public class PrintFormList {

	public static void main(String[] args) {
	
		JotForm client = new JotForm("YOUR API KEY");
		
		
		JSONObject formsResponse = client.getForms();
		
		try {
			JSONArray forms = formsResponse.getJSONArray("content");
			
			for (int i=0; i<forms.length(); i++){
				JSONObject form = forms.getJSONObject(i);
				
				System.out.println(form.get("title") + " (Total:" +form.get("count") + " New:" + form.get("new") + ")");
			}
		} catch (JSONException e) {
			e.printStackTrace();
		}
		
	}
}

		JotForm client = new JotForm("YOUR API KEY");
		
		JSONObject formsResponse = client.getForms("", "1", null, "");
		
		try {
			JSONArray forms = formsResponse.getJSONArray("content");
			
			JSONObject latestForm = forms.getJSONObject(0);
			
			long latestFormID = Long.parseLong(latestForm.get("id").toString());
			
			JSONObject submissions = client.getFormSubmissions(latestFormID);
			
			System.out.println(submissions);
			
		} catch (JSONException e) {
			e.printStackTrace();
		}
	}
}

public class SubmissionFormFilters {
		
	public static void main(String[] args) {
		
		JotForm client = new JotForm("YOUR API KEY");
		
		HashMap<String, String> submissionFilter = new HashMap<String, String>();
		submissionFilter.put("id:gt", "FORM ID");
		submissionFilter.put("created_at:gt", "DATE");

		JSONObject submissions = client.getSubmissions("", "", submissionFilter, "");
		
		System.out.println(submissions);
		
		HashMap<String, String> formFilter = new HashMap<String, String>();
		formFilter.put("id:gt", "FORM ID");
		
		JSONObject forms = client.getForms("", "", formFilter, "");
		
		System.out.println(forms);
	}
}

Delete last 50 submissions

package com.jotform.api.samples;

import org.json.JSONArray;
import org.json.JSONException;

	public static void main(String[] args) {
		
		JotForm client = new JotForm("YOUR API KEY");
		
		JSONObject submissionsResponse = client.getSubmissions("", "50", null, "");
		
		JSONArray submissions;
		try {
			submissions = submissionsResponse.getJSONArray("content");
		
			for (int i=0; i<submissions.length(); i++){
				JSONObject submission = submissions.getJSONObject(i);
				
				JSONObject result = client.deleteSubmission(Long.parseLong(submission.get("id").toString()));
				
				System.out.println(result);
			}
		} catch (JSONException e) {

}

First the JotForm class is included from the jotform-api-java/JotForm.java file. This class provides access to JotForm's API. You have to create an API client instance with your API key. In case of an exception (wrong authentication etc.), you can catch it or let it fail with a fatal error.
