Integration

Introduction

Form Builder and Form Runner integrate with other systems through several means, summarized below.

Plain URLs

See URLs for more details.

• Through URLs, you access Form Runner and Form Builder's pages.

• The URLs can be produced simply by using hyperlinks or redirects from other applications.

Configurable persistence API

See Persistence API for more details.

• The API is based on REST (that is, through HTTP).

• It provides CRUD, search, and metadata operations.
