Create a form

Inqform is an easy-to-use tool for building dynamic online forms and collecting data. This article will guide you through the basics.

To begin, you’ll need a free Inqform account. If you don’t have one yet, you can create one here. Once you have an account, you can log in to your Inqform workspace.

In your Inqform workspace, locate the + New form button at the top right. Click this button to open a popup where you can name your form and select a layout. You can change the layout at any time later.

Forms can have different layouts:

• Classic: All questions are displayed on a single page.
• Focused: A conversational style where each question is presented one page at a time.

After naming your form and selecting a layout, click the Create button. You will be redirected to the form builder page.

Form Builder

In the form builder, you’ll see your new form with a default Multiple Choice question. You can edit or remove this question as needed. Remember, your form needs at least one question.

To add more questions, click the Add content + button. You will see a list of question types you can add to your form. You can also customize the welcome screens, statements, and thank you screen.

Lets create a simple “contact us” form.

1. Add Name:

   • Click the Add content + button and select Name from the list of question types.
   • Edit the question text and add a description from the preview area or the properties panel on the right.
   • Toggle the Required switch if you want to make the question mandatory.

2. Add Email:

   • Click the Add content + button and select Email from the list of question types.
   • Edit the question text and description.

3. Add an Image to the Email Question:

   • Click the Image/Video Add button to upload an image and position it as desired.

You can sort the questions by dragging and dropping them in the left panel. If you are in Classic layout mode, you can do the same in the center section.

To duplicate or delete a question, click the dotted icon or the > button next to the question in the left panel.

Lets finish the form by editing the Ending screen.

• Click on the Ending screen at the end of the content list.
• Customize the ending message and description to your liking.
• Enable buttons to share on social media if desired from the properties panel.

You can even add multiple ending screens and use logic to show different screens based on the user’s answers.

Saving

Forms are Autosaved whenever you make any changes. When you’ve finished building a form, click Publish to make it ‘live’, so you can share it online.

If you want to edit your form after publishing it, you can do so at any time. Your changes will be saved automatically, but they won’t appear in your live form until you click Publish again.
