Formgong MCP server

Connect Formgong to Cursor, Claude, VS Code, Lovable or Bolt. Your AI assistant can then create a form, fetch ready-to-paste code with the right access key, and check recent submissions without you copying keys by hand.

URL: https://formgong.com/mcp · Streamable HTTP · Authorization: Bearer fgp_…

Tools

  • list_forms — your forms with their public access keys and this month's submission count.
  • create_form — a new form; submissions go to your account email. Telegram and extra recipients are connected in the dashboard (the tool returns the links).
  • get_form_snippet — HTML, React or Next.js code for one form, with access key, _lang, botcheck honeypot and Turnstile when enabled.
  • list_recent_submissions — read-only, opt-in: time and submitted fields only, spam excluded by default, up to 50.

1. Create an API token

  1. Open Dashboard → Account → API tokens (confirm your email first).
  2. Name the token after the tool that will use it, e.g. “Cursor on my laptop”.
  3. Choose access: “Create forms” is on by default; “Read recent submissions” is off unless you need it.
  4. Copy the token (fgp_…). It is shown once; Formgong stores only a hash of it.

2. Add the server to your tool

Cursor

Cursor: add to ~/.cursor/mcp.json (all projects) or .cursor/mcp.json (one project). Set FORMGONG_TOKEN in your environment, or paste the token in place of the variable in a file you do not commit.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "formgong": {
      "url": "https://formgong.com/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer ${env:FORMGONG_TOKEN}"
      }
    }
  }
}

Claude Code

Claude Code: run once in your terminal.

claude mcp add --transport http formgong https://formgong.com/mcp \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer fgp_your_token"

Claude Desktop

Claude Desktop: custom connectors in Settings → Connectors need OAuth, which Formgong does not offer yet. Use the mcp-remote bridge (requires Node.js) in claude_desktop_config.json instead, then restart Claude Desktop.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "formgong": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "mcp-remote",
        "https://formgong.com/mcp",
        "--header",
        "Authorization:${FORMGONG_AUTH}"
      ],
      "env": {
        "FORMGONG_AUTH": "Bearer fgp_your_token"
      }
    }
  }
}

VS Code

VS Code (Copilot agent mode): add .vscode/mcp.json. VS Code asks for the token once and stores it securely.

{
  "inputs": [
    {
      "type": "promptString",
      "id": "formgong-token",
      "description": "Formgong API token (fgp_…)",
      "password": true
    }
  ],
  "servers": {
    "formgong": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://formgong.com/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer ${input:formgong-token}"
      }
    }
  }
}

Lovable

Lovable: Settings → Connectors → Custom MCP server. Enter the URL, choose “Bearer token or API key” and paste only the token (without the word Bearer).

URL: https://formgong.com/mcp
Authentication: Bearer token or API key
Token: fgp_your_token

Bolt

Bolt: Settings → Connectors (MCP) → Custom MCP server. Transport: HTTP. Authentication: API key, then paste the token.

Name: Formgong
URL: https://formgong.com/mcp
Transport: HTTP
Authentication: API key → fgp_your_token

Any other client that supports remote MCP over Streamable HTTP with custom headers works with the same URL and header. Stdio-only clients can use the mcp-remote bridge shown for Claude Desktop.

Try it

  • Create a Formgong form called “Contact – my site” and add it to the contact page.
  • Add the Formgong form “Contact” to this Next.js app as a client component.
  • Show me the last 5 messages from my contact form.

Security

  • A token acts on your account within its scopes. Keep it out of git, chats and screenshots; revoke it in Account → API tokens if it leaks.
  • Only forms you own are available. Forms shared with you through projects are not exposed.
  • Submissions are never available unless you tick “Read recent submissions”. IP data and browser details are never returned.
  • Submission text is written by your visitors. Treat it as untrusted: do not let an assistant follow instructions found in a message.
  • Tokens can expire after 30, 90 or 365 days. Session cookies never work on /mcp, so a web page cannot use your login.
  • Without a token, /mcp answers only initialize, ping and tools/list, so clients and MCP directories can see the tool list. Every tool call needs a token; without one the server returns an error that explains how to add it.

Limits

  • 60 requests per minute per token, 120 per account.
  • Requests without a token: 30 per minute per IP address.
  • 10 new forms per hour through the API.
  • Up to 10 tokens per account.
  • OAuth is not supported yet, so ChatGPT and claude.ai web connectors cannot connect directly. The site and the copy-paste prompts in these docs still work everywhere.
