GWW 294: API Alchemist 🤝 Gravity Flow

Greetings, wizards!

It’s our first weekly of the New Year and it is beefy. 🍔

Before we jump in, I have a simple question for you.

What would you like from us (Gravity Wiz) this year? More products? More features? More content? All of the above? Or maybe something completely different?

Drop a comment below and let us know your hearts deepest magical desires. 💖

Top Picks: Product Highlights

GP Bookings
✦ Turn Gravity Forms into your complete WordPress booking platform.

We are mere days away from granting GP Bookings it’s well-earned Beta 1 badge. Two exciting updates for you this week.

First, you can now show how many spots are left for each time slot in the Booking Time field. Useful to communicate scarcity and secure those early bookings.

Second, bookings are now fully editable when editing their associated entry. This includes the service, resource, date and time — including the ability to specify dates and times outside of a service or resource’s typical availability. With great power comes great editability. 🕷️

GC API Alchemist
✦ Connect Gravity Forms to any API — push, pull, and populate live data.

Hello, Gravity Flow! API Alchemist made friends with the #1 Gravity Forms workflow builder, allowing you to trigger API requests directly within your workflows.

—

GP Inventory
✦ Easy, flexible inventory management for Gravity Forms.

By customer request, we’ve added an option to toggle inventory limits on the Inventory Dashboard. This is useful if you want to compare the amount of inventory left with the original capacity.

GC OpenAI
✦ Connect Gravity Forms with the unrivaled power and intelligence of AI.

Remember a few weeks ago when GPT-5.2 launched right after we added support for GPT-5.1? Haha, well, I’m happy to announce we’ve added support for GPT-5.2 well before GPT-5.3. 😉

Spotlight: Multi-Platform Subscription Flows with API Alchemist

Jeff Lenning had a middleware solution to connect WordPress with an external subscription platform that worked well for many years. But, the middleware was locked away in an external server, which meant he wouldn’t be able to do anything if it started having any issues like compatibility conflicts with either platform.

After learning about the integration between API Alchemist and Populate Anything, Jeff saw an opportunity to take this connection between platforms into his own hands without having to write a single line of code.

How To: Send Follow Up Emails to Incomplete Submissions

Create an automatic reminder flow for incomplete Gravity Forms submissions similar to abandoned carts—an abandoned form, if you will.

Videos: Generate AI Images & Text in Gravity Forms

There’s been a new face brightening our tower lately and she’s been whipping up a ton of great video content. 😄

Come meet Izzy and learn how to generate AI images and text with your forms. The cool thing is that you can do both live in the form or after submission.

Snippet: Hide WooCommerce Price

If you’re using GS Product Configurator to generate dynamic pricing, you may not want to show a default price at all. We whipped up a snippet to make that possible.

This snippet hides the WooCommerce price in shop, archive and single product pages, if the product uses GS Product Configurator.
