When to Use

  • Collecting user feedback or survey responses
  • Registration information
  • Work order or requirement submission
  • External data entry

Creating a Form View

  1. Click + New View in the view switcher.
  2. Select the Form view type.
  3. Enter a view name and create it.

Sharing the Form

Form sharing settings

Form view supports generating public share links so external users can access and submit data.

Creating a Share

  1. Click the Share button in the form view.
  2. Configure share options:
    • Allow anonymous submission: Submit without logging in
    • Require CAPTCHA: Require CAPTCHA verification before submission
    • Expiration date: Set the validity period of the share link
    • Maximum submissions: Limit the total number of submissions
    • Allowed fields: Select the fields displayed in the shared form
  3. Click Create Share, and the system will generate a share link.

Managing Shares

  • Multiple share links can be created for one form view.
  • Share links can be enabled, disabled, or deleted at any time.
  • Submission count and status can be viewed for each share link.

Submitting Data

  • External users open the form through the share link.
  • After filling out and submitting, data is automatically written to the current table.
  • A success message is displayed after submission.

Viewing Submissions

  • Submitted data appears as new records in the table.
  • Records can be viewed, filtered, and edited in table view or other views.

Security Suggestion

For sensitive data collection, it is recommended to enable CAPTCHA and set a submission limit, while avoiding the exposure of sensitive fields in the shared form.
