Instructions and Help about typeform

Once you have your type form all created with the questions that you want and with the design that you want it's time to send it out and get the data from people now this is pretty easy to do in type form just come over here to share and when you click on that you're going to have a lot of different options for sharing I'll talk about each of these in different sections but right now I want to talk about share your type form with the URL specifically how to do this with email now this is the web address for the type form that I've created and you give that to anybody in any way it'll open it up for them you have options for doing it with Facebook with Twitter with Google+ with LinkedIn through buffer I'm going to show you email right here at the end all you need to do is click on this and it'll open up your default email browser and what it does is it opens up a new email in your email client and you have the from and it puts in this subject could you take a moment to fill in this type form and it's got this text and this is my default signature right here it'll put in whatever you have and there's the link and so this is adequate obviously you have to fill in the two information whoever you're going to send it to and you may want to change this subject and the text and the email but these are the bare essentials now one problem is you would probably like to have the actual survey that I form in the email itself because that's one less step for people to do unfortunately it's not possible to embed the form in the email but there is sort of a hack workaround that you can do and here's what I'm going to do I'm going to come here and I'm going to copy this URL it's going to come through here and copy all that and just select the entire URL and I copy that I'm going to delete the rest of this and then what I'm going to do is I'm going to bring in a screen capture an image of the welcome page of the type form that I created so here it is what I did is I simply took a screenshot and I did a couple of things first I cropped it I brought it in a little bit because I have a big screen and normally there's a lot of blank space and then second I dramatically reduced the size of the image so instead of being twenty five hundred and sixty pixels wide it's 800 pixels wide at the moment but I have this image and I'd simply drag that in here and now that's an up my email and I can set that as a link.
