Share Your Form

Once your form is live, share it with respondents using a direct link or a downloadable QR code.

Go live

Before you can share your form, it needs to be live. In the form builder, flip the status switch in the top-right corner from Draft to Live. Going live publishes your current working copy - that frozen version is what respondents see, even as you keep editing. When you have edits the live form doesn't show yet, a Publish changes button appears next to the switch to push them live.

Why can't I go live?

If the switch is disabled and the status shows a red issue count, your form has problems that would break it for respondents. Click the issue count to see the list - clicking an issue jumps to the step that needs fixing. The checks are:

• A reachable ending. Every form needs at least one End Screen or Redirect that respondents can actually reach. Click + Add node (or drag a connection from your final step into empty space) and pick End, then connect it to your flow.
• No dead ends. Every step must lead somewhere - a step with no outgoing connection (that isn't an ending) blocks publishing.
• Complete content. Steps that need configuration (for example a Redirect's destination URL) must have it filled in.

Fix the listed issues and the switch enables itself - no need to re-check anything manually.

Share link

Click Share in the top toolbar of the form builder to open the quick share popover. Your form has a share link in the format:

clipform.io/abc123

Click the copy button to copy the share link to your clipboard, then paste it anywhere - emails, messages, social media, or landing pages. The share ID (the characters after clipform.io/) is also your Form ID when embedding the form on your website.

QR code

The quick share popover includes a QR code that encodes your form's link. Click Download to save the QR code image to your device - useful for print materials, event badges, product packaging, posters, and any situation where respondents need to reach your form from a physical space.

The Share tab

Click More sharing options in the popover, or the Share tab next to Build and Results, to open the full Share page. It has its own left-hand menu:

• Share link - the same share link and QR code as the quick popover, with a bigger preview, a button to copy the QR code image directly, and a ready-made email HTML block (see Share by email below).
• Embed on a site - see below.

Embed on your website

If you want the form to appear directly on a webpage rather than linking to it, open Embed on a site in the Share tab's left-hand menu. Copy the snippet shown there and paste it into your site's HTML - see the Embed guide for the full instructions.

Share by email

Scroll down on the Share link page in the Share tab for a ready-made HTML block you can paste into a newsletter or CRM campaign. It wraps your form's poster image in a link, so the image itself is clickable and takes readers straight into the form - a plain text link is included underneath as a fallback for inboxes that block images. Copy the block and paste it directly into your email editor's HTML/source view.
