JSON:API Frontend Webform

jsonapi_frontend_webform is an optional addon for jsonapi_frontend. Drupal Webforms are interactive routes (not JSON:API content entities), so this addon teaches the resolver how to handle Webform pages cleanly in hybrid headless setups.

Features

• Extends /jsonapi/resolve so Webform routes (including aliased paths like /contact → /form/contact) resolve as non-headless.
• Returns drupal_url so frontends can redirect/proxy to Drupal for rendering + submission (no iframes required).
• Respects route access and treats restricted forms as “not found”.

Post-Installation

• Enable webform, jsonapi_frontend, then enable jsonapi_frontend_webform.
• Configure jsonapi_frontend at /admin/config/services/jsonapi-frontend (especially your Drupal URL/
  origin and proxy secret if using frontend-first).
• Ensure your frontend routing/proxy forwards Webform routes (typically /form/*) to Drupal in Split routing or Frontend-
  first mode.

Additional Requirements

• webform
• jsonapi_frontend

Recommended modules/libraries

• If you attempt fully headless form rendering/submission (advanced), you may evaluate webform_rest and a frontend renderer library. This addon itself is hybrid-first and does not require them.

Similar projects

• next_webform / nextjs-drupal-webform: aims at fully headless Webform rendering (Next.js-specific). jsonapi_frontend_webform focuses on the
  simpler, cross-framework hybrid approach (proxy/redirect to Drupal).
