This series of help articles will lead you step-by step through the process of creating a brand new webform.

There are two ways to create a new form:

  • Click the Plus Icon to create a form from scratch.

  • Use a template. To use a template, take a look at this article.

To create a form from scratch, simply click the Plus icon.

You'll then see a series of bus stops that will lead you through the creation process. This series of help articles will lead you through a quick overview of each section.

Step 1: About

Here you name your form.

From this screen, you can also add:

  • a description to help explain to colleagues (or yourself) what the form is for

  • tags to quickly find a form or sort forms into virtual categories

  • archive the form if it's no longer needed

  • add the form to your templates folder to be cloned by other users

Archiving a form will hide it from the form list unless the "Show archived forms" checkbox is ticked.

Please note: Archiving a form may not stop students from submitting it if they have the link, for example in an older email.

The title of the form also shows it's status on every page.
