Settings

If you want to add a person to receive notifications for each form's submission, connect with me on that. It may appear that this is the place it is done, the Settings section.  

No one wants to sort through an email inbox with dozens or hundreds of submissions, and then input them somewhere else for use. Hence the reason I don't use this notifications setting. Read on for how I handle this for and with you.

The best way to setup notifications is by me configuring a custom action that happens when forms are submitted. I do this for you by connecting your form to a tool called Relay.app, because I can fully customize the notification for each person who receives it and/or where the submissions go. 

But you can also do this within the settings for an individual form, within the "After submit" settings. See that article in the Help Center to learn how to do that. 

Also please do not change any of the other settings listed below, I'm listing them simply to explain what they do: 

Webhook

This is how I use Relay to submit your form. It sends the data securely via the Internet into Relay, where I can then configure where to send your data — to you via email, to others, into a Google Sheet, into Airtable, or SmartSuite, or Notion, or anywhere else. 

Google Sheets

Allows you to create new rows in a Google Sheets spreadsheet with form submissions. No need to configure anything here because I use Relay to populate a Google Sheet securely. 

HubSpot

Allows you to create new records in the HubSpot CRM with form submissions. No need to configure anything here. 

Platform alerts

No need to configure anything here. 

Payments 

No need to configure anything here.
