Jotform MCP connector

The Jotform connector lets Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and the Elaichi Agent find your Jotform forms, pull in submissions, build and edit forms, and summarize responses, with every person working inside their own Jotform access.

  • How it connects. Connects over OAuth. The credential goes into a vault nobody reads back.

  • One address. https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp, the same for every user.

  • Their own access. An agent never gets more than the person it acts for.

How to connect

Launching soon

From answering questions to doing the work

A person no longer has to ask. A trigger starts the work, inside the same permissions and the same audit log as everything else. Automations and live dashboards are launching soon, on the Black plan.

Automations

A schedule turns Jotform submissions into a digest.

New submissions are fetched, grouped, drafted into a summary, approved, then posted back to Jotform.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How do I connect Jotform to Claude?

Connect Jotform in Elaichi first: you are sent to Jotform's own sign-in page, you approve access, and you are done, with no client ID or secret to generate. Then in Claude open Customize, then Connectors, then Add, and paste https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp. Claude signs you in through Elaichi and your Jotform forms and submissions are available in the conversation.

Does Jotform work with ChatGPT and Cursor as well as Claude?

Yes. Jotform is connected once in Elaichi, and the same endpoint, https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp, is pasted into Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, any other MCP client, or used by the Elaichi Agent. There is nothing to set up separately for each client.

What can an AI agent actually do with my Jotform data?

It can find a Jotform form by name, read its questions, pull in its submissions, and summarize or compare the responses. It can also create a new form from a description, edit the questions on an existing one, and assign a form to a colleague. Short, concrete asks such as "summarize this week's feedback form" work better than long sentences.

Does connecting Jotform give the AI access to every form in my account?

The AI sees only what the person who signed in to Jotform can see: their own forms, shared forms, and the submissions on them. Elaichi can narrow that further, for example to reading submissions only, but it can never grant anything the person's Jotform account does not already allow.

Can my team share one Jotform connection?

Yes. One person connects Jotform in Elaichi and shares the connection with a team, and nobody else ever handles the Jotform credential. Each teammate still signs in to Elaichi as themselves, so the audit log names the actual person behind every form read or edit.

Can I stop an agent from deleting or changing things in Jotform?

Yes. Restrictions in Elaichi apply per action, so you can allow reading Jotform submissions while blocking form creation, editing, or assignment. A restricted action is never advertised to Claude, ChatGPT, or Cursor at all, so no prompt, however worded, can reach it.

What happens to a Jotform connection when someone leaves?

Offboarding the person in Elaichi ends their access to Jotform through every AI client at once. If they were on a shared Jotform connection, it keeps working for everyone else on the team. Disconnecting Jotform once in Elaichi removes it from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and every other client together.

Does the Jotform MCP connector work with Gemini, Codex, Claude Code or other MCP clients?

Yes. Jotform is reached over the same MCP endpoint every client uses, so anything that speaks MCP can call it — Gemini, Codex, Claude Code, Windsurf, Cline, Zed and OpenCode among them — alongside Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and the Elaichi Agent. The tools on offer and the access behind them are identical whichever client asks. Only the setup screen differs.

Is Elaichi an alternative to Zapier MCP for Jotform?

Yes. Both let Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor use Jotform. Zapier MCP fits a team that already automates in Zapier, since each person signs in and acts as themselves in that account. Elaichi fits when IT wants one address for the whole company, per-tool rules by role, and a record of every Jotform call.

How is Elaichi different from Composio for Jotform?

Composio gives AI agents tools and sign-in handling across 1,000+ apps, for developers building agents or people using an assistant, billed per tool call. Elaichi gives a company's own people governed access to Jotform: one address, restrictions per role or user, and $15 per user per month. Both have role permissions and a log of every call.
