This plugin enhances Gravity Forms by providing the ability to export individual form entries as a <code>.json</code> file directly from the entries list. It allows you to define a custom JSON structure using a template editor within each form’s settings, where you can insert Gravity Forms merge tags and even utilize conditional logic shortcodes. A live preview feature helps you validate your JSON template before export.
