Common errors when connecting

chevron-rightWe couldn't verify your webhook settingshashtag

This could be due to one of these reasons: - your plumber account email is not registered with FormSG - your form credentials are invalid or form is not public - a server error on our side (contact us!)

chevron-rightThe form you are trying to connect is currently being used in another pipe. Continuing with this connection will cause the other pipe to break.hashtag

Ensure that current pipe is no longer in use before proceeding.

chevron-rightThe form is currently connected to a different endpoint. Continuing with this connection will override this setting.hashtag

You may have set your form webhook endpoint to something else that is not a plumber webhook endpoint. Proceeding with the connection will no longer allow the current webhook endpoint to receive further submissions.

Check step

The Check step button generates mock responses based on your form fields. This allows you to verify that Plumber has connected the correct form with the correct fields.
