Assignment

Build a Web Form Generator that connects to Shuffle workflows

Task instructions 📝

Users should be able to build standalone forms inside Shuffle that can be shared with others, and when an action is performed (form opened, form submitted, etc), it triggers a flow inside Shuffle workflow such as Form Submitted -> Fires a trigger inside Shuffle workflow -> Workflow sends an email to [email protected].

Task Expectations 👩‍💻👨‍💻

• Be able to create and build forms inside Shuffle with all standard input types.
• The form needs to be accessible to outsiders with just a link.
• Actions performed on the form need to connect to the workflow as triggers.
  • Don't worry about what workflow will be like. The goal is to make sure something is triggered when an action is performed on the form.
  • Feel free to test your form on this usecase: Form Submitted -> Fires a trigger inside Shuffle workflow.
  • If your standalone form can fire a trigger inside Workflow, we'll consider your assignment complete.
