Get a submission GET /forms/{id}/submissions/{submission_id}Returns a single submission by ID.

curl --request GET \ --url "https://api.formflows.ai/v1/forms/frm_8kQmP2xNvL/submissions/sub_7vHnM4rKpQ" \ --header "Authorization: Bearer sk_live_your_api_key"
POST /forms/{id}/submissionsCreates a new submission for a form without going through the public form URL. Use this to submit data on behalf of a user from your own backend.
This endpoint bypasses CAPTCHA and rate limiting that applies to the public form URL. Only call it from a trusted server-side environment — never from client-side code or a browser. Submissions created this way are tagged as api in the source field.
Path parameters The form ID to submit to.
Body parameters Key-value map of field IDs to values. Use the id of each field (visible in the form object) as the key. You must provide values for all required fields; optional fields can be omitted.
Response Returns the created submission object with a 201 Created status.
