# Typeform API

Typeform API allows you to create and manage forms, collect responses, configure webhooks, manage themes, images, and workspaces programmatically. The API exposes 30 endpoints secured with bearer authentication.

## For AI agents

Programmatically create a form, list forms. Covers 30 operations with bearer authentication.

## Scope

Does not handle payments, communications, or crm - use for developer tools only.

## Capabilities

- Create a form
- List forms
- Get a form
- Update a form
- Patch a form
- Delete a form

## Use cases

### Developer Tools Operations

Use the Typeform API to perform developer tools operations programmatically. The API provides 30 endpoints covering core functionality including create a form, list forms, get a form.

Example prompt: Call POST /forms to create a form

### Automated Account Management

Automate account operations by combining multiple Typeform API endpoints. Agents can list forms and then get a form in a single workflow.

Example prompt: Call GET /forms to list forms, then verify the result

### AI Agent Integration via Jentic

AI agents discover and call Typeform API endpoints through Jentic without managing credentials directly. An agent searches for the required operation by intent, receives the matching endpoint schema, and executes the call with Jentic-managed authentication. This eliminates the need to read API documentation or handle bearer tokens manually.

Example prompt: Search Jentic for 'create a form', load the operation schema, and execute with Jentic-managed credentials

## Why Jentic

- **Setup:** Wiring the Typeform API by hand means attaching a bearer token on every call, matching each form and message operation to its request shape, and handling responses yourself. Through Jentic you install once, import the Typeform API from the API Directory, store the token once, and your agent calls it.
- **Permission scoping:** Typeform puts the form id in the URL path (/forms/{form_id}), so a rule can pin your agent to one form: it can read that form and its messages and nothing else. You choose the operations it may call, so destructive ones like deleting or replacing a form are not included unless you add them.
- **Credential handling:** Your Typeform token is stored once, encrypted, by your own Jentic One instance and injected at execution time. It never enters the agent's prompt, logs, or context.
- **Discovery method:** Agents search Jentic by intent such as 'create a form' or 'read a form's messages', and Jentic returns the matching Typeform operation with its input schema so the agent calls the right endpoint without browsing the reference docs.

## FAQ

### What authentication does the Typeform API use?

The Typeform API uses a Bearer token in the Authorization header. Through Jentic, these credentials are stored encrypted in your Jentic One instance and injected at execution time, so raw secrets never enter the agent context.

### Can I create a form with the Typeform API?

Yes. Use the POST /forms endpoint. The API returns structured JSON responses that agents can parse and act on directly.

### What are the rate limits for the Typeform API?

Rate limits are not specified in the OpenAPI spec. Check the vendor documentation for current limits. Through Jentic, rate limiting is handled automatically with retry logic built into the execution layer.

### How do I create a form through Jentic?

Install the Jentic SDK with pip install jentic, authenticate through Jentic One, the self-hosted execution layer, then search for 'create a form'. Jentic returns the matching Typeform API operation with its input schema. Load the schema and execute the call - credentials are injected automatically.

### How many endpoints does the Typeform API have?

The Typeform API exposes 30 endpoints covering account, forms, images operations.

### Can I limit what my agent is allowed to do with the Typeform API?

Yes. Because you run Jentic One yourself, your own rules decide which Typeform operations and credentials the agent may use. Since Typeform puts the form id in the URL path (/forms/{form_id}), a rule can pin the agent to a single form so it only reads that form and its messages and nothing else. You pick the operations it may call, so destructive ones like deleting or replacing a form stay out of reach unless you add them.
