Anothet test:

\<?php function pushMauticForm2($data, $formId) { /\*\* \* Push data to a Mautic form \* \* @param array $data \* @param integer $formId \*/ $data['formId'] = $formId; $data['return'] = 'http://www.myurl.com.br'; $data = array('mauticform' =\> $data); //$formUrl = $this-\>getMauticBaseUrl() .

## Another example submiting an kiosk form to insert the contact (lead) on a segment. The Mautic reacts but does not record the action.
\<?php //set POST variables $url = 'http://myurl.com.br/form/submit?formId=7'; $fields = array( 'mauticform[email]' =\> urlencode($\_POST['example@gmail.com']), 'mauticform[formId]' =\> urlencode($\_POST['75']), ); //url-ify the data for the POST foreach($fields as $key=\>$value) { $fields\_string .= $key.'='.$value.'&'; } rtrim($fields\_string,'&'); //open connection $ch = curl\_init(); //set the url, number of POST vars, POST data curl\_setopt($ch,CURLOPT\_URL,$url); curl\_setopt($ch,CURLOPT\_POST,count($fields)); curl\_setopt($ch,CURLOPT\_POSTFIELDS,$fields\_string); //execute post $result = curl\_exec($ch); //close connection curl\_close($ch); ?\>
