Once logged in to Cognito Forms, you can create unlimited forms for your organization. To create a new form:
-
Find the New Form section on the Home page or click the + New button in the bottom left corner of the sidebar.
-
Select one of the following options:
- Start from Scratch – Begin with a blank version of your new form.
- Choose a Template – Explore all the available templates from the categories on the left. When you find a template you like, select it to preview the design and field layout. From there, select the Use This Template button to save the template.
- Generate from AI – Use Cognito Forms AI to generate a custom online form in just seconds.
-
Next, you’ll be taken to the form builder. Give the form a title, which will appear at the top of your form. You can rename your form at any time, but note that its public URL will update accordingly.
-
Customize the form by adding as many fields as you like. Add a new field by clicking on one of the placeholders and choosing the field type from the left-hand pane. There’s no limit to the number of fields you can add!
-
Click the Save button in the top right corner to save your changes.
Once you save your form, it will appear in the sidebar alongside the rest of your forms.
