Integration

OpenForms can be integrated with other systems easily. There are a variety of standard export formats and there is also the potential to plugin custom formats too. Standard formats include PDF, Schema-less XML, CSV, XLS and many more.

Standard integration using the tools available out of the box can take one of two forms:

  • Data can be “pushed” to another system on an event, such as a form having been completed or checked.
  • Data can be “pulled” from OpenForms via a SOAP-based Web Service.

There is also the possibility for a custom integration module to be added to OpenForms should the need arise. For example, direct data insert into a secondary database would usually require a custom module to be developed. Please contact Magicomm for further information about custom integration options.
