What can I ask?

Turn on the GoFormz connector, then ask in plain words. The AI picks the tools.

What you can do with GoFormz in Claude and ChatGPT

For teams that collect field and office paperwork in GoFormz, such as inspections, work orders and delivery receipts.

Find completed forms for a template

The AI lists the forms of one template by status and last update, and opens a form to show every field value.

Create and assign a draft form

The AI creates a draft form from a template, pre-fills the fields you give it and assigns it to a user or group.

Changes data

Correct a form's field values

The AI changes the name or selected field values of a form. Only the fields you name change, and the status stays as it was.

Changes data

Export a finished form to PDF

The AI starts the PDF export of a form, waits for the job to finish and returns the temporary download link.

Changes data

Keep dropdown lookup tables up to date

The AI reads a data source and its rows, then adds a row or replaces one (every column is sent), so dropdowns in your templates show current values.

Changes data

Reopen or complete a form

The AI sets a completed form back to draft so it can be edited, or marks a draft complete. Completing can start the template's workflows and webhooks.

How do I connect GoFormz?

Before you connect

Patient data: Do not use this server with protected health information (PHI). We do not sign HIPAA Business Associate Agreements (BAAs). See Terms, Health data.

The login page asks for your GoFormz Client ID and GoFormz Client Secret.

In the GoFormz web app open Settings, then API Access. Copy the Client ID and the Client Secret (the secret is shown once; use Regenerate if you lost it). API access depends on your GoFormz plan and has a daily call quota; ask your GoFormz account manager if the API Access page is missing. They are used only to call the GoFormz API on your behalf; they are never shown to anyone.

No Add custom MCP server option? It depends on your account or workspace settings: see OpenAI's guide.

Claude Code

Run this command, then run /mcp in Claude Code to log in:

claude mcp add --transport http goformz https://goformz.usefulapi.io/mcp

Cursor

Add to Cursor or add this to ~/.cursor/mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "goformz": {
      "url": "https://goformz.usefulapi.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

VS Code

Add to VS Code or add this to .vscode/mcp.json:

{
  "servers": {
    "goformz": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://goformz.usefulapi.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Codex

Run these commands. The second one opens the login page:

codex mcp add goformz --url https://goformz.usefulapi.io/mcp
codex mcp login goformz

Other clients

Windsurf, Cline, Zed and other MCP clients: add this URL as a remote MCP server (Streamable HTTP). The client then opens the login page in your browser.

https://goformz.usefulapi.io/mcp

Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config. The server signs you in with OAuth: the login page asks for your GoFormz Client ID and GoFormz Client Secret. If the config has such a header, remove it: some clients then send that header instead of the login token, and every call fails with 401.

Each paid plan covers this GoFormz server only. Ask your AI to run goformz_upgrade and choose Pro or Pro+, billed monthly or yearly (it returns a Stripe Checkout link). If you already have Pro, ask to change it to Pro+. The change requires your confirmation, keeps your billing interval and charges the price difference for the rest of the period immediately. Cancel any time with goformz_cancel_subscription: your paid plan continues to the end of the paid period, with no refund for the current period, and asking to resume the same plan with goformz_upgrade before then undoes the cancel. Or write to [email protected].

  • Export a form to PDFgoformz_export_form_pdf
    WRITE: start a PDF export of a form (the form is not changed; GoFormz creates a PDF file). The reply gives the queue_id of the job: poll goformz_get_queue_item until Completed, then read the file with goformz_get_file using the id in redirectUrl.
  • Create a formgoformz_create_form
    WRITE: create a new draft form from a template, optionally pre-filled and assigned to a user or group (assignment is only possible at creation). Field keys are the template's field names (or ids) and the values are field objects such as {"text": "Acme"}; see goformz_get_form on an existing form of the template for each field's shape. Each call creates another form.
  • Update a formgoformz_update_form
    WRITE: change a form's name and/or field values (partial update: only the fields given change; a null value clears a field). Does NOT change the status and does not trigger workflows; to re-run completion workflows use goformz_set_form_status draft, update, then complete.
  • Complete or re-open a formgoformz_set_form_status
    WRITE: mark a form complete (this can trigger the template's completion workflows and webhooks) or re-open it as a draft so it can be edited.
  • Add a data source rowgoformz_create_datasource_row
    WRITE: add a row to a data source. key_column is the lookup key; values are the column values in the data source's column order (see goformz_get_datasource). Each call adds another row.
  • Update a data source rowgoformz_update_datasource_row
    WRITE: replace a data source row's key and values (the whole row is replaced; send every column).

Your usefulapi plan · 4

  • Usage status (free-tier meter)goformz_usage_status
    Report the caller's current usage: the plan, calls used this month, the limit of the plan (the free monthly cap or the Pro fair use limit), remaining, and whether the limit is reached. Read-only; does not count against the meter.
  • Request a missing featuregoformz_request_feature
    Tell usefulapi that the user needs something the GoFormz tools cannot do yet (a missing tool, field or filter). Call it only when the user asks for something none of the tools can do, and tell the user that you send the request. Do not call it for errors or for normal requests. Do not include personal data, credentials or customer records. Stored with the product name and the client type (for example Claude or Cursor), without the user's account. At most 5 requests per day. Does not count against the meter.
  • Upgrade to Pro or Pro+goformz_upgrade
    Get a paid plan for GoFormz (the free tier caps monthly usage). Pro: 10,000 tool calls a month, for normal use — plan "monthly" ($9/month) or "yearly" ($90/year, 2 months free). Pro+: 100,000 tool calls a month, for automations and heavy use — plan "plus" ($39/month) or "plus_yearly" ($390/year). Without a plan it returns both Pro and Pro+, each with a payment link, for the user to choose; with a plan, one link. An existing Pro subscription changes to Pro+ in place (needs confirm: true; the price difference for the rest of the period is charged at once). Cancel any time: the plan then runs to the end of the paid period, so it also suits a one-time job. A link opens Stripe Checkout in the browser; after payment the account upgrades automatically. Does not count against the meter.
  • Cancel the Pro subscriptiongoformz_cancel_subscription
    Cancel the caller's GoFormz Pro subscription at the end of the paid period (no refund for the current period; Pro continues until then, then the free tier applies). Requires confirm: true. Run goformz_upgrade later to undo the cancel before the period ends. Does not count against the meter.

FAQ

What can I do with GoFormz in Claude or ChatGPT?

Find completed forms for a template. Create and assign a draft form. Correct a form's field values. Export a finished form to PDF. Keep dropdown lookup tables up to date. Reopen or complete a form. See what you can do for the details.

Is this an official GoFormz product?

No. usefulapi is an independent service. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by GoFormz. The server calls the GoFormz API with your own GoFormz access, so it sees only the data that your account can see.

Can I use this server with patient data (PHI)?

No. Do not use this server with protected health information (PHI). We do not sign HIPAA Business Associate Agreements (BAAs). See Terms, Health data.

Can I connect GoFormz to Claude or ChatGPT?

Yes. In Claude, add this server's URL as a custom connector. In ChatGPT, add it as a custom MCP server in Plugins. Then log in once. Cursor, VS Code, Claude Code and Codex work too. See the setup steps.

What do I need to connect?

The login page asks for your GoFormz Client ID and GoFormz Client Secret. See Before you connect for where to find them.

Do I put my GoFormz key or an Authorization header in the client config?

No. Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config. The server signs you in with OAuth: the login page asks for your GoFormz Client ID and GoFormz Client Secret. If the config has such a header, remove it: some clients then send that header instead of the login token, and every call fails with 401.

How do you keep my GoFormz credentials?

The login stores them encrypted in the authorization grant of your connection. The server uses them to call the GoFormz API for you and to derive a private account id for usage metering. usefulapi does not show them on any page or in any reply. To stop all access, remove the connector and change or delete these credentials in GoFormz.

Can the AI change my GoFormz data?

Yes, if you approve it. 6 of the 23 GoFormz tools can create or change data. The other 17 are marked read-only. Most MCP clients ask you to approve a tool call before it runs.

What does it cost?

The Free plan gives 50 tool calls / month. Pro costs $9/mo or $90/yr, with 10,000 tool calls / month. Pro+ costs $39/mo or $390/yr, with 100,000 tool calls / month. Each subscription covers this GoFormz server only. Cancel any time: your paid plan then runs to the end of the paid period. Run goformz_usage_status to see how many calls you used.

How do I subscribe or cancel?

Ask the AI to run goformz_upgrade and choose Pro or Pro+, billed monthly or yearly: it returns a Stripe Checkout link. If you already have Pro, ask to change it to Pro+. After you confirm, your existing subscription changes in place, keeps its billing interval and charges the price difference for the rest of the period immediately. To cancel, run goformz_cancel_subscription. Your paid plan continues to the end of the paid period.

What if a GoFormz tool that I need is missing?

Tell the AI what you wanted to do. It can send the request with goformz_request_feature. We store the text with the server name, the type of AI client and the tool you tried, not with your account, and read every request when we plan new tools. You can send up to 5 requests per day.

Which AI clients can I use?

Any client that supports remote MCP servers (Streamable HTTP) with OAuth login: Claude (web and desktop), Claude Code, ChatGPT, Codex, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf and others.

This is a Model Context Protocol endpoint — meant to be connected from an AI client, not opened in a browser. An invalid_token response at the URL is the auth gate working as designed; clients authenticate automatically.
