Create Bin
  • Read Bin
  • Update Bin
  • Delete Bin
  • Create Collection
  • Make HTTP Request

JSONBin.io events that can start a workflow

  • New Bin in Collection

What your form sends to JSONBin.io

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

Bring us the workflow that keeps breaking

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