Typeform Trigger Node
What is a Typeform Trigger Node?
The Typeform Form Submission Trigger node monitors your Typeform forms and activates your workflow automatically whenever a new form response is submitted. It captures all form data in real-time, making the submission details immediately available for processing in your workflow.
Outputs
When a form is submitted on Typeform, the trigger node provides the following output:
Form Response (string): A JSON string representing the complete response data from the Typeform submission, including all field answers, form metadata, submission timestamp, and respondent information
How to set up the Typeform Form Submission Trigger Node
Add a Typeform Form Submission Trigger node to your workflow
Connect your Typeform account:
Click "New Connection" if no connection exists
Select an existing Typeform connection from the dropdown if available
Provide your Typeform API credentials when prompted
Select the specific Typeform you want to monitor from your account
Configure test values (optional):
Add a sample form response JSON for testing in the workflow builder
These test values are only used during development and don't affect the actual trigger
Connect the Typeform trigger to downstream nodes in your workflow
Publish your workflow to activate the trigger
Important Notes
The trigger will not work until you publish the workflow
You must configure a Typeform connection before the trigger can be used
The Typeform connection requires valid API credentials with webhook access
Webhooks are automatically configured for your selected form
The trigger responds to all new form submissions in real-time
Test values are only used during workflow design and testing
Using Form Data in Your Workflow
You can reference the form submission data in downstream nodes by:
Selecting the Typeform trigger node as an input source
Parsing the Form Response JSON to extract specific field values
Using the submission data with AI nodes for analysis or processing
Accessing metadata like submission time, form ID, and respondent details
Processing answers from different question types (text, multiple choice, rating, etc.)

Monitor workflow execution logs for any connection or processing errors
Test with sample data first before relying on live form submissions
