Custom Form URL

Bruce Case

Hi Community. I am trying to use custom details at the end of my Form link, but not seeing it populated in my Form.

Simply, after my Form URL, I am adding: ?Name=Bruce

When the Form is displayed, the Name field is still blank.

What am I missing?

Found the issue.

Within my Sheet, the Column is "Name"

Within my Form, I was using a Label of "Your Name"

Within the URL, I was thinking I should use the information from the Sheet, but instead, if that is changed in the Form, that it is that value that must be used.

It is working now.

Hello Bruce,

The name of the field on the form must exactly correspond with the syntax in the url. Also case sensitve:

Example:

https://app.smartsheet.com/b/form/903bd729c26943f2b58e86586eaa6115?Name=Bruce

will do the trick

https://app.smartsheet.com/b/form/903bd729c26943f2b58e86586eaa6115?name=Bruce

will not do the trick

Grtz, Maaik

Thanks. I thought of that and confirmed. In fact, I even copied, pasted just to be sure
