Steel is a cloud browser platform that lets you run headless browsers at scale — scrape webpages, capture screenshots, generate PDFs, and manage browser sessions via API.
Paperform connects to Steel directly through Stepper workflows.
How Steel 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 Steel 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 Steel step, connect your account and map the submission’s answers to its fields.
