Jotform API keys make it easy to securely connect your form data with other tools, services, or even your own custom-built applications. Think of them as digital keys that unlock access to specific features and data in your account—safely and efficiently.
By using API keys, you can automate workflows, integrate with third-party platforms, and create smarter, more connected solutions that work seamlessly with your forms. It’s a simple but powerful way to bring your data and processes together, all while keeping your information protected.
Generating API Key
To generate your Jotform API key, you’ll need to access your account settings, where all your developer tools live. From there, you can easily create a new key that gives your external apps or custom systems permission to interact with your Jotform data securely. Here’s how to get going:
- Go to Account API, and on the right side of the page, click on Create New Key.
- Then, select your New API Key and enter your desired label.
- If needed, under the Permissions column, click on the Dropdown Arrow icon to change permission:
- Read Access — Give access to your data in view-only mode, so others can see the information without making any changes.
- Full Access — This will allow full access to your data—meaning others can add, edit, or delete information as needed.
Note
Each subscription plan comes with a daily API call limit that resets daily at midnight (EST):
| Plan | Daily API Call Limit |
|---|---|
| Starter (FREE) | 1,000 |
| Bronze | 10,000 |
| Silver | 50,000 |
| Gold | 100,000 |
| Enterprise | Unlimited |
For more details and advanced options, feel free to check out the Jotform API Documentation. It’s a great resource if you’d like to explore everything the API can do.

I've used a template. In her template she has a API Key drop down to be able to ask "How many sets would you like?" Then it has numbers 1-10 to be able to select one. She has this same question asked multiple times throughout. I would like to know how to do this. Please help with step by step instructions. Thank you!

Can the API be set to only access certain forms? I’d like multiple keys and for each key to be limited to specific forms.

Eu quero saber se tem a possibilidade na API de eu pegar no formulário preenchido por ele, "nome e número de documento" e levar para consultar em meu site, assim eu sei que ele preencheu um formulário.
Tem uma API especial?

How do you restrict the file source? ie I only want local file uploads.

Are you able to edit the uploaded files and images to add more images without replacing the originals? In the jotform image uploader a new image will replace the old image instead of just adding an additional image.

Does this feature skip the upload to jotform server or is it making a copy of what currently gets uploaded to jotform?
