Nextcloud Forms
Survey and questionnaire app for Nextcloud that creates forms, collects responses and can embed a form in an external website.
Nextcloud Forms is a survey and questionnaire app that runs inside a Nextcloud server. Forms are shared through public share links, and a share link can be converted to an embeddable link. The embedding guide shows an iframe that places the form on an external website, with messages that resize the frame and report a saved submission. The app also has a Forms Public API for custom forms, described in the repository, and the Nextcloud server can send Forms events to webhook listeners.
The repository describes a development setup that clones the app into the apps folder of a Nextcloud server and builds its JavaScript. The app’s PHP side runs on the Nextcloud server, and results can be exported as CSV in the format Google Forms uses.
Worth knowing
The app runs only on the Nextcloud server versions named in its metadata, so it depends on that server for its database and storage.
