Forms

Forms lets you collect answers and add them as records to a Boards table.

Build a form

Open a table and add a form view. Select the fields respondents should fill in, arrange their order, and set each field’s label, help text, and whether it is required. Removing a field from the form does not remove it from the table. Calculated fields and some other field types cannot be used as questions.

Set the form title, description, and thank-you message. Preview the form before publishing.

Publish and share a link

Choose Publish and share, then copy the public link or open the form. Anyone with the link can open and submit a published public form. The form closes if you unpublish it, set a closing date that has passed, or reach its submission limit.

Review submissions

Open Responses to see submissions you have permission to read. Each valid submission creates a record in the form’s source table. The new record follows the table’s access rules. Required fields and answers are checked before the form accepts a submission.

Submitting a public form needs an internet connection. If submission fails, check the connection and try again.

Spam protection

SRVO checks a hidden field and how quickly the form is submitted. It also limits repeated requests. These checks block some simple spam, but they cannot stop every automated submission. The public form does not ask respondents to complete a CAPTCHA.
