Form Integration

The IT Audit Machine is designed to create forms that can be easily integrated into an organization's existing website. Administrators can use the multiple embedded code options to link or deploy an ITAM form within an existing webpage utilizing a familiar coding method.

Integration Options

ITAM comes with multiple options to integrate your forms and your data, depending on the nature of the integration your organization desires. If you want to work with one of the 3rd party providers that have already provided an integration with ITAM, that option is available. If you want data from your ITAM Forms sent to your website via an API or Webhook, that option can be configured on your form. Finally, if you wish to link to or embed an ITAM form in your existing website, there is also a way to do that.

Existing Platform Integrations

Several third-party providers have created integrations for the IT Audit Machine forms. These integrations are specific to each platform, and new integrations are added periodically.

To see what integration options are available for a form, use the Integration icon on the form.

Clicking the Integration icon on a form takes you to the Integration Settings page, which lists the available integrations. Clicking an available integration displays the fields the provider requires for integration with their environment. Each provider has its own requirements for integrating with its system.

To find out more about existing platform integrations, please contact the ITAM Service Desk.

Webhook Integrations

If your website can receive custom data via an API or other methodology, ITAM can send information via the Notification or Logic interface. See the Form Notifications and Form Logic pages for more details.

Embedding Forms and Fields

If your organization desires to integrate an ITAM form directly into your website, you can use the Embed options at the form or field level. The form and field embedding options work similarly: the former embeds the entire form, whereas the latter embeds a single field.

Embedding a Form

The form embed options are found by editing the form and selecting the Form Properties from the Toolbox on the right.

Clicking the Show More Options link expands the Toolbox to display additional form options. At the bottom of the options are the Form Embed Options.

Using The Iframe Code

The iframe code option allows an organization to embed a form directly on its website. The generated code will seamlessly insert the form into your existing web page, suppressing the form's background, border, and logo header to avoid conflicting with your website design. It may be necessary to manually adjust the iframe's height to display the form's Submit button properly.

Sample Code:

<iframe onload="javascript:parent.scrollTo(0,0);" height="1139" allowTransparency="true" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" style="width:100%;border:none" src="https://auditmachine.com/auditprotocol/embed.php?id=62826" title="Data Risk Calculator - Sample 0%-100%"><a href="https://auditmachine.com/auditprotocol/view.php?id=62826" title="Data Risk Calculator - Sample 0%-100%">Data Risk Calculator - Sample 0%-100%</a></iframe>

Using a Simple Link

If an organization cannot or does not wish to embed an iframe, it is almost always possible to embed a link. The Simple Link option creates a link that, in most cases, redirects the current page to the Form. Depending on the organization's website configuration, the Simple Link may behave like the Popup Link.

It can also be used to share your form via email.
