Sending submission data to an API

    Hi,

    I’ve tried to extend the action module with my own module for sending the submission data to an API. I don’t want to create a separate plugin for that, so I’ve extended my functions.php file with this code:

    <?php

class NewsletterApi extends awsmug\Torro_Forms\Modules\Actions\Action {
    protected function bootstrap() {
	$this->slug  = 'newsletter-api';
	$this->title = 'Newsletter API';
    }
	
    public function handle( $submission, $form ) {
        wp_die($submission);
    }
}

torro()->modules()->actions()->register( 'newsletterapi', 'NewsletterApi' );

    For testing purposes I wanted to show the submission data after submitting the form with wp_die, but nothing happens.

    Would be great if you can give me a hint!

    Best,
    Marc

    Hi Marc,

    can you try to wrap the torro function into the torro_loaded actionhook?

    Like this example:

    add_action( 'torro_loaded', function() {
   torro()->modules()->actions()->register( 'newsletterapi', 'NewsletterApi' );
});

    Hi Sven,

    unfortunately this approach does not work either.

    Is there a simple example which will definitely work? I think that another module for this kind of behaviour would be great when already bundled with torro forms.

    OK! Ich will check this out later and will come back with code which works.

    Hi Marc!

    sorry about the late answer! Here is a complete working example for an extension.

    class NewsletterApi extends awsmug\Torro_Forms\Modules\Actions\Action {
	protected function bootstrap() {
		$this->slug  = 'newsletter-api';
		$this->title = 'Newsletter API';
	}

	public function handle( $submission, $form ) {
		// your code
	}

	public function  enabled( $form ) {
		return true;
	}
}
add_action( 'init', function() {
	torro()->modules()->actions()->register( 'newsletterapi', 'NewsletterApi' );
});

    Hi Sven,

    thank you, works great!
    I am getting the values from the form in an array via $submission->get_element_values_data(). Is there a better way? Instead of numbers it would be great if I can read the values in the array with predefined keys.

    Best,
    Marc
