Webhook integrations are available on Formstack Pro, Premier, and Enterprise plans. The free trial includes webhook access. Starter plans do not include the webhook integration. If you are on Starter, use Zapier as a bridge to send Formstack data to the Finseo API.
Formstack offers HIPAA compliant plans for healthcare teams. The Finseo webhook uses HTTPS for transport security and supports HMAC signing for payload integrity. Discuss BAA requirements with both vendors before deploying in HIPAA environments.
Formstack sends field IDs (numeric) rather than field names in the webhook payload. In Finseo, go to Attribution Settings, then Field Mapping. Set the path to your attribution field (e.g. "rawRequest.field_12345"). Finseo extracts the value and categorizes it.
Yes. Formstack supports HMAC signing on webhooks. Configure a signing key in the Formstack webhook settings, then add the same key in Finseo Attribution Settings. Finseo verifies every payload signature and rejects tampered requests.
The integration is for Formstack Forms (the form builder). Formstack Documents (document automation) and Formstack Sign (e-signature) are separate products. They have their own webhook systems but are not currently integrated with Finseo.
