Overview
Set up your account to leverage the various FastField integration options. Go to the Account section of the Portal to configure your form submission destination types, form submission format types, and other related settings. You can also explore the multitude of third-party integrations through Zapier.
Form Submission Destination Types
Setting | Description |
|---|---|
FastField Vault (Default) | This is the default destination. When chosen, all forms will be stored in the FastField data vault.
|
FTP | Use this destination to send form submissions to your FTP server. |
SFTP | Use this destination to send form submissions to your SFTP server.
|
Use this destination to have form submissions sent to one or more of your email addresses. To send to multiple email addresses, separate each with commas (,). |
Note
When using the Email destination, you can set merge tags for form fields into the email subject and body when you configure form integration. The following meta-data fields are currently supported: FormName, UpdatedAt (created date), UserName (created by), SubmissionId (unique submission id). Any top-level (non-subform) fields can also be merged into the subject and body. Learn more about our supported field types.
For example, in the email subject field, use the following string to have the form name, submission date, submitter, and a custom field on your form (employeeid) merged into the email subject (notice bracket syntax):
[FormName] was submitted on [UpdatedAt] by [UserName] (Employee ID: [employeeid])
| |
HttpPost | Also known as Direct Post, you can use this destination to have form submissions sent to your private HTTP Restful service. See the Form Submissions to Custom Endpoint section for details. |

Form Submission Format Types

Open the Configuration screen for that form
Select Advanced.
Go to the Integration tab.
Set any integration options as needed, then Save.
