Build ReadMe forms with Paperform

Stepper

ReadMe is an API documentation platform that helps teams create beautiful, interactive developer documentation.

Paperform connects to ReadMe directly through Stepper workflows.

How ReadMe 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: 10 ReadMe actions and 1 trigger, 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 ReadMe step, connect your account and map the submission’s answers to its fields.
