Is it possible to display results from a form on a website?

Paperform doesn't provide a method of embedding a form's submission results on a third-party website currently. There are a number of workarounds available that perform similar functions listed below, of which you may choose to implement yourself.

1. Answer Piping on a Dynamic Success Page

Dynamic Success Pages are useful for when you want to show custom content that's more than simple text. To display the results of a specific submission after the form has been submitted, you can use Answer Piping on a Dynamic Success Page to display them however you wish.

2. Pass answers through a redirect URL after submission

To achieve passing answers via a redirect URL after the form is submitted, we'll need to use a Dynamic Success Page. Instead of including the answers in your success page though, we'll use a Conditional Redirect. The process is similar to regular Answer Piping, with the notable difference being the use of an encoded transformation.

If your default Answer Piping looks like this:

{{ key }}

We'll add the encoded transformation like so:

{{ key || encoded }}

This ensures that any value passed via URL is properly encoded, meaning it won't break your redirect if special characters like spaces are included also.

The final result might look something like this:

https://www.example.com/?utm_test={{ abc123 || encoded }}

  1. Integrate with a third-party platform such as Google Sheets or Trello

Third-party platforms such as Google Sheets & Trello offer similar services for displaying form results, while both platforms are uniquely helpful for different use cases.

Paperform allows you to integrate with services like these, meaning documents can be updated in real-time with new submissions. Here's a few guides to help get you started.

  1. (Advanced) Use webhooks to store submissions in your own database

Paperform supports setting up your own webhooks, so you can send new submissions to your own endpoint and store them there. Once stored in your own database, you can process and display them however you would like.

  1. (Advanced) Use our API to periodically retrieve submissions from your form

Paperform provides an API for selected pricing plans, which allows you to make your own requests from services like Zapier, Make (formerly Integromat), or even from your own internal systems.

You can find further details in our API documentation.
