Typeform is a platform for creating online forms, surveys, and quizzes with a user-friendly interface. It provides an interactive way to collect and analyze data from users through customizable forms.

​
Configuring Typeform as a Source

In the Sources tab, click on the “Add source” button located on the top right of your screen. Then, select the Typeform option from the list of connectors. Click Next and you’ll be prompted to add your access.

​
1. Add account access

You’ll need your Typeform Personal Access Token for this connection. You can find it in your Typeform developer settings. The following configurations are available:
  • Access Token: The personal access token used to authenticate against the API service.
  • Form ID (optional): The ID of the form to sync. The form ID can be found in the share URL (for example, in the URL https://form.typeform.com/to/DldPkDcN the ID is DldPkDcN). If not provided, all forms will be synced.
    • Single Form Mode: When you provide a Form ID, the connector will only sync data from that specific form.
    • Multiple Forms Mode: When no Form ID is provided, the connector will sync all forms and their responses. In this mode, all responses from all forms will be available in a single responses table.
  • Start Date: The earliest record date to sync. Only responses submitted after this date will be extracted.
Once you’re done, click Next.

​
2. Select streams

Choose which data streams you want to sync - you can select all streams or pick specific ones that matter most to you.
Tip: The stream can be found more easily by typing its name.
Select the streams and click Next.

​
3. Configure data streams

Customize how you want your data to appear in your catalog. Select the desired layer where the data will be placed, a folder to organize it inside the layer, a name for each table (which will effectively contain the fetched data) and the type of sync.
  • Layer: choose between the existing layers on your catalog. This is where you will find your new extracted tables as the extraction runs successfully.
  • Folder: a folder can be created inside the selected layer to group all tables being created from this new data source.
  • Table name: we suggest a name, but feel free to customize it. You have the option to add a prefix to all tables at once and make this process faster!
  • Sync Type: you can choose between INCREMENTAL and FULL_TABLE.
    • Incremental: every time the extraction happens, we’ll get only the new data - which is good if, for example, you want to keep every record ever fetched.
    • Full table: every time the extraction happens, we’ll get the current state of the data - which is good if, for example, you don’t want to have deleted data in your catalog.
Once you are done configuring, click Next.

​
4. Configure data source

Describe your data source for easy identification within your organization, not exceeding 140 characters. To define your Trigger, consider how often you want data to be extracted from this source. This decision usually depends on how frequently you need the new table data updated (every day, once a week, or only at specific times). Optionally, you can define some additional settings:
  • Configure Delta Log Retention and determine for how long we should store old states of this table as it gets updated. Read more about this resource here.
  • Determine when to execute an Additional Full Sync. This will complement the incremental data extractions, ensuring that your data is completely synchronized with your source every once in a while.
Once you are ready, click Next to finalize the setup.

​
5. Check your new source

You can view your new source on the Sources page. If needed, manually trigger the source extraction by clicking on the arrow button. Once executed, your data will appear in your Catalog.
For you to be able to see it on your Catalog, you need at least one successful source run.

​
Streams and Fields

Below you’ll find all available data streams from Typeform and their corresponding fields:
Stream containing form definitions and configurations.Key Fields:
Stream containing completed form submissions and answers.Key Fields:
Stream containing partial responses for forms that have a Partial Submit Point configured. A partial response only exists if the respondent passed the partial submit point but never fully completed the form.Key Fields:

Data Model

Usage Modes

​
Single Form Mode

When configuring the source with a specific Form ID:
  • Only data from the specified form will be extracted
  • The Forms stream will contain a single record
  • The Responses and Partial Responses streams will only contain data for that form
  • Useful when you only need data from a specific form

​
Multiple Forms Mode

When configuring the source without a Form ID:
  • Data from all accessible forms will be extracted
  • The Forms stream will contain all your forms
  • The Responses and Partial Responses streams will contain records from all forms in single tables
  • Each response will have a form_id field to link it to its specific form
  • Useful when you need to analyze data across multiple forms
