Webflow Integration
Send a Webflow form to Static Forms
Last updated
To send a Webflow form to Static Forms, set the form block's action to https://api.staticforms.dev/submit with method POST, and add your form's API key as a hidden apiKey field. Each submission is then emailed to you by Static Forms and can go on to webhooks or integrations. The form keeps your Webflow design. It works on the free plan.
Steps
Set the action and method
Select the Form Block, open its settings, set Method to POST and Action to https://api.staticforms.dev/submit.
Name the fields
Give each input a name in its settings, for example name, email and message. The email field becomes the reply-to address on the notification.
Add the hidden fields
Drop a Code Embed element inside the form and paste the hidden fields below.
Publish and test
Create the thank-you page that redirectTo points to (a full URL), publish, and send a test message from the live site.
Alternative: set the action with a script
If you can't edit the form block, this script, added in the page's custom code before the closing </body> tag, sets the action and adds the key when the page loads.
For a CAPTCHA (reCAPTCHA v2 on Free; Turnstile, hCaptcha and ALTCHA from Starter) or file uploads (Starter and up), see the HTML guide; the field names are the same.
FAQ
Does this work on the free plan?
Yes. The snippet only uses Free plan features: 250 submissions every 30 days, 1 form endpoint, email delivery, the built-in spam filter, a honeypot field and reCAPTCHA v2. No credit card is needed.
How do I keep spam out?
Every submission is checked by the built-in spam filter on every plan. The snippet adds a hidden honeypot field (any field whose name contains "honeypot"); bots fill it in and those submissions are dropped. reCAPTCHA v2 is available on Free. Cloudflare Turnstile, hCaptcha, ALTCHA and reCAPTCHA v3 are available from the Starter plan.
Is it safe to put the API key in my HTML?
Yes. The form API key is meant to be public. It cannot read your submissions or sign in to your dashboard. From the Starter plan you can also restrict submissions to your own domains.
Do submissions still appear in Webflow?
No. With the action pointing at Static Forms, submissions go to Static Forms instead: they arrive by email and are listed in the Static Forms Inbox.
