How to switch to FormDoc

Create a free access key with the email address that should receive submissions.
Change your form’s action and add the key as a hidden field. Your existing fields keep working: each name becomes a label in your email.

HTML

<form action="https://api.formdoc.dev/v1/submit" method="POST">
  <input type="hidden" name="access_key" value="YOUR_ACCESS_KEY">
  <!-- your existing fields stay as they are -->
  <input type="checkbox" name="botcheck" style="display:none" tabindex="-1" autocomplete="off">
  <button type="submit">Send</button>
</form>

Send a test submission and check your inbox. See the setup guide for redirects, JavaScript and every option.
