Can GF by itself, or with another plugin like cubepoints, allow for points to be earned when a user submits a form?
::Hypothetical::
User has three forms on a single page.
Forms are worth 1 point upon completion.
User completes all three forms and earns 3 points once they click on submit.
Cubepoints has this functionality however, I can't figure out how to hook into GF. Is there anything in there already, or are there any third party integration plugins, etc., that can be put in for this?
Reading about Cubepoints it seems they have an API. If that's the case, you will be able to integrate Gravity Forms with it. When a form is submitted, you can just notify the API about it, and Cubepoints will track the activity. Gravity Forms has a ton of hooks you can use to integrate with third party services.
Looking through their third party integrations, I didn't see anything for Gravity Forms. This is the first I've heard about it here. But if they have an API, you can use Gravity Forms' hooks to send them the data they need from the activity to track the points.

Thanks Chris, I'll look into this here. I'm putting the building blocks together with GF for a client and before making the investment into everything, just covering my basis.
Points combined with forms is a great way to motivate people to fill things out for surveys, etc. using GF. Might be something to consider as a "built in" option for GF.
Thank you.
No problem. If you purchase the plugin and need help integrating with Cubepoints, let us know.
