Flojoy Cloud is the easiest way to supercharge your test & measurement data with powerful data visualizations, collaboration, and easy to use APIs for Python, LabVIEW, and MATLAB.

You can use our public Flojoy Cloud instance for your test and measurement data here: https://cloud.flojoy.ai

## Prerequisites

- [Flojoy Cloud account](https://cloud.flojoy.ai)
- [Zapier account](https://zapier.com)
- [Quickbase account](https://www.quickbase.com)

:::note
These steps can be generalized for form services (other than Quickbase) such as Google Forms, Typeform, Formspree, etc.

## Steps

### In Flojoy Cloud

- Create a Flojoy Cloud account if you haven't
- Create a `Workspace` inside Flojoy Cloud
- Create a `Project` inside that workspace (you may have to create a hardware model)
