Create SureForms Form

Write

SureForms Forms sureforms/create-form

Create a new SureForms form from a title, an array of field definitions, and optional metadata.

Requires the SureForms plugin on WordPress 6.9+ (the Abilities API is gated behind function_exists('wp_register_ability'), so it degrades gracefully on WP 6.4-6.8). Abilities only register when the 'srfm_abilities_api' option is enabled in SureForms' AI settings, and every ability requires the current user to have the 'manage_options' capability. Abilities that create or modify data additionally require the 'srfm_abilities_api_edit' option to not be explicitly disabled; abilities that permanently delete data additionally require 'srfm_abilities_api_delete' to not be explicitly disabled.

What it does

This ability builds a new SureForms form by reusing the plugin's existing Field_Mapping engine to turn a list of field definitions into Gutenberg block markup. It supports all standard SureForms field types (input, email, textarea, dropdown, checkbox, multi-choice, phone, number, url, address, gdpr, payment, inline-button) and accepts optional formMetaData for confirmation messages, compliance/entry-retention rules, instant-form styling, email notifications, and submission restrictions. The new form is saved as a WordPress post with a configurable formStatus (publish, draft, or private; defaults to draft) and the response includes the ready-to-use shortcode. This lets an AI assistant turn a plain-language form request straight into a working, embeddable SureForms form.
