FormLynk Developer Reference

### FormLynk: Connect your forms. Send anywhere. **FormLynk** is a centralized, headless backend service designed to power contact forms, lead generation, quote requests, support tickets, and job applications for frontend-only websites without writing server backend code. #### How It Works: 1. **Frontend Request:** Your frontend website (Next.js, React, HTML, Shopify, WordPress) submits form data via `HTTPS POST` directly to `/api/v1/forms/submit` with your FormLynk API key. 2. **Authentication & Guarding:** FormLynk authenticates the key, checks CORS origin whitelisting, validates rate limits, inspects honeypots and spam scores, and validates field constraints. 3. **Instant Safe Storage:** The submission is immediately saved into the database with a public-safe UUID (`sub_xxxxxxxx`). 4. **Asynchronous Dispatch:** An asynchronous queue job is dispatched to send the notification email to configured recipient(s), send an auto-reply to the submitter, and trigger HMAC-signed webhooks. 5. **Fast Response:** FormLynk responds in milliseconds with a clean JSON success status. 6. **Audit & Logs:** Delivery logs, audit events, and file attachments are viewable in real-time in the FormLynk Admin Portal.
