📝 Overview

In Yoom Forms, you can add specific parameters to the form’s shareable URL to pre-fill responses before sharing the form. By pre-filling the answers, you can reduce the effort required from respondents and minimize the chances of errors.

This article will guide you through the process of configuring this setup.

🛠️ How to Set Up

1. Create a Yoom Form and Access the Shareable URL

First, create a Yoom form and access its shareable URL.

☝️ Note:

For basic instructions on creating a form, refer to the guide here.

2. Add Parameters to the Shareable Form URL

Next, add parameters to the form URL to pre-fill answers for the fields you want. The format for adding parameters is:

?[form item name]=[value]

Here’s how the data types and their corresponding formats look:

Text:
?name=John
Long Text:
?message=Hello, thank you for your support.\nBest regards. (The \n adds a line break)
Number:
?age=30
Date:
?date=2024-01-01
Dropdown:
?dropdown=Option1 (Pre-select the desired option)

For multiple values, such as checkboxes or lists:

Checkbox:
?checkbox=Option1,Option2
List:
?list=Item1,Item2
