Forms

With Forms, you can create and manage online forms to collect information from website users. When you create forms, you use the Form Designer to create distinct steps and sections, insert instructional text and images, and insert fields to collect data from website users. The available field types include text fields, text areas, radio button lists, checkboxes, checkbox lists, dropdown lists, and a special email field that sends confirmation email messages to users who enter email addresses. These fields on the Common form type do not map to a database outside the program.

After you design a form, you use a Form Display part to create a landing page on the website. In Parts, you create a Form Display part and select the forms to include on the web page. On the website, users view the available forms, and they can click links to start, resume, delete, or print the forms.

After you place forms on your website, you manage them in Forms. With the Form Designer, you can adjust the forms as necessary, and on the Data tab, you can view summary information about the forms and manage the data that website users submit. After users start form, you can use the Data tab to create PDFs with their data and delete form entries.
