AI Integration (MCP)
Flow Forms includes a built-in MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that lets AI assistants like Claude, Cursor, and others manage your forms, submissions, and workflows directly. MCP is an open standard for connecting AI tools to applications.
What You Can Do
With the MCP integration, your AI assistant can:
- Manage forms - Create new forms, list existing ones, and view form definitions with all their fields
- Build form fields - Add, update, reorder, and delete form elements including text fields, dropdowns, file uploads, repeatable groups, and more
- Work with submissions - Create submissions, search and filter them, and view full submission details
- Handle approvals - Approve or deny submissions through your workflow, add notes and comments
- Control access - Set which groups can access specific forms
How It Works
- Configure your AI client with your Flow Forms MCP server URL
- Authenticate via OAuth - you approve the connection in your browser
- Start working - your AI assistant can now use Flow Forms tools on your behalf
The AI operates with your user permissions. It can only access forms and submissions that you have access to.
Quick Start
The fastest way to get started is with Claude Desktop:
- Open your Claude Desktop settings
- Add a new MCP server with the URL:
https://YOUR-SUBDOMAIN.flowforms.app/mcp - Save and restart Claude Desktop
- When prompted, approve the OAuth connection in your browser
See Connecting Your AI Client for detailed setup instructions for other clients.
What You'll Need
- A Flow Forms account
- Your tenant subdomain (the part before
.flowforms.appin your account URL) - An AI client that supports MCP (Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible tool)
