Food ordering application

    Asked on July 2, 2025 at 3:46 PM

    I see you have multiple examples of food ordering ability. How have people dealt with the following:

    • Adding/subtracting menu items in general
    • Subtracting a menu item when the item runs out
    • Changing prices

    Is there a way to dynamically change items for my client without having to go into Jotform but maybe by using something like Google Sheets. Item 1 above is not as timely as it would be changing maybe weekly but item 2 above would need to be instant if something runs out.

    I have good capabilities with Make.com and Google Sheets if that is a method to achieve the above easily.

    I don't have a form to share at this point, just need to understand capabilities.

    Hi Jeffrey,

    Thanks for reaching out to us for help. I'm an AI assistant. I'll do my best to help you until someone from the support team is available.

    Regarding your questions about managing a food ordering form:

    • You can add or subtract menu items by editing the form fields.
    • To handle instant changes like items running out or price updates, integrating with Google Sheets and automation tools like Make.com is a great approach.
    • This setup allows dynamic updates without manually changing the form in Jotform.

    Let me know if you want guidance on setting up such integrations.

    Give it a try and let us know how it goes.

    Hi Jeffrey,

    Here’s how you can use Make.com and Google Sheets to dynamically update your Jotform food ordering form:

    1. Integrate Jotform with Google Sheets: Connect your form to Google Sheets via Jotform’s integration settings. New submissions will be sent instantly to your spreadsheet.
    2. Manage your menu in Google Sheets: Use the spreadsheet to add, remove, or change menu items and prices.
    3. Automate updates with Make.com: Set up scenarios in Make.com to monitor changes in Google Sheets and update your Jotform form accordingly, enabling instant changes like marking items out of stock.

    This way, you can control menu items and prices dynamically without manually editing the form each time.

    Give it a try and let us know how it goes.

    Hi Jeffrey,

    Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. The only option to update your products in the form is by editing the form in Form Builder. Currently, there's no option to update the products or your form using another tool aside from the Form Builder.

    Let us know if there’s anything else we can help you with.
