Wufoo

Wufoo is a cloud-based form-builder owned by SurveyMonkey Inc. It lets non-developers build registration forms, surveys, contact forms, application forms, and payment forms through a drag-and-drop interface, then collect and report on submissions. This repository profiles Wufoo's developer surface: the v3 REST API, push webhooks, official SDKs, pricing, rate limits, and the shared vocabulary of the platform.

APIs

Wufoo REST API v3

The v3 REST API exposes Forms, Fields, Entries, Reports, Widgets, Comments, Users, Webhooks, and Login. It uses HTTP Basic Auth with the account API key as username (password can be any non-empty string) and returns JSON or XML depending on the .json / .xml extension on the request path. Endpoints live under https://{subdomain}.wufoo.com/api/v3/.

Wufoo Webhooks

Each form supports up to 10 webhook subscribers. When an entry is submitted, Wufoo POSTs a form-encoded payload to each subscriber URL. When metadata=true is set at subscription time, the payload includes JSON-encoded FormStructure and FieldStructure. When a handshakeKey was provided, it is echoed back as HandshakeKey in every payload.
