Pre-fill fields
Set a default value to pre-populate form fields, based on previous inputs, URL parameters or even information from 3rd party integrations.
How to pre-fill a field
You can pre-fill Fillout questions with either static or dynamic data from integrations like Airtable and Notion. Click a field followed by the settings icon. In the right-hand panel, click + to look for a default value.
Pre-fill basics
You can set a fixed value as the pre-fill by just typing some text under Default value.
If you click the blue + icon, you can pre-fill the field with:
- URL Parameters
- User information from a Login step
- Answer to another Fillout field
