Integration · Forms
Connect Claude & ChatGPT to FormBackend
Ask your AI what came in through your forms without opening each one in FormBackend. It can list your forms, read the submissions of any form and confirm which account it is connected to. Counting sign-ups, finding a specific reply or summarizing a week of contact requests takes one question.
Free plan, no credit card. Takes about a minute.
Try asking
“Which forms do I have in FormBackend?”
The AI lists your forms with their names and identifiers.
“Show me the latest submissions to the contact form.”
It finds the contact form's identifier and lists the submissions it has received.
“How many people signed up through the event form last week?”
It reads the event form's submissions for that week and counts them.
What your AI can do
Forms
List every form in the account with its name and identifier.
Submissions
Read the submissions a form has received, so the AI can count, filter and summarize them.
Read-only by design
All tools only read data. The AI cannot create, change or delete forms or submissions.
“Summarize what people asked about in this month's contact requests.”
It reads the month's submissions and groups the questions into a short summary.
“Did anyone from acme.com fill in the quote form?”
It reads the quote form's submissions and picks out the ones with an acme.com email address.
“Which FormBackend account are you connected to?”
It reads the connected account's details so you can confirm you are in the right place.

Questions
What can the AI do in FormBackend?
The AI can list your forms, read the submissions of a form and read the connected account's details. It works with what your forms have received, for example to count, find or summarize replies.
Does the AI see my FormBackend credentials?
No. Your FormBackend API key is encrypted at rest and never shown to the AI. After you save it, it is not shown again, not even to you. The AI only sees the results of the tools it calls.
Can I control what the AI is allowed to do?
Yes. You choose which tools are switched on. All FormBackend tools in PipMCP only read data, so the AI cannot change or delete forms or submissions. Every tool call is logged.
Does it work with ChatGPT?
Yes. In ChatGPT go to Settings › Apps & Connectors › Advanced and turn on Developer mode, then add your PipMCP link. Developer mode needs a paid ChatGPT plan: Plus, Pro, Business or Enterprise. The same link also works in Claude (Settings › Connectors › Add custom connector), Cursor and other MCP clients.
What does it cost?
PipMCP has a free plan with no credit card required. Paid plans bill per completed task. You also need your own FormBackend account.
Which permissions should the API key have?
FormBackend API keys are scoped. The tools in PipMCP only read forms and submissions, so give the key Read forms and Read submissions and leave out Create and delete forms. That way the key itself cannot change anything, on top of the tools you switch on.
