I would like to create an entry point for our users using a Form but currently, the Form view of Fibery is too much limited :
it is not possible to authenticate users (without creating an account for them) and be sure that only users of your domain fill the form.
if I want to avoid creating an account for everyone, I need to share the Form to the Web. If I do that, I cannot use fields that contains data to avoid unauthorised people to access it.
there’s no if/else or switches that permit to create branches based on field answers.
So, I’m wondering if someone is using a third party form builder and integrated it with Fibery, and how to do that ?
We used Gravity Forms to ingest data into Fibery using their API on a WordPress website – it was fairly straightforward. You can use it to create conditional fields, custom verification, etc.
As @grex22 mentioned you can use other form builders for intake, but I wanted to add that AI artifact generators have become quite good, too. You could prototype a few Artifacts for intake using Claude for example, and then evaluate the need from there, i.e. whether you would need a fully fledged external form builder, or just a small publishable artifact-like thing from some AI code generator (not exactly the public artifacts from Claude of course).
Currently, I’m looking for a temporary solution. I’m waiting for improvements to be made to the Form view so that I do not have to rely on another tool.
My pleasure. For temporary solutions, it may be safer and faster to just use your existing external automation system to connect to your existing form system, for example n8n/pipedream/make/etc. to Google Forms. Good luck!
One of the best no-code form builders I use all the time is Fillout.com. IMO the best balance between ease, speed and flexibility. Can include some custom CSS, conditional branching and integrates with everything. For your case it also has ability to authenticate forms with built in Google sign-on with lots of options:
I have some Fillout forms embedded in Dashboard, sends a webhook to Relay.app, and then automation steps processed and ends up in a Fibery db.
It’s OK for input but unfortunately only Airtable to “Pre-fetch” data from db so not dynamic. I have thought about using a formula field to create unique URL with URL params. But not dynamic and it would get messy with a lot of fields and exposes things like email address if you need that.
At the moment I still think the temporary solution is a custom form built with Claude or LLM of choice, and embed that as a view in a Dashboard. It’s on my list of mini projects to try.
