Basic settings

Under the Settings menu of your form you will find some basic settings. Let's go through them:

Form name

The Form name lets you give a custom name to a form handler. This name is only visible to you and helps you remember what the form is for. You can change the name anytime without affecting anything.

Email field name

This setting is used by both the spam filter and the auto-respond feature, and therefore it is important to make sure that it's set correctly.

You need to provide the name of the input field in your HTML form that is used to collect the users' email address.

For example, in the following form, the field name is email:

<form id="contact" action="https://api.form-data.com/f/xxx" method="post">
  <input placeholder="Your name" type="text" name="name" required >
  <input placeholder="Your Email Address" type="email" name="email" required>
  <textarea placeholder="Type your Message Here...." name="message" required></textarea>
  <button name="submit" type="submit">Submit</button>
</form>
