How to receive Slack notification when somebody sends a Contact form (or any form) — No code — No Backend with ActionForms.io

Marc Garcia Torrent — Wed, 13 Oct 2021 15:34:56 +0000

As a developer or web designer, when you create a web form, you need to specify some action. The action is a URL or endpoint that your form will be sent. Meaning that you need a backend (code) that receives your form and send you email notifications, saves the data, and something else.

But what happens if I don’t know how to create a backend? Or what happens if I don’t wanna create backend for a simple form?

For that reason, I’ve created ActionForms.io.

ActionForms.io is a No code — No backend Form sender for developers.

With ActionForms.io, you can easily send your contact forms, surveys, questions, any form or request that you can imagine without coding or configuring a backend.

How can I get Slack notifications from my Contact Forms?

First of all, you need an ActionForms.io account, it’s really simple and there is a free plan if you want to try it! :)

Then, you have to create an “Endpoint”. An Endpoint is a URL where your requests will be sent to the ActionForms.io platform. When you log in to your account, you’ll see a button that you can create Unlimited Endpoints:

Let’s begin writing the basic information for the Endpoint, we need a Name (What you want. Ex: Contact form — Website) and the URL slug.

Good! Now we have an active endpoint ready to receive form requests. If we look into our Endpoint Edit page we’ll see the Slack Notifications menu, let’s click it.

How to configure Slack Notifications Webhook in ActionForms.io

We are at the Slack Notifications configuration page. We only need one thing: Webhook Url.

How can I get the Slack Webhook Url?

We have three steps tutorial inside the same configuration page, but let me show you how to do it!

First of all, we need to click on this link:

This link will redirect us to a Slack page that will ask us to install an App to our Slack workspace. This app is called Incoming Webhooks and allows you to receive notifications via Slack from external sources, like ActionForms.io.

If you are already logged in to your Slack workspace, then click Add to Slack button to install Incoming Webhooks in your workspace.

Select the channel to receive notifications

After installing Incoming Webhooks (in just one click), you need to choose the Channel that you will receive the incoming notifications.

You can create a channel specifically to receive notifications, or just select what you want.

Good, just one more step!

Once you selected the channel, you’ll see the Webhook URL right there:

Just copy this Webhook URL into ActionForms.io page that we opened before (Endpoint -> Slack notifications):

And that’s it!

Save it and you can test your notifications using the button “Send test Request” that just appears at the top of the page.

And… how much it will cost me?

Right now we have to different plans. Free and Premium.

Our free plan is completely functional and you can use it in all your projects.

Our Premium plan has a lot of potential features, you’ll have unlimited power and perform incredible web flows throw your form requests.

How to send a web form without code or any backend

But what happens if I don’t know how to create a backend? Or what happens if I don’t wanna create backend for a simple form?

For that reason, I’ve created ActionForms.io.

ActionForms.io is a No code — No backend Form sender for developers.

With ActionForms.io, you can easily send your contact forms, surveys, questions, any form or request that you can imagine without coding or configuring a backend.

But, how it works?

Imagine that you are building your own website, your app, etc…

Normally you’ll have a section with a contact form, a survey, or some form that you want to collect information of your users or clients.

Now, you have to send your form somewhere. And here appears ActionForms.io.

You only have to write your custom ActionForms.io URL in your action form, and then, let the magic happens.

What happens when I send the form to ActionForms.io?

When ActionForms.io receives your form/request, then the magic happens. First of all, you’ll have a private platform that you’ll see all your form requests for all your different forms. Let me show you some screenshots:

View of all your forms/endpoints:

If you click on any of your forms/endpoints you can see all the requests with all the information sent:

But… I have to enter the platform if I want to see if there are any new requests? Of course not!

You can set up custom notification channels for all your forms/endpoints.

With just One-click, you can configure to receive notifications of any request received via a lot of notification channels like Slack, Telegram, Email… And a lot more!

What else can I do with ActionForms.io?

We are developing more features every day and improving the platform. These are some of our features:

File uploads up to 20Mb
Endpoint fields rules
Recaptcha integration
Unlimited submissions
Unlimited endpoints
All notification channels
Premium integrations
And more coming…

And… how much it will cost me?

Right now we have to different plans. Free and Premium.

Our Premium plan has a lot of potential features, you’ll have unlimited power and perform incredible web flows throw your form requests.

Detectar campo modificado al guardar un modelo en Laravel

Marc Garcia Torrent — Tue, 24 Aug 2021 15:07:32 +0000

Bienvenido a a tod@s!

Este es un post muy corto solo para dejaros este pequeño Snippet de Laravel.

Se trata de detectar cuando el campo de un modelo de Laravel ha sido modificado, en este caso el campo email de un usuario:

// El evento se disparará cuando se haya actualizado un registro del modelo
static::updated(function ($userModel) {

    // Vemos si el campo email ha sido modificado con getDirty()
    if(isset($userModel->getDirty()['email'])) {
        // el campo "email" ha sido modificado
    }

});
