Creating Your Form

Once you've added a question to your form, you can hover your cursor over the question and a settings bar will appear:

This will allow you to set a 'required question', move the order of your question up or down, or delete the question if needed.

Sharing Your Form

Once you're finished editing, you have a few different options for sharing your completed form with existing and potential clients.

To do so, select 'Send Form' in the top righthand corner of the form:

You can select 'copy to clipboard' to add this into your website HTML directly.

  • Send via Email

You have the option to email the form to your client directly. Simply select them from the 'client' dropdown and include an email message if you'd like. Once you're ready select 'Send Form'.
