from jotform import *

def main():

jotformAPIClient = JotformAPIClient('YOUR API KEY')

forms = jotformAPIClient.get_forms()

for form in forms:
print form["title"]

if __name__ == "__main__":
main()
```

Get submissions of the latest form

```python
from jotform import *

def main():

jotformAPIClient = JotformAPIClient('YOUR API KEY')

forms = jotformAPIClient.get_forms(None, 1, None, None)

latestForm = forms[0]

latestFormID = latestForm["id"]

submissions = jotformAPIClient.get_form_submissions(latestFormID)

print submissions

if __name__ == "__main__":
main()
```

Get latest 100 submissions ordered by creation date

```python
from jotform import *

def main():

jotformAPIClient = JotformAPIClient('YOUR API KEY')

submissions = jotformAPIClient.get_submissions(0, 100, None, "created_at")

print submissions

if __name__ == "__main__":
main()
```

Submission and form filter examples

```python
from jotform import *

def main():

jotformAPIClient = JotformAPIClient('YOUR API KEY')

submission_filter = {"id:gt":"FORM ID", "created_at": "DATE"}

submission = jotformAPIClient.get_submissions(0, 0, submission_filter, "")
print submission

form_filter = {"id:gt": "FORM ID"}

forms = jotformAPIClient.get_forms(0,0, form_filter, "")
print forms

if __name__ == "__main__":
main()
```

Delete last 50 submissions

```python
from jotform import *

def main():

jotformAPIClient = JotformAPIClient('YOUR API KEY')

submissions = jotformAPIClient.get_submissions(0, 50, None, None)

for submission in submissions:
result = jotformAPIClient.delete_submission(submission["id"])
print result

if __name__ == "__main__":
main()
```

First the _JotformAPIClient_ class is included from the _jotform-api-python/jotForm.py_ file. This class provides access to JotForm's API. You have to create an API client instance with your API key.
In case of an exception (wrong authentication etc.), you can catch it or let it fail with a fatal error.
