XML-RPC is a remote procedure call (RPC) protocol encoded in XML. It can integrate Odoo Forms with third-party websites by allowing the website to communicate with Odoo and transfer data between them.

Here's an example of how you can use XML-RPC to integrate Odoo Forms with a third-party website:

Enable the XML-RPC on Odoo: Go to the Odoo settings and enable the XML-RPC by activating the option "Enable the XML-RPC web service."

Create a form on the third-party website: Create a form on the website using HTML and JavaScript. The form should include fields for collecting data, such as name, email address, and other relevant information.

Send the form data to Odoo using XML-RPC: Use the XML-RPC library in the website's code to send the form data to Odoo. This can be done by calling the appropriate Odoo API method and passing the form data as an argument.

Store the data in Odoo: Once the data is received, it can be stored in Odoo by creating a new record in the appropriate model, such as a lead or a contact.

Retrieve the data from Odoo: You can retrieve the data stored in Odoo by calling the appropriate Odoo API method and passing the necessary arguments.


 It's important to note that the integration steps may vary depending on the version of Odoo and the website platform. An expert with knowledge of XML-RPC and Odoo should be consulted to set up the integration.

XML-RPC is a remote procedure call (RPC) protocol that uses XML to encode its calls and HTTP as a transport mechanism. It allows software components to communicate with each other over the internet.

Integrating forms on external websites with Odoo using XML-RPC can be done in a few simple steps. This integration allows you to collect data from your website visitors and store it directly in your Odoo database.

Here is how to integrate forms on external websites with Odoo using XML-RPC:

Create a form on your website: 

Use HTML and CSS to create a form on your website that collects the data you want to store in Odoo. The form should include fields for all of the information you want to collect, such as name, email, and message

Add JavaScript to the form:

Use JavaScript to send the data from the form to Odoo via XML-RPC. You can use the xmlrpc library for JavaScript, which provides a simple interface for making XML-RPC calls.

Configure XML-RPC: 

In Odoo, go to the "Settings" menu and select "General Settings." In the "XML-RPC" section, set the "Enabled" option to "True." Then, set the IP address and port for XML-RPC.

Create a model in Odoo to store the data:

In Odoo, create a new model to store the data from your form. This model should include fields for all of the information you want to collect, such as name, email, and message.

Add code to handle the XML-RPC call:

In Odoo, add code to handle the XML-RPC call from the form on your website. This code should extract the data from the call, validate it, and create a new record in the model you created in step 5.
