Question 1

What are apps and actions?

Accepted Answer

An app is simply a tool your business already uses, like PlatoForms, Google Sheets, your accounting system, or your email. An action is one thing MindCloud does inside that app, such as creating form invitation, updating form, or moving data from PlatoForms into another system. You connect your apps, choose the actions you want, and MindCloud runs them automatically. That's it. No code, no spreadsheets, and no copying data by hand.

Question 3

Can you only read data from PlatoForms, or change records as well?

Accepted Answer

Both. MindCloud can read data out of PlatoForms and change records where the connector supports writes, such as Form Invitation, Form, Webhook, Dropdown List Options, and Form Fields. It can also look up read-only records like API User Information, Complete Workflow Chain, Draft Submission Detail, Form Draft Submissions, and Form Fields Definition, so workflows can use that accounting context without implying every object is writable.

Accepted Answer

MindCloud can update Form Fields and Dropdown List Options programmatically. This enables you to refresh field definitions, modify dropdown choices, and customize forms based on real-time data or business logic before distribution.

Question 7

Can MindCloud create and manage form invitations at scale in PlatoForms?

Accepted Answer

MindCloud can create, update, delete, and retrieve Form Invitations in bulk. This lets you automate invitation distribution, track invitation status, and manage large-scale form campaigns without manual setup.

Question 8

What technology does MindCloud use to connect to PlatoForms?

Accepted Answer

MindCloud runs on an enterprise-ready integration platform called Gravity. Gravity is a low-code workflow builder that connects your applications together and moves data between them on a schedule, in real time, or on demand.

The PlatoForms connector is one of Gravity's pre-built integrations, so you simply plug in PlatoForms and start building rather than wiring up the API yourself.

Question 9

Do I have to build the PlatoForms integration myself?

Accepted Answer

Not unless you want to. You can build it yourself in Gravity, our low-code platform: connect PlatoForms and the other app, choose your actions, and run it, with no code required.

Prefer to have it done for you? MindCloud also offers full-service builds. Talk to our team.

Question 10

How do we get started with PlatoForms?

Accepted Answer
