Updated over a month ago

There are several ways to share the data collected by your forms in Formaloo.

Whether you need to collaborate with your team, share insights with external users, or automate workflows, you can find the method that fits your needs. Here’s an overview of the various options:

Share with guest users

If you want to share a form’s data with people who don’t need to edit it, guest access is the way to go.

By allowing guest users to log in to Formaloo, they can view the form and its data, but they won’t have permission to make any changes.

This is ideal for sharing reports or insights with stakeholders who only need to observe the data.

It’s important to note that guest users can’t be granted editing access, ensuring your data remains protected.

📝 Additional insights:

Share data with View-Only access
Use guest access to allow external users to view form data without editing permissions. Ideal for sharing reports or insights with stakeholders who only need to observe, ensuring your data remains secure and unchanged.

Share with team members

Collaboration is made easy with Formaloo’s team-sharing features. You can invite your workspace members and give them access to your form’s data.

Whether it’s for project management, customer data review, or collaborative work, you have control over who can view or edit the form.

Granting edit access means your teammates can make updates and changes, ensuring that your team stays in sync with the most up-to-date information.

Share with external users

Need to share your form’s data with people outside your team who don’t have Formaloo accounts?

You can easily do this by creating a public app. Once your app is live, you can share its public link with your audience, allowing them to view the form data.

This is great for situations like sharing survey results, public records, or any form data that doesn’t require login access.

Share with external users who have signed up for your app

For a more controlled and secure experience, you can create a membership portal where external users can sign up and log in.

This option is perfect for offering restricted access to specific pages of your app or form data.

For example, if you’re running a client or student portal, this setup allows users to access only the data that’s relevant to them once they’ve logged in.

Keep your team informed in real time by setting up email notifications for your forms. Whenever a form is submitted, an email can be sent to specific team members to ensure timely action.

You can also customize these emails to include additional details about the submission, giving your team the right context to respond efficiently.

For example, if a form submission relates to customer support, you can include details about the issue and next steps, helping your team stay on top of urgent requests.

Use the form's webhook

Webhooks are a powerful way to automate processes by allowing your form to trigger actions in other apps when specific events occur.

For example, when someone submits a form, a webhook can automatically notify another app (like Trello or an email service) so your team can follow up immediately.

With webhooks, you can create automated workflows that respond to real-time data changes without the need for manual updates.

This is useful for creating custom dashboards, integrating data into other systems, or building entirely new apps based on your form data.

For example, you can set up a Zapier workflow that sends form submissions directly to a project management tool or automatically creates a task when a new form is submitted.
