Netlify submission-created function

An isolated demo of a netlify submission-created function. Hosted on Netlify at https://romantic-kirch-49286a.netlify.app/

The Question

Is it possible to modify the response of a submission-created Function?

The setup

  • A form (in inedx.html) with a single text field, handled with Netlify Forms
  • A Netlify function for the submission-created event in functions/submission-created.js

Expectations

When submitting the form, the expecation is that I will see the return value specified in submission-created.js

return {
  statusCode: 200,
  body: JSON.stringify({ message: "A new form submission came in" }),
};

Reality

When submitting the form, I see the standard Netlify Forms submission success screen

More info

The function is being invoked. I can confirm that with the function log:

The form submissions are coming in as expected. Can see those in the Verified submissions.

Something that makes this tricky

When running locally with netlify dev this works as expected. Submitting the form responds with the custom response set in submission-created. It makes sense because we don't have the standard Netlify form success page locally, but does create confusion because it's different than how things work in production.
