Guidelines

1. Authentication: Use the APIKEY header for all requests. Do not pass the API key as a URL parameter in production
2. Pagination: Use limit and offset query parameters to paginate large result sets. Default limit varies by endpoint
3. Filtering: Use the filter query parameter with URL-encoded JSON for advanced filtering (e.g., filter={"status:ne":"DELETED"})
4. Regional URLs: Use eu-api.jotform.com for EU accounts or hipaa-api.jotform.com for HIPAA-compliant accounts
5. Submission field keys: When creating or updating submissions, field keys use the format submission[QUESTION_ID] where the question ID comes from the form questions endpoint
6. Response format: All responses return JSON with a responseCode (200 for success) and content field containing the data
7. Rate limits: Jotform enforces API rate limits based on your plan. Monitor the response headers for rate limit information
8. Form IDs: Form IDs are numeric. You can find them in the form URL or by listing all forms
