Forms Version 2

This document describes the OSDI forms collection and form resource as implemented by the Action Network.

Forms are a type of action created by the organizer or group associated with your API key that involves activists filling out the form and submitting their information.

Forms have names (corresponding to our administrative titles), titles, and can have descriptions and other fields, and when activists submit them submission resources are created representing the submission an activist made on that form.

Forms are not deduplicated except on identifiers, to keep identifiers unique. Identifiers are deduplicated globally, across groups and API keys, so ensure any you set are globally unique.

Note: Forms created via the API are not equivalent to forms created with our user interface. API-created forms will not show up in lists of all of your actions on your dashboard of group page, they will not be given a URL on actionnetwork.org where people can sign, they will not have individual manage pages for statistics and submission downloads, and they will not send autoresponses. Rather, once they have at least one submission, they will show up as actions available for selection in our targeting interface, allowing you to select all people who have taken action on that form for reports or email targeting.

Endpoints and URL structures

Endpoints:

https://actionnetwork.org/api/v2/forms

Form resources live exclusively at the above endpoint. The endpoint returns a collection of all the forms associated with your API key.

URL Structures:

https://actionnetwork.org/api/v2/forms/[id]

To address a specific form, use the identifier without the action_network: prefix to construct a URL, like https://actionnetwork.org/api/v2/forms/d91b4b2e-ae0e-4cd3-9ed7-d0ec501b0bc3

Scenario: Creating a new form (POST)

You can post a new form to the forms endpoint and a form resource will be created in our system.

Note: Forms created via the API in this way are not equivalent to forms created with our user interface. API-created forms will not show up in lists of all of your actions on your dashboard of group page, they will not be given a URL on actionnetwork.org where people can sign, they will not have individual manage pages for statistics and submission downloads, and they will not send autoresponses. Rather, once they have at least one submission, they will show up as actions available for selection in our targeting interface, allowing you to select all people who have taken action on that form for reports or email targeting.

In the targeting interface, they will show up in the format [1, (origin system) Form], (title). For example, a form with the origin system 'FreeForms.com' and the title 'My Free Form' will show up in the targeting interface as [1, FreeForms.com Form], My Free Form so you can easily identify what it is and where it came from when doing your targeting.

}

You can post a form with a creator link as well, if you want to assign the form to a specific Action Network user, like so:

						
POST https://actionnetwork.org/api/v2/forms

Header:
Content-Type: application/json
OSDI-API-Token: your_api_key_here
						

{	
  "title": "My Free Form",
  "origin_system": "FreeForms.com",
  "_links" : {
    "osdi:creator" : { 
      "href" : "https://actionnetwork.org/api/v2/people/c945d6fe-929e-11e3-a2e9-12313d316c29" 
    }
  }
}

The link must be a valid person resource and must be associated with your API key for it to be accepted. If your API key is for an individual account, then the link must be to your account's person resource. If your API key is for a group, then the link must be to a member of administrator of your group. If no link or an invalid link is provided, the form will be assigned to your API key's account person record or to the original creator of the group, whichever is appropriate. If a creator is explicitly set, people who take action will be added to that creator's personal email list. Otherwise, the creator is has no effect on what email list people who submit to the form are subscribed to.

And of course you can post a form with more fields (such as description) if you'd like, but they are not required.

The above example changed the title and added a description.

Editing of certain fields via PUT is not allowed, and is noted in the field names table above. For example, you can't change the total_submissions count -- that is a system generated number reflecting a count of the underlying submissions. And you can't change the creator of a form. Invalid entries will be ignored.

Scenario: Deleting a form (DELETE)

Deleting forms is not allowed via the API. DELETE requests will return an error.
