Downloading form data to CSV for FileMaker Pro

    Hi.
    I have a FileMaker Pro database and want to make fairly complex, multi-page forms that will generate data that I will transfer to the FMP database.

    I understand I can export the form data to a CSV or several other formats. How easy is it to transfer to FMP? I know you aren't FMP people, but I don't want to buy a solution that really isn't integrated well enough with my database.

    Any information you can provide to help me understand how GF and FMP talk to one another will be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks.

    Hi, MarkMonty,

    While in Gravity Form's admin, you have the ability to export the data for your forms. You may select all fields or individual ones and a date range. At present, you can only export this data into a .csv file. At that point you have the .csv file and would need to check out what data load options are available in your FileMaker Pro database. I do not know what is available in FileMaker Pro, whether you can import the file in this format and map fields, or if there are data transformation services.

    Also, all of the form data is saved in your WordPress database, so you have data Export options available within MySQL.

    So, Gravity Forms can export a .csv or you can work with the data directly in your WordPress database; it all depends on what FMP can do on its end.
