Getting Started
Jotform is an online form builder that allows users to create custom forms for data collection, surveys, and payment processing. To get started, sign up for a free account on Jotform’s website and explore its drag-and-drop form builder. You can choose from a variety of pre-made templates or start from scratch to create forms tailored to your needs.
Once the form is built, configure settings for notifications, conditional logic, or integrations with third-party apps like Google Sheets, PayPal, or Slack. Publish the form by sharing a direct link, embedding it on your website, or sending it via email. Responses are collected in Jotform’s dashboard, where you can view submissions, export data, or automate workflows.
