- Create PDF Sharing WebhookCreates a webhook that notifies an endpoint when PDF sharing events occur.
- Create Secure Send MessageCreates a new Secure Send message with PIN-protected file delivery and sends or saves it as a draft.
- Create Secure Send WebhookCreates a new Secure Send webhook that notifies a URL when message events occur.
- Create User WebhookRegisters a user-level webhook that fires for submission events across all forms in the account.
- Delete FormPermanently deletes a file request form, including all of its fields and submissions.
- Delete PDF Sharing WebhookPermanently deletes a PDF sharing webhook by its ID.

- Delete WebhookDeletes a user-level or form-level webhook by ID.
- Export Form SubmissionsExports all submissions for a file request form as a binary CSV or JSON file.
- Get FormRetrieves a single file request form by its UUID.
- Get PDF ShareRetrieves a PDF share by its UUID. Status Pending Verification means FileDrop is still processing; poll until Active to obtain the share_url.
- Get Secure Send MessageRetrieves a Secure Send message by ID, including its upload status, share URL, and attached files.
- Get SubmissionRetrieves a single form submission by its UUID.
- List Form SubmissionsReturns a paginated list of submissions for a file request form.

Frequently asked questions
Common questions about connecting Ahrefs and FileDrop.
Connect your Ahrefs and FileDrop accounts once, pick a trigger in one app and an action in the other, then map the fields so data flows automatically between them. [3]
Example: when FileDrop's "Watch Events" fires, WEXTL can "Add a Keywords List" in Ahrefs. Ahrefs has 57 actions (including Add a Keywords List, Add Competitors, and Create a Project); FileDrop has 31 actions (including Approve Submission, Create Form, and Create Form Webhook). Add filters and transforms between steps when you need them. [1]
Yes — the integration works in both directions. Use each app's triggers to start a workflow and the other app's actions to update it. [2]
No. Ahrefs-to-FileDrop automations are built visually on the canvas. You can optionally add custom JavaScript with Functions when you need advanced logic. [4]
Yes. Trigger-based automations start the moment Ahrefs (or FileDrop) fires a new event — webhook-backed apps run within seconds, and polling-only apps re-check on a schedule you control. [7]
A first automation typically takes 5–10 minutes: connect each app's credential once, drop a trigger + action onto the canvas, map the fields, and turn the workflow on.
You can build your Ahrefs + FileDrop automation on a 3-day trial with every feature unlocked. Cancel anytime. For your protection, a small deposit is charged to your card when your trial starts. It counts toward your first payment and is non-refundable. [8]
