Automate VA Forms
HumDay reads VA Forms’s own published API description and derives 2 operations from it. Describe the outcome you want in plain words — you get a program that is written, proven on real data, and run for you.
What VA Forms is
Use the VA Forms API to search for VA forms, get the form's PDF link and metadata, and check for new versions. Visit our VA Lighthouse [Contact Us page](https://developer.va.gov/support) for further assistance. ## Background This API offers an efficient way to stay up-to-date with the latest VA forms and information. The forms information listed on VA.gov matches the information returned by this A
API host: sandbox-api.va.gov

How automating VA Forms works
- Describe the outcome. Say what you want to happen, in your own words. No node graphs, no field mapping.
- Approve the contract. HumDay writes down exactly what it will do, what it will touch, and what it will never do. You approve it before anything is built.
- See it proven. The program runs and shows you the result before it is allowed near your live VA Forms account.
- Grant access, then go live. You approve the specific VA Forms operations it may use — and only those.

Questions about VA Forms automation
- Can HumDay connect to VA Forms?
- Yes. HumDay reads VA Forms's own published API description and derives the operations from it, so there is no hand-built connector to wait for. 2 operations are documented.
- Do I need to write code to automate VA Forms?
- No. You describe the outcome you want in plain words. HumDay agrees a contract with you, writes the program, and shows you a test run before anything touches your VA Forms account.
- What can HumDay do in VA Forms?
- 0 of the 2 documented operations change something in VA Forms, and 2 read from it. HumDay only ever uses the specific operations your approved contract needs.
- Is my VA Forms account safe?
- Your credentials are stored encrypted and are never shown in chat, code, or logs. Every run is limited to the operations you explicitly approved, and anything that writes to VA Forms is held behind that approval.
Where this came from
The operations above are read from a published API description for VA Forms at api.va.gov/services/va_forms/docs/v0/api. Descriptions are the provider’s own words, not ours. Last published 2023-03-06.
