# Embed Fillout forms on Softr
> Enhance your Softr applications by embedding Fillout forms connected to Airtable, that can update or create records, and access logged in users
## What is Softr?
[Softr](https://www.softr.io/) lets you build powerful applications that connect to databases like Airtable, but sometimes you could use the help of more powerful form applications that allow things like:
* [Filtering linked record pickers](https://www.fillout.com/help/select-linked-airtable-records#enable-dropdown-filtering) to only show relevant results
* Creating multiple pages on the forms
* [Referencing previous answers](/answer-piping)
* [Hiding elements conditionally](https://www.fillout.com/help/conditional-hiding#hide-based-on-a-condition) based on previous answers or the user data
## Custom code block
You’ll need a paid Softr account to use this method.
Start by clicking `Publish` in the upper right corner of the Fillout form editor. A popup will show up where you can pick an **embed style**.
If you've already published your form, click `Share` in the top middle or top right. Adjust your embed style settings to fit your use case. Then, `Get the code`
In Softr, Add a **Custom code block**.

You'll see a `Embed your custom code here` text. Paste the code there.
That’s it! Publish your Softr application and try your Fillout form! At this point, you should be ready to try your embed! See below for more advanced instructions.
## Advanced: Filter records
Watch Dan Leeman from [Automation Helpers](https://www.automationhelpers.com/templates/build-filtered-forms-with-softr-and-fillout) build a filtered Fillout form, embedded in Softr.
## Update forms
You can embed complex forms that [allow logged in users to update their profile](/airtable-update-form). For example, a form that opens in a pop-up, to allow a logged in student to update their courses.
The styling of your embed can be adjusted to match your brand in Softr.
## Access logged-in Softr users in Fillout
For custom code blocks, use the following code snippet:
```js theme={null}
```
Right below the line to `Paste your embed code here`, you can paste in the embed code you copied from **Fillout**’s **Share** page for your form. That’s it!
Make sure to remove the first line in the code block, when pasting in your embed snippet (we’ve moved it over to later in the snippet, above).
You may also prefer using a simple custom embedding method as opposed to our built-in embedding snippets. Here’s an example snippet for passing in the email, full name, and record ID of the user that is logged in, using a custom **iframe** embedding method (if you need more customization):
```js theme={null}
```
In this snippet, replace the **XXXXX** with the unique ending of your form URL that you can find in the **Share** tab of your form.
### Access the URL parameters/hidden fields in Fillout
You can access the **email**, **name**, and **ID URL parameters** much like any other URL parameters in **Fillout** if using the above methods to pass those in from Softr. Click [here](/url-parameters) for more information.
Your URL parameters aren’t required to be called **email**, **name**, nor **ID**. You can rename these in Fillout when registered, but the snippets above will need to be adjusted to replace the names with your desired names.
Fillout forms also automatically inherit URL parameters from your Softr pages. If you have any page that has a **recordID** URL parameter, as long as you have that registered as a URL parameter in your Fillout form, it will automatically get passed in!
