I'm not sure I completely understand, but this looks like something that will require a significant amount of custom code. Can you explain how you want to use this synup API?
- Tell me in a few steps how your site visitors will use this feature.
- Tell me what data you expect to capture and store from this Form on your WordPress site.
- Tell me how you plan to use the results of this external API query, assuming you are able to perform the query with your own custom code.
