Forms Integration
Build, submit, and analyze forms via the Total Access API.
Forms Integration
The Total Access Forms module lets you create custom data collection forms, receive submissions via API, and export results for reporting.
Overview
Forms are configured per client and identified by a unique form_key. Each form has typed fields (text, number, date, select, etc.) and supports optional validation rules.
List forms
Retrieve all forms accessible to your client:
curl -X GET https://developer.totalaccess.co.za/api/v1/forms \
-H "X-API-Key: ta_sk_your_api_key" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json"Response:
{
"success": true,
"data": [
{
"id": 1,
"form_key": "site_inspection",
"form_name": "Site Inspection Checklist",
"is_active": true,
"submission_count": 42,
"fields": [
{ "field_key": "site_name", "field_label": "Site Name", "field_type": "text", "is_required": true },
{ "field_key": "inspection_date", "field_label": "Inspection Date", "field_type": "date", "is_required": true },
{ "field_key": "status", "field_label": "Status", "field_type": "select", "is_required": true }
]
}
]
}Submit a form
Submit form data programmatically (e.g. from a mobile app or external survey tool):
curl -X POST https://developer.totalaccess.co.za/api/v1/forms/submissions \
-H "X-API-Key: ta_sk_your_api_key" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"form_key": "site_inspection",
"data": {
"site_name": "Warehouse A",
"inspection_date": "2026-07-15",
"status": "passed"
}
}'Form submissions require the forms:write scope when using API key authentication.

Retrieve submissions with optional filtering and pagination:
curl -X GET "https://developer.totalaccess.co.za/api/v1/forms/submissions?form_key=site_inspection&limit=20&offset=0" \
