# How to connect a partner application form?

We don't provide built-in forms (partner application forms, lead forms, etc). But we do provide an easy way to connect external forms with Kiflo.

To create partner applications from an external form you have 4 options:

1. [Use the JS SDK](#use-the-js-sdk)
2. [Use the Rest API](#use-the-rest-api)
3. [Use an external provider like Google Forms](#use-an-external-provider-like-google-forms)
4. [Use our WordPress integration](#use-our-wordpress-integration)

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Partner status**

Regardless of the option you choose, you need to create **Partners** in Kiflo using the special status: **Applicant.** New partners created with the **Applicant** status are visible from the **Program's page**, on the **Applications** tab.
{% endhint %}

## Use the JS SDK <a href="#use-the-js-sdk" id="use-the-js-sdk"></a>

The JS SDK is best suitable when you build the form yourself and want to connect it directly from your Website to your Kiflo account.

Please refer to the JS SDK documentation available in the developer section. Especially:

* [How to connect your Website with Kiflo](/developers/js-sdk/get-started.md)
* [How to create partner applications](https://docs.kiflo.com/article/41-connect-partner-application-form-to-kiflo)

## Use the Rest API <a href="#use-the-rest-api" id="use-the-rest-api"></a>

The Rest API is best suitable when you want to create partner applications from your backend and not directly from your Website.

Please refer to this page for more information: [Create partner using API](https://docs-api.kiflo.com/#b044d112-46dd-42ad-b98d-c796852169cf)

## Use an external provider like Google Forms <a href="#use-an-external-provider-like-google-forms" id="use-an-external-provider-like-google-forms"></a>

You can use Google Forms, Typeform, or any other external service that helps you build forms. In such a case you will use Zapier to get the form submissions into Kiflo.

Please refer to this page for more information: [Create a Google Forms to get partner signups](/integrations/website-forms/google-form-partners-sign-ups.md)

## Use our WordPress integration <a href="#use-our-wordpress-integration" id="use-our-wordpress-integration"></a>

This option is best suitable when you have a WordPress website and use WPForms to create forms.

WPForms is a free WordPress plugin that can be connected directly with Kiflo, without an intermediate solution, like Zapier. If you do have a WordPress website but use another plugin to manage forms (ex: Cognito Forms, Active Campaign, etc), you will use Zapier to create partner applications in Kiflo. Please read the previous section for more details.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs-vnext.kiflo.com/manage-partners/recruit-partners/connect-partner-application-form.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
