Get Submission is a WordPress ability from Ninja Forms — usable via Easy MCP AI, which connects Claude, ChatGPT, and any AI assistant to your site.
Install Free Plugin →Get Submission
Read-onlyRetrieve full field-level detail for a single submission.
Requires the Ninja Forms plugin on WordPress 6.9+ for the Abilities API (all 32 abilities are registered only when the wp_register_ability() function exists, via NF_Abilities_Integration::load_abilities_api() running on plugins_loaded). Every ability is gated by the same ninja_forms_ability_can_manage_forms() permission callback, requiring the caller to hold WordPress's manage_options capability or Ninja Forms' own nf_edit_forms capability.
What it does
This ability returns the complete data recorded for one submission by its submission_id, including all field values. An AI assistant should first resolve the submission_id via ninjaforms/get-submissions when the user refers to a submission descriptively rather than by ID.
