Installation

# install with yarn
yarn add @typeform/api-client

# install with npm
npm install @typeform/api-client --save

Usage

Initialize

  1. Import client library
  // If using ESM syntax
  import { createClient } from '@typeform/api-client'
  // If using CJS syntax
  const { createClient } = require('@typeform/api-client')
  1. Create an instance with your personal token
  const typeformAPI = createClient({ token: '<your token>' })
  1. Use any of the methods available in the reference
  // will retrieve all forms
  typeformAPI
    .forms
    .list()
    .then(response => {
      // do what do you want with your typeforms
    })

Reference

createClient({token})

  • Creates a new instance of Typeform's JS client
  • Returns an instance with the methods described below
  const typeformClient = createClient({ token: '<your token>' })

  // If what you are trying to acces doesn't require a token, you can construct the client without any argument
  const typeformAPI = createClient()

Client returns the following properties:

  • forms
  • images
  • teams
  • workspaces
  • themes
  • responses
  • webhooks

Each one of them encapsulates the operations related to it (like listing, updating, deleting the resource).

  • Get a list of your typeforms
  • Returns a list of typeforms with the payload referenced here.

forms.create({ data = {} })

forms.update({ uid, data = {}, override = false })

  • url: URL of the image. Use this or image (above)
  • fileName: File name for the image

images.delete({ id })

Responses

responses.delete({ uid, ids })

  • Delete responses to a form.

  • after: Limit request to responses submitted after the specified token. If you use the after parameter, the responses will be sorted in the order that our system processed them (instead of the default order, submitted_at).
  • before: Limit request to responses submitted before the specified token. If you use the before parameter, the responses will be sorted in the order that our system processed them (instead of the default order, submitted_at).

Examples

Update specific typeform property, as referenced here

  typeformClient
    .forms
    .update({
      uid: 'asdf',
      data: [
        {
          "op": "replace",
          "path": "/title",
          "value": 'new title'
        }
      ]
    })
    .then(response => {
      //...
    })

Update the whole typeform

  typeformClient
    .forms
    .update({
      uid: 'asdf',
      override: true,
      data: {
        "title": newTitle,
        "theme": {
          "href": "https://api.typeform.com/themes/6lPNE6"
        }
      }
    })
    .then(response => {
      //...
    })

Note: The theme property applies a theme to the form. If you don't specify a value for the 'theme' property, Typeform applies a new copy of the default theme to the form, even if you already have a copy of the default theme applied to this form.

Uploading an image

  typeformClient
    .images
    .add({
      image: "bGRqZmxzZGpmbHNoZmtoc2RrZmpoc2tqZA==",
      mediaType: "image/gif",
      fileName: "newimage.gif"
    })
    .then(response => {
      //...
    })

Getting the thumbnail of an image

  typeformClient
    .images
    .get({ id: 'asdf', size: 'thumbnail' })
    .then(response => {
      //...
    })
