Update a Form

What this operation supports in Typeform

Updates an existing form's fields, settings, or metadata by its ID.

Implementation details

Typeform generally expects the form's structure to be provided as a full definition on update, so omitting an existing field from the update payload can remove it rather than leaving it untouched.

Operational considerations

Fetching the form's current definition first and merging in changes helps avoid accidentally dropping fields that weren't meant to change.

Keep forms in sync with evolving data models or branding guidelines.

1. Adjust field options in response to new validation rules in Typeform.
2. Update form appearance and sections across multiple forms in a rollout.
3. Apply conditional logic changes programmatically via automation in Typeform.
4. Route new responses to updated pipelines after a form update in Typeform.
