Build a Typeform form programmatically using the Create API, including multiple field types and a logic jump

In-depth guide

Steps

1. Create a Personal Access Token in your Typeform account and use it as a Bearer token against api.typeform.com
2. POST a JSON payload to the forms endpoint describing the form's title, theme, and an ordered fields array (e.g. short_text, multiple_choice, opinion_scale, rating types)
3. Add a logic block to the payload defining jump rules: each rule references a field's ref, a condition (op/vars/value), and a to target (another field ref or an ending)
4. Send the request and inspect the response for the generated form id and public share URL
5. Use a subsequent GET on the form to confirm fields, logic, and hidden field declarations were saved as submitted
6. Iterate with PATCH/PUT updates rather than recreating the form to preserve the form id used by embeds and links
