Build Pirate Weather forms with Paperform

Pirate Weather is an open-source weather forecast API providing current conditions, hourly forecasts, daily forecasts, and historical weather data as a drop-in replacement for the Dark Sky API.

Paperform connects to Pirate Weather directly through Stepper workflows.

Form data and conversion events can go to Pirate Weather, where you report on them.

How Pirate Weather 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: 3 Pirate Weather actions, 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 Pirate Weather step, connect your account and map the submission’s answers to its fields.

What your form sends to Pirate Weather

For example, with a Stepper workflow the “Get Current Forecast” 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.
