Create and manage forms¶
Forms collect answers from customers, in chat, on the web or through a shared link. At the end, you have a form you can find, publish and keep tidy.
Before you start¶
- You can see Forms in the left rail. If not, ask your admin.
Steps¶
Open your forms¶
- Open Forms in the left rail, then select Forms.
- Read the line under the title: Whatever your customers fill in — chat, web, or a shared link.
- Click All, Draft, Active or Archived. Each shows a count.
- Use the Any source picker to narrow by where the form came from. Use the search box to find a name.
Start a new form¶
- Click New form. Start a new form opens.
- Pick a template chip that fits your business, or click Start blank.
- The form builder opens. See Build a form.
Read a form row¶
- A badge From
shows where it came from. - Live in chat means a chatbot is using it.
- Public link means anyone with the link can open it.
- Click the row to open it in the builder.
Use the row menu¶
- Open the ⋮ menu on a row.
- Choose Responses to read answers. See Read form responses.
- Choose Share link and QR. See Preview and share a form.
- Choose Publish to WhatsApp, or Republish to WhatsApp after changes.
