Creating a new form in Comfyform is a straightforward process that allows you to begin managing form submissions quickly and effectively. By creating a form in your dashboard, you’ll obtain a unique endpoint URL to which you can send form submissions from your website. Here’s how to get started:

​
Step 1: Access Your Dashboard

First, log in to your Comfyform dashboard using your credentials. This will be your hub for managing all Comfyform activities.

​
Step 2: Create the Form

In the dashboard, locate and click on the “Create new form” button – you’ll typically find this in the sidebar. A modal will appear where you can name your form.
Effective form naming tipChoose a title that specifies the form’s purpose, like “Contact Form” or “Event Registration.” For client forms, include their name for clarity, such as “AcmeCorp - Feedback Form.”

Don’t forget to add the honeypot field to your HTML code so the security really works. Learn more about honeypot security or other spam protection options.

Step 3: Acquire Your Endpoint URL and Code Examples

Upon creating your form, Comfyform provides a versatile suite of code snippets for easy integration. Choose from four ready-to-use code snippets tailored to different needs>
  • Basic HTML form submission
  • HTML form submission with file upload capability
  • JavaScript fetch request
  • JavaScript fetch request with file upload support
These examples are equipped with the endpoint URL configured to handle submissions from your site. You have the flexibility to either directly use the provided code snippets or extract the endpoint URL to be used with your custom form frontend setup.

Step 4: Configure Your Form (optional)

Even though Comfyform is a backend service, we provide several configurations to improve your form’s functionality. Some of them are available only in the dashboard, you can configure others both in dashboard and in your code (which will has a priority over the dashboard config).
  • Success and Error Redirects: Specify URLs to redirect users to a custom thank-you page or error page after submission. If you don’t specify any, we’ll show the user an ok page or error page with a link back to your website.
  • Email or SMS Notifications: Set up automatic email or SMS alerts to receive notifications as soon as a new form submission is received.
  • Webhooks (coming soon): Implement webhooks to send form submission data to your services or backend for additional processing, monitoring, or analytics.
  • Integrations: Integrate your form with third-party services like Google Sheets, HubSpot, and many more so you can seamlessly store, receive, or process data there.
