Encrypted Form Submission Data with Spreadsheet Integration and Prepopulate to Another Form

Hi Jotform,

I have my 1st form encrypted and populated in Spreadsheet

I would like to be able to populate this answer to a 2nd form for version control and in a secured manner.

Will you / your team be able to suggest ways to do this?

• possible to decrypt the submitted data on my side (locally) from the private key you generate for me?
• API solution?
• combine with Spreadsheet to Form widget?

You may try populate the encrypted dummy data using below Code using the Spreadsheet to Form widget in the form:

https://form.jotform.com/210458145145451

I really hope I can populate the data to a 2nd form securely from end to end, and so it requires decryption to view the 2nd form (From prepopulated data).

Use Case:

1. User 1st Form Submission + Encryption --> Recorded (i.e. Version Control)
2. User Adjustment in 2nd Form
3. User Decryption
4. User Adjustment made
5. Re-Submission Encryption
6. Recorded (i.e. Version Control)

Please let me know and any suggestions will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks a lot!

Please note that if you encrypt the form, encryption and decryption happens on browser-side only, as such, there is no way for us to decrypt it or restore it in case you lose your private key, as such, please use it with caution.

Meanwhile, to pass a data to another form, the easiest way would be to prepopulate it via URL parameters.

However, if you'll be encrypting the first form, the data that is sent to our servers are already encrypted, as such, the data that will be passed to your second form will also be encrypted.

As a workaround, you can create a script that will decrypt the data, then set your form's Thank You Page to redirect to your script.

Your script should decrypt the data using base64 openssl then redirect to your 2nd form using URL parameters.

Hi Vanessa,
For below you suggested - if I am not mistaken it is a non-secured http
POST method right? Is there any secured option?

Thanks again.

Hi Vanessa,
And is this solution HIPAA compliant if I upgrade to Silver/HIPAA account?
Thanks again

Hi Shirley.pccw,

By default, our forms are secured.

You may want to use a webhook.

Please note that the webhook integration is available with HIPAA-enabled accounts. You may add the URL provided by the application in the webhook integration to receive the data from the form. The data should be sent without any issue using the webhook integration. You may test the webhook integration using one of the following webhook testing sites.

Please give it a try and let us know if you need any further assistance. We will be happy to help.
