Jotform API Pagination, Filtering & Errors

Once your first Jotform request works, use this page to shape real production requests. MindCloud keeps the app-specific API details behind one REST format, so you can control arguments, pagination, filtering, fields, and errors without learning a separate convention for every provider. If you have not connected Jotform yet, start with Connect to Jotform.

Arguments

Arguments are the inputs an action needs. Put them in the JSON body under the arguments field. Each Jotform action page documents its exact argument keys and types. It also shows which arguments are required. Keys are case-sensitive. Requests with missing or invalid required arguments fail.

Request format

Choose a Jotform action and send a POST request to its Universal API run URL. Authenticate with your MindCloud API Key. Put the connection, arguments, and response controls in the JSON body.

Pagination

Paginated list actions accept limit and offset in the JSON body. Some providers use page numbers, and some use cursors. MindCloud translates the request for Jotform. Start at offset=0, add limit to the offset after each page, and stop when a page returns fewer rows than you asked for.

curl --request POST \
  --url "https://connect.mindcloud.co/v2/universal/apps/jotform/actions/get-user/run" \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer $MINDCLOUD_API_KEY" \
  --header "Content-Type: application/json" \
  --data '{
  "connectionId": "$CONNECTION_ID",
  "arguments": {},
  "limit": "25",
  "offset": "0"
}'

These Jotform actions support pagination:

• List Form Submissions
• List Sub-User Accounts
• List User Forms
• List User History
• List User Invoices
• List User Reports
• List User Submissions

Filtering

Filterable list actions accept a where body field written as an RSQL expression. MindCloud translates it into the filtering shape Jotform supports. Each action page lists its filterable fields.

Combine conditions with ; for AND and , for OR: status==active;createdAt>=2026-01-01.

These Jotform actions support filtering:

• List Form Submissions
• List Sub-User Accounts
• List User Forms
• List User History
• List User Invoices
• List User Reports
• List User Submissions

Sorting

Sortable list actions accept a sort body field. Use a comma-separated list of fields with a - prefix for descending order, such as sort=-createdAt,name. MindCloud maps it into the sorting format Jotform supports, and the sortable fields are listed on each action page.

These Jotform actions support sorting:

• List Form Submissions
• List Sub-User Accounts
• List User Forms
• List User History
• List User Invoices
• List User Reports
• List User Submissions

Field selection

Use the fields body field to return only the response fields your code reads. Use dot notation for nested objects: fields=id,name,profile.email. Selection is applied to each row in data after the response is mapped, and id is kept whenever it exists so rows stay identifiable.

Responses and errors

Every Jotform response is mapped into the same public envelope before it reaches your code: success, your rows in a data array (single-row actions return an array with one item), and optional meta. Failed requests return success: false with a stable code to branch on and a human-readable message:

{
  "success": false,
  "code": "CONNECTION_APP_MISMATCH",
  "message": "Connection \"conn_123\" is not configured for this app."
}

Check the HTTP status first: 401 or 403 for authentication and authorization, 400 for invalid request shape, and 5xx when MindCloud cannot complete the action upstream. Most failures come from a missing API Key, a missing or mismatched connection, or arguments that do not match the action page.
