Gravity Forms is an excellent plugin for creating forms, but requires loading jQuery in the front-end for AJAX submissions to work. Obiously we would like to avoid a full reload on submission, but also not include JQuery in this day and age where vanilla JavaScript is so capable.
This plugin makes use of the built-in REST API in Gravity Forms, and uses that to submit the form and perform validation. File uploads and multi-page forms are supported.
By only using vanilla JavaScript, this plugin is 1.5kB (v1.1 minified and gzipped), compared to the 31kB of jQuery (3.6.1 minified and gzipped). A 95% reduction in size!

Remove jQuery from Gravity Forms

Makes Gravity Forms submit forms using the built-in REST API and removes jQuery as a dependency.

REST API Log

Exactly what I needed

its trash.
whilst i do like the idea of the plugin, this tool is simply not working properly. guess it's abandoned. 
there is a filter build in to filter for the request type, but it does not work (simply doesn't filter at all). and there is an option, to purge logs, that are older than x days, but this doesn't work ether. and deleting the logs takes ages, you might want to do that in the db directly. so handle with care, as it will bloat the db and it'll be hard to find the data, you might be looking for..

don't!!1!

This is great tool to log REST API calls. Period.

1 star? 5 stars!
