Liveblocks is a real-time collaboration platform that provides infrastructure for building collaborative experiences with rooms, storage, comments, threads, and user presence.
Paperform connects to Liveblocks directly through Stepper workflows.
How Liveblocks 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: 10 Liveblocks actions and 5 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 Liveblocks step, connect your account and map the submission’s answers to its fields.

What your form sends to Liveblocks
For example, with a Stepper workflow the “Create Room” action takes these fields. Map each one to a question
on your form, and every submission fills them in.
| Liveblocks field | Question on your form | Required |
|---|
| Room ID | Short answer | Yes |
| Default Access | Dropdown or choice | Yes |
| Metadata | Short answer | No |
| User Access | Short answer | No |
| Group Access | Short answer | No |
Start from a template

templates directory.
