How to complete a form action with Power Automate

You are here:

If you are using an automation process such as Power Automate in conjunction with Sintel Forms, you may want to have a way to progress an item to the next workflow status depending on the conditions and events in the automation process.

Sintel Forms makes this possible using a dedicated API which is available within the Sintel Forms Designer.

 

The API feature discussed in this article is disabled by default and needs to be enabled by Sintel explicitly. If you wish to enable it simply contact us and we will be happy to enable it for you.

 

Once the feature is enabled for you, a new API Integration configuration option will appear when you click on any of the actions you have defined within the Workflow screen of the Sintel Forms Designer:

By enabling the “Allow automated submission” option, you’ll populate the endpoint URL. This URL can be employed in a POST operation within Power Automate to execute a form action, consequently altering the status of a form. The URL incorporates a placeholder, <formId>, which should be replaced with the actual list item’s ID that corresponds to your running process.

Each individual action, as defined within the Workflow screen of the Sintel Forms Designer, possesses its own unique endpoint URL. You only need to enable the feature for the particular action(s) you wish to execute from Power Automate.

Example:

It’s important to highlight that although this article primarily discusses Power Automate, our API feature is versatile and can seamlessly integrate with any workflow or automation process you may employ, including third-party applications like Nintex Workflows and others.
