# Jotform MCP server for AI agents.

actionlake is an MCP gateway: one remote MCP server that connects Claude and other MCP clients to Jotform and the rest of your systems. It gives your agent 55 Jotform actions (26 reads, 22 writes and 7 that wait for a confirmation) and holds the Jotform credential itself, so the agent never does. It paces Jotform's limits and records every call.

[Connect Jotform free](https://actionlake.com/console?start=sandbox) [See pricing](https://actionlake.com/pricing)

100,000 free calls a month. No card, no email, no password: press Start a free sandbox on the next screen and keep the key it shows you.

`claude mcp add --transport http actionlake https://connect.actionlake.com/mcp`

the first call

```
do {
  action: "jotform.folders.list",
  intent: "check which Jotform account is connected"
}
# Get User Folders · read · 1 upstream call
```

- 55 actions in one signed file
- 26 read look, never change
- 22 write create and update
- 7 wait for a yes destructive, confirmed first

Set up

## Connect Jotform in three steps.

1. 01
   ### Add actionlake to Claude.
   Run the command once in Claude Code; its consent page can create a free sandbox: 100,000 calls a month, no card. In the Claude app, add a custom connector with the URL below and paste your key on the consent page. Creating a new sandbox from the Claude app is not yet tested by us.
   `https://connect.actionlake.com/mcp`
2. 02
   ### Connect Jotform.
   API key. No consent screen: your agent can connect it for you, but the key then passes through your chat. To keep it out of the model's context, paste it in the console instead. actionlake stores what you paste write-only, sealed under your tenant's key.
   - `api_key` Jotform API key
   - `host` Where your Jotform lives: your host
   ```
   account { op: "connections.requirements", service: "jotform" }
   # free: exactly what to paste, and what is found for you
   ```
3. 03
   ### Make the first call. Check before a write.
   Ask in plain words; Claude picks the action. Before anything changes, `check` validates the call and prices it, for free.
   ```
   do    { action: "jotform.folders.list" }
   # get user folders · read · 1 upstream call
   check { action: "jotform.folders.create", input: { … } }
   # free: inputs, permissions, cost and confirmations, nothing sent
   ```

Top actions

## The Jotform API, shaped for agents.

The ids your agent types, what each does, and the one name it shares with other systems. 16 of Jotform's 16 action names are shared with at least one other connector, so an agent learns them once.

| Action | What it does | Effect | Same name in |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `jotform.user.get` Get User Information | Get User Information. | read | `identity.current_user.get` 307 connectors |
| `jotform.folders.list` Get User Folders | Get User Folders. | read | `content.folder.list` 62 connectors |
| `jotform.folders.create` Create Folder | Create Folder. | write | `content.folder.create` 62 connectors |

Try it

## Prompts to paste into Claude.

Each one names the Jotform actions it will call, so you know what it reads and what it changes before you send it.

1. Read read
   Who has access in Jotform? List every user and their role.
   calls `jotform.subusers.list`
2. Write write
   Create Folder in Jotform. Show me exactly what you will send before you save it.
   calls `jotform.folders.create`

Governance for Jotform

## Destructive actions wait for a yes.

7 Jotform actions are destructive. These are all of them:

- Delete Folder `jotform.folders.delete`
- Delete a form `jotform.forms.delete`
- Delete Submission Data `jotform.submissions.delete`
- Delete Label `jotform.labels.delete`
- Delete a Report `jotform.reports.delete`
- Delete a webhook of a specific form `jotform.webhooks.delete`
- Delete Form Question `jotform.form_questions.delete`

A destructive action runs only with `confirm: true`. Under the `human` policy the agent cannot confirm for itself: the run stops until a named person approves, in the console or from a signed link in an email. The cap on a key is refused before the call is sent, never after.

do jotform.folders.delete confirm_policy: **human**

Delete Folder?

**intent:** the user asked me to delete Folder

run suspended · waiting for a named person · key _jotform-agent_ cannot confirm itself

In the console, or from an emailed signed link.

a key for this connector

```
account {
  op: "keys.create", name: "jotform-agent",
  allowed_actions: ["jotform.*"], cap_calls: 2000,
  confirm_policy: "human_for_writes",
  approval_rules: [
    { match: "jotform.folders.delete", approver: "lead@example.com" },
    { match: "jotform.forms.delete", approver: "lead@example.com" },
    { match: "jotform.submissions.delete", approver: "lead@example.com" }
  ]
}
```

Illustrative. Scoped to Jotform only, capped at 2,000 upstream calls, every write confirmed, and the destructive ones approved by a named person.

Cost

## What Jotform costs on actionlake.

Every Jotform action is one upstream call, the only thing actionlake bills. Searching, `check`, `cost`, `account` and any call Jotform refused with 401, 403, 429 or a 5xx are free. Paid plans start at US$49 a month for 250,000 calls, with overage from US$0.30 down to US$0.18 per 1,000.

- 1 upstream call per action all 55 Jotform actions
- 55 actions page each page of a long list is one call
- 26 reads can be cached a cache hit costs nothing
- 100,000 calls a month, free paid plans from US$49 a month for 250,000

Questions

## The Jotform MCP server, answered.

**Is there a Jotform MCP server for Claude?**

Yes. actionlake is an MCP gateway: a remote MCP server that gives Claude, or another MCP client, 55 Jotform actions across forms, form questions, folders and labels, through the same eight tools it uses for every other connector. actionlake is independent; it is not made or endorsed by Jotform.

**What do I need to connect Jotform?**

Jotform API key. Plus your host. The free call account { op: "connections.requirements", service: "jotform" } lists exactly what to paste.

**Can an AI agent delete or change things in Jotform?**

Only if its key allows it, and only with an explicit confirmation. 7 Jotform actions are destructive, including delete Folder, delete a form and delete Submission Data. Each runs only with confirm: true. Under the human confirm policy, or an approval rule on the key, the run waits until a named person approves it.

**Will an AI agent use up my Jotform API limit?**

actionlake paces every call to the limits in the Jotform service file: 60 calls a minute per connection. Repeated reads are answered from cache (26 Jotform actions can be), which never reaches Jotform.

**What does a Jotform action cost?**

One upstream call, the only unit actionlake bills. A list that pages bills one call per page (55 Jotform actions page). Cache hits, searches, dry runs and calls Jotform refused with 401, 403, 429 or a 5xx are free. The Free plan includes 100,000 calls a month with no card. Paid plans start at US$49 a month for 250,000 calls, with overage from US$0.30 down to US$0.18 per 1,000.

**Which Jotform API does it cover?**

The Jotform REST API (api.jotform.com/docs) at your Jotform instance's API base URL, which you enter when connecting. It is built from Jotform's documentation as read on 22 October 2026. 55 actions in 17 areas, each one in the signed service file (version 1.0.0).

**Does actionlake keep my Jotform data, and where?**

actionlake processes and stores data in Sydney, Australia; there is no US region yet. Reads may be cached for up to 5 minutes, and a write clears the reads it affects. Each run's request and response is kept, sealed, for your plan's trace window: 1 day on Free, 3 days on Starter, 7 days on Pro, 14 days on Team, 30 days on Business and 30 days on Enterprise. Your Jotform credential is sealed under your tenant's key, never logged and never returned. Your traffic is not used to train models.

**Which AI clients can use it?**

Claude Code, tested by us end to end, and the Claude app as a custom connector, tested by us with an existing key. Other MCP clients that support remote servers over Streamable HTTP (MCP revisions 2025-06-18 and 2025-11-25) and OAuth dynamic client registration, or a bearer header, should connect the same way; we have not tested them. Or plain REST, under the same action names.
