Hi,

I need to send lead from sever to sever, here is the code when the form is submitted:

let data= {
'munchkinId': 'xxx-xxx-xxx',
'formid': xxx,
'Email': 'xxxx@xxx.com'

}
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
url: '//xxx.oursite.com/index.php/leadCapture/save',
data: data,
success: function (data) {
   console.log('run callback here');
},
error: function (xhr, error) {
console.log(xhr, error);
}
});

by doing this, I can send this lead to Marketo but I get failed status. since I need a callback when lead is sent, does anyone know how to fix this?

The forms endpoint isn't to be used directly. Use the Forms API to submit a background form as noted here: https://developers.marketo.com/blog/make-a-marketo-form-submission-in-the-background-3/

An Ajax POST isn't "server to server." Please explain in detail what you're sending and where the form lives.

Sorry for the confusion. it is not server to sever. Basically, when the user submits a form I will send a lead to markto by using this code:

HTML:

<form>
<input type="button" class="js-lead-capture" value="Submit">
</form>

JS:

$('.js-lead-capture').click(function (e) {
e.preventDefault();
const data = {
'munchkinId': 'xxx-xxx-xxx',
'LeadSource': $.cookie('XYZutm_source'),
'Phone': '888-888-8888',
'Person Source': 'test',
}

$.ajax({
type: 'POST',

url: '//mysite.com/index.php/leadCapture/save',
data: data,
success: function (data) {
 //do something else here:
    console.log('data sent');
},
error: function (xhr, error) {
   console.log(xhr, error);
}
});
})

when running this test, I can see the lead is added into markto but return a 'failed' status response (as I sent that screenshot) so that my success function does not get through.

thanks,

const data = {
'munchkinId': 'xxx-xxx-xxx',
'formid':'xxxx', // (formid is included)
'LeadSource': $.cookie('XYZutm_source'),
'Phone': '888-888-8888',
'Person Source': 'test',
}
