How to Connect Getsitecontrol as Data Source
The integration will allow you to get data on new responses from Getsitecontrol forms, transferring this data to other systems. For example, you can feed new responses into your CRM or GoogleSheets and send them as notifications to yourself or a group of managers. You can also send data to an SMS or Email distribution service. This will allow you to automate the transfer of data from Getsitecontrol to other services and systems as much as possible.

Answers to frequently asked questions:
1. How to generate test data in Getsitecontrol?
To start setup a new connection, click “Create connection”.
Select the system as the Data Source. In this case, you must specify Getsitecontrol.
Next, you need to specify the action "Get DATA".
The next step is to select the Getsitecontrol account from which will get the data.
If there are no accounts connected to the system, click “Connect account”.
Enter the name of your account (if necessary) and click "Save".
After this, reload the page and select the connected account if this did not happen automatically.
Copy the link in the "URL for receiving data" field and go to your Getsitecontrol personal account.
Go to the Widgets section and next to your widget, click Edit.
Go to the Integrations section and next to Webhooks, click Add webhook.
In the URL field, paste the previously copied link from ApiX-Drive. Next, you need to configure the fields that will be sent to the Webhook; to do this, click Map fields.
Now click +Add field and add all the fields for which you want to send data. On the left side, select form variables by clicking on {var}, on the right side, enter the name of the fields that will be displayed when sending data. Also click Save to save the field settings.
After completing the Webhook settings, click Save again to save all settings.
The Webhook transfer connection is completed.
Note! After setup, our system will not immediately have test data and a list of fields, because nothing has come to the new URL yet.
It is necessary, to make an event, for example, fill out a form.
After that, at the Test stage in the Data Source, fields with data will displayed.
If this does not happen, click "Load test data from Getsitecontrol" or repeat the generation of test data, or wait for a while, the data does not come immediately, but within 1 minute.
If necessary, you can set up a Data Filter, or click "Continue" to skip this step.
To find out how to configure the Data Filter, follow the link: https://apix-drive.com/en/help/data-filter
Now you can see the test data.
If the test data does not appear automatically, click "Load test data from Getsitecontrol" or try to generate actions in your Getsitecontrol for which the connection is configured.
If you are satisfied with everything, click “Next”.

To generate test data, go to your site where you added your form. In this example, we have added a form to a WordPress page, so we go to the WordPress page with the form.
Fill out the form and click "Submit".
The responses will appear inside the form in the Responses section.
This completes the entire Data Source setup! See how easy it is!?
Now you can start setup the Data Destination system.
To do this, setup it yourself or go to the help section "Data Destination", select the service you need as Data Destination, and follow the setup recommendations.
Good luck!
