I got this to work for me on Mautic 2.15.2 and PHP 7.1. I used the MauticJS.makeCORSRequest() method to do the request. The reason being the request is coming from a site that has the Mautic JS library loaded but from an action on the page (starting a chat) rather than an actual Mautic form. Here's the code:
MauticJS.makeCORSRequest('POST', 'https://my.mauticsite.com/form/submit', {'mauticform[formId]':9999, 'mauticform[formName]': 'formnamefrommautic', 'mauticform[form_field_from_your_form]':'someformdata', 'mauticform[messenger]': 1});
Just make sure to set all your post variables to match the formId, formName, and formFields...

Thanks, I simplied ur code and worked well with me

  function sendMautic() {
    var name = $("#name").val();
    var email = $("#email").val();
    var whatsapp = $("#whatsapp").val();
    $.ajax({
        url: "https://domain.com/form/submit?formId=XX",
        type: "post",
         enctype: 'multipart/form-data',
          headers: {'X-Requested-With': 'XMLHttpRequest'},
        data: { "mauticform":{
          name : name,
          email : email,
          whatsapp :whatsapp,
          return : "",
          formId : XX,
          formName : "yourformname",
          submit : ""
        }} ,
        success: function (response) {
          console.log("Data: " + response);
           // You will get response from your PHP page (what you echo or print)
        },
        error: function(jqXHR, textStatus, errorThrown) {
           console.log(textStatus, errorThrown);
        }
    });
  }

Another example to send via fetch

function serializeData(obj) {
    if ('string' == typeof obj) {
        return obj;
    }
    return Object.keys(obj).map(function(key) {
        return encodeURIComponent(key) + '=' + encodeURIComponent(obj[key]);
    }).join('&');
}

async function sendToMautic(name, email) {
    const FORM_ID = XX
    const url = 'https://domain.com/form/submit';
    
    const data = {
        'mauticform[formId]': FORM_ID,
        'mauticform[enter_your_name]': name,
        'mauticform[enter_your_email]': email
    };

    return fetch(url, {
        method: 'POST',
        headers: {
            'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded;charset=UTF-8',
            'X-Requested-With': 'XMLHttpRequest',
        },
        body: serializeData(data)
    })
}

I believe this does no longer work with Mautic v3. I use the same parameters on a production form and on the v3.0.0-beta running locally with DDEV.

The values get added to the form on production. On my local instance, I receive a 500 error

log:
mautic.CRITICAL: Uncaught PHP Exception Doctrine\ORM\ORMInvalidArgumentException: "A new entity was found through the relationship 'Mautic\FormBundle\Entity\Submission#lead' that was not configured to cascade persist operations for entity: Mautic\LeadBundle\Entity\Lead with ID #. To solve this issue: Either explicitly call EntityManager#persist() on this unknown entity or configure cascade persist this association in the mapping for example @ManyToOne(..,cascade={"persist"})." at /var/www/html/vendor/doctrine/orm/lib/Doctrine/ORM/ORMInvalidArgumentException.php line 102 {"exception":"[object] (Doctrine\\ORM\\ORMInvalidArgumentException(code: 0): A new entity was found through the relationship 'Mautic\\FormBundle\\Entity\\Submission#lead' that was not configured to cascade persist operations for entity: Mautic\\LeadBundle\\Entity\\Lead with ID #.

Does anybody else have the same problem?

Is there any intention to get this working in M3?

}

Thanks! This works for me with Mautic 3.0.2!

@g00dv1n thanks for the inspiration! I added a simple validation.

const formData = new FormData()
formData.append('mauticform[formId]', 1)
formData.append('mauticform[messenger]', 1) // required

// form inputs names
formData.append('mauticform[first_name]', first_name)
formData.append('mauticform[last_name]', last_name)
formData.append('mauticform[email]', email)
formData.append('mauticform[f_message]', message)

fetch('https://yourmautic.com/form/submit', {
  method: 'POST',
  headers: {
    'X-Requested-With': 'XMLHttpRequest'
  },
  body: formData,
})
.then(response => response.text())
.then(result => {
  if (result.includes('results')) {
    console.log('Thank you for a message')
  } else {
    console.log('Error')
  }
})
.catch(() => {
});

The HTML form worked perfectly for me on wordpress and WPBakery. Aafter 2 days of fighting with the mautic 3.2.1 submitform insisting to call http instead of https. Thank you.

I used the code on my website, but it complains that "first_name", "last_name", "email" and "message" is not defined.
I do not know javascript. I tried to define them like this:

formData.append('mauticform[vorname]', document.getElementById('firstname'))
formData.append('mauticform[nachname]', document.getElementById('lastname'))
formData.append('mauticform[email]', document.getElementById('email'))

and it sends a form to Mautic, but those fields are empty.
How do I send the values correctly?

Also, is there a way of doing this for more than just one form on the same website?

thank you for your help.

@peseotni could you provide a minimal example on https://jsfiddle.net/ etc.?

@peseotni in your javascript, you have just a script for posting data, but you are missing an event (on click submit button, etc.) to trigger that script and validation of inputs. If you are not familiar with javascript use embeds from mautic administration, pls...
