Read Paperform forms, submissions, products and coupons, Papersign documents, and manage coupons. Hosted by usefulapi — connect from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client.
Team and Enterprise: an Owner adds the connector for the organization first.
Run this command, then run /mcp in Claude Code to log in:
Add to Cursor or add this to ~/.cursor/mcp.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"paperform": {
"url": "https://paperform.usefulapi.io/mcp"
}
}
}Add to VS Code or add this to .vscode/mcp.json:
{
"servers": {
"paperform": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://paperform.usefulapi.io/mcp"
}
}
}Other MCP clients (Windsurf, Cline, Zed and more): add the URL as a remote MCP server (Streamable HTTP). The client then opens the login page in your browser. Do not add an Authorization header: see Before you connect.
The login page asks for your Paperform API key.
Create it in Paperform → Account → Developer (paperform.co/account/developer). API access comes with Paperform plans that include the Standard or Business API, or Papersign plans with the Papersign API. Your key is used only to call the Paperform API on your behalf; it is never shown to anyone.
Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config. The server signs you in with OAuth: the login page asks for your Paperform API key. If the config has such a header, remove it: some clients then send that header instead of the login token, and every call fails with 401.
| Tool | Type | What it does |
|---|---|---|
paperform_list_forms | read | List forms List the forms in the Paperform account (id, slug, custom_slug, title, url, live, tags, submission_count, space_id, dates), newest first. Search by title, or also by slug/custom_slug with search_fields. Start here to find the slug or id the other tools need. Paperform: GET /forms. |
paperform_get_form | read | Get a form Fetch one form by slug, custom slug or id: title, description, url, live flag, tags, submission_count, space and dates. Paperform: GET /forms/{slug_or_id}. |
paperform_list_form_fields | read | List form fields List a form's questions (key, title, type, required, custom_key, description, options). The field keys are the keys of a submission's `data` object, so read this to interpret answers. Paperform: GET /forms/{slug_or_id}/fields. |
paperform_list_submissions | read | List submissions List one page of a form's completed submissions, newest first: answers (`data`, keyed by field key — see paperform_list_form_fields), device and UTM info, payment `charge`, generated PDFs and created_at. Page with skip/next_skip or after_id/last_id; filter by date. Paperform: GET /forms/{slug_or_id}/submissions. |
paperform_get_submission | read | Get a submission Fetch one submission by id, with every answer, device info, payment charge and PDFs. Paperform: GET /submissions/{id}. |
paperform_list_partial_submissions | read | List partial submissions List one page of a form's partial submissions (someone started the form), newest first: answers so far, last_answered field, dates. Partials that were later completed stay in the list with submitted_at set; only those with submitted_at null are abandoned. Useful for drop-off analysis and follow-ups. Paperform: GET /forms/{slug_or_id}/partial-submissions. |
paperform_get_partial_submission | read | Get a partial submission Fetch one partial submission by id, with the answers given so far. It may have been completed since (submitted_at set); submitted_at null means abandoned. Paperform: GET /partial-submissions/{id}. |
paperform_list_products | read | List form products List the products sold on a form (SKU, name, price, quantity in stock, sold, minimum/maximum, discountable, images). Paperform: GET /forms/{slug_or_id}/products. |
paperform_get_product | read | Get a form product Fetch one product on a form by SKU: price, quantity in stock, sold count, limits. Paperform: GET /forms/{slug_or_id}/products/{sku}. |
paperform_list_coupons | read | List form coupons List a form's coupon codes (code, enabled, target, discountAmount or discountPercentage, expiresAt). Paperform: GET /forms/{slug_or_id}/coupons. |
paperform_get_coupon | read | Get a form coupon Fetch one coupon on a form by code. Paperform: GET /forms/{slug_or_id}/coupons/{code}. |
paperform_list_webhooks | read | List form webhooks List the webhooks on a form (id, target_url, triggers: submission / partial_submission, dates). Needs the Business API. Paperform: GET /forms/{slug_or_id}/webhooks. |
paperform_list_spaces | read | List spaces List the account's spaces (folders that group forms): id, name, dates. Needs the Business API. Paperform: GET /spaces. |
paperform_list_space_forms | read | List the forms in a space List the forms in one space. Needs the Business API. Paperform: GET /spaces/{id}/forms. |
paperform_list_papersign_documents | read | List Papersign documents List Papersign e-signature documents (id, name, status, folder, space, signers, variables, source form/submission, sent/completed dates), filtered by name, status, folder, space or the Paperform submission that created them. Needs the Papersign API. Paperform: GET /papersign/documents. |
paperform_get_papersign_document | read | Get a Papersign document Fetch one Papersign document by id: status, signers and their progress, variables, folder, space and dates. Needs the Papersign API. Paperform: GET /papersign/documents/{id}. |
paperform_get_signed_document_url | read | Get the signed PDF link Get a download link for a completed (fully signed) Papersign document as a PDF. A fresh link is made on each call and is valid for one week (expires_at_utc). Needs the Papersign API. Paperform: GET /papersign/documents/{id}/completed-document-url. |
paperform_list_papersign_folders | read | List Papersign folders List Papersign folders (id, name, parent_id, space_id), optionally inside one space or folder. Needs the Papersign API. Paperform: GET /papersign/folders. |
paperform_list_papersign_spaces | read | List Papersign spaces List Papersign spaces (id, name, root_folder_id). Needs the Papersign API. Paperform: GET /papersign/spaces. |
paperform_create_coupon | write | Create a form coupon WRITE: create a coupon code on a form, with a fixed discountAmount or a discountPercentage (not both), an optional target (price or subscription) and expiry. Respondents can use it at checkout as soon as it is enabled. Undo: paperform_update_coupon with enabled=false. Paperform: POST /forms/{slug_or_id}/coupons. |
paperform_update_coupon | write | Update a form coupon WRITE: change a coupon on a form — enable or disable it, change its discount (amount or percentage), target or expiry (null = never expires). Only the fields you pass are sent. Paperform: PUT /forms/{slug_or_id}/coupons/{code}. |
paperform_set_product_quantity | write | Set a product's stock quantity WRITE: set how many units of a form product are available (its stock quantity), e.g. after restocking. Replaces the current value; read it first with paperform_get_product. Not atomic: it overwrites rather than adjusts, so a sale between your read and this write is lost. Paperform: PUT /forms/{slug_or_id}/products/{sku}/quantity. |
paperform_set_product_sold | write | Set a product's sold count WRITE: set the number of units of a form product recorded as sold (e.g. to correct it after a refund or an offline sale). Replaces the current value; read it first with paperform_get_product. Not atomic: it overwrites rather than adjusts, so a sale between your read and this write is lost. Paperform: PUT /forms/{slug_or_id}/products/{sku}/sold. |
paperform_usage_status | Usage status (free-tier meter) Report the caller's current free-tier usage this month: calls used, monthly limit, remaining, and whether the cap is reached. Read-only; does not count against the meter. | |
paperform_request_feature | Request a missing feature Tell usefulapi that the user needs something the Paperform tools cannot do yet (a missing tool, field or filter). Call it only when the user asks for something none of the tools can do, and tell the user that you send the request. Do not call it for errors or for normal requests. Do not include personal data, credentials or customer records. Stored with the product name and the client type (for example Claude or Cursor), without the user's account. At most 5 requests per day. Does not count against the meter. | |
paperform_upgrade | Upgrade to Pro (unlimited) Subscribe to the Pro plan for UNLIMITED Paperform tool calls (the free tier caps monthly usage). Choose monthly ($9/month) or yearly ($90/year — 2 months free) billing. Returns a Stripe Checkout link to open in your browser; after payment your account upgrades automatically. Does not count against the meter. | |
paperform_cancel_subscription | Cancel the Pro subscription Cancel the caller's Paperform Pro subscription at the end of the paid period (no refund for the current period; unlimited calls continue until then, then the free tier applies). Requires confirm: true. Run paperform_upgrade later to undo the cancel before the period ends. Does not count against the meter. |
| Plan | Price | Limit |
|---|---|---|
| Free | $0 | 100 tool calls / month |
| Proper user | $9/mo · $90/yr | Unlimited |
Pro covers this Paperform server only. Subscribe with paperform_upgrade (it returns a Stripe Checkout link). Cancel any time with paperform_cancel_subscription: Pro continues to the end of the paid period, with no refund for the current period, and running paperform_upgrade before then undoes the cancel. Or write to [email protected].
No. usefulapi is an independent service. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by Paperform. The server calls the Paperform API with your own Paperform access, so it sees only the data that your account can see.
The login page asks for your Paperform API key. See Before you connect for where to find it.
No. Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config. The server signs you in with OAuth: the login page asks for your Paperform API key. If the config has such a header, remove it: some clients then send that header instead of the login token, and every call fails with 401.
The login stores them encrypted in the authorization grant of your connection. The server uses them to call the Paperform API for you and to derive a private account id for usage metering. usefulapi does not show them on any page or in any reply. To stop all access, remove the connector and change or delete these credentials in Paperform.
Yes, if you approve it. 4 of the 23 Paperform tools can create or change data. The other 19 are marked read-only. Most MCP clients ask you to approve a tool call before it runs.
The Free plan gives 100 tool calls / month. Pro costs $9/mo or $90/yr, with unlimited tool calls, for this Paperform server only. Run paperform_usage_status to see how many calls you used.
Ask the AI to run paperform_upgrade: it returns a Stripe Checkout link. To cancel, run paperform_cancel_subscription. Pro continues to the end of the paid period.
Tell the AI what you wanted to do. It can send the request with paperform_request_feature. We store the text with the server name, the type of AI client and the tool you tried, not with your account, and read every request when we plan new tools. You can send up to 5 requests per day.
Any client that supports remote MCP servers (Streamable HTTP) with OAuth login: Claude (web and desktop), Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf and others.
This is a Model Context Protocol endpoint — meant to be connected from an AI client, not opened in a browser. An invalid_token response at the URL is the auth gate working as designed; clients authenticate automatically.
