Make a form

Sign up or log in

Sign up here or log in here using your Google account, Microsoft account, or any email.If you sign up with an email, we send a 6-digit code to your inbox. Your account isn’t created until you enter it. Enter it in the same browser, then choose your name and password. The code lasts 15 minutes. The email comes from Zite Security (security@mail.fillout.com), with a subject like 123456 is your Fillout verification code. Signing up with Google or Microsoft, or from an emailed invite, skips the code. If the code doesn’t arrive:

• Check your spam or quarantine folder, and add security@mail.fillout.com to your allowed senders.
• Click send a new code once the timer runs out.
• If you see We couldn’t send your code, or the code still doesn’t arrive, sign up with Google or Microsoft instead, or contact us with your email address and roughly when you tried.

Signing in to Fillout with Google shows our company logo, Zite.

Create a new form

In the side menu, under Fillout, click My forms. Then, click New form in the upper right. To create the form in a Fillout workspace, open that workspace instead and click New form. To make a form that saves to a Zite database from the start, create it from the Zite workspace instead.

If you don’t see Fillout in the side menu, Fillout is turned off for your organization. An admin can turn it on.

Next, in Choose how to get started, pick one:

• Blank form - build with drag and drop in the Fillout editor
• Connect - start from a 3rd party app like Airtable, Notion, Google Sheets, HubSpot, and more
• Build with AI, in Zite - describe your form, and Zite builds it as an app instead of a Fillout form. See Zite Apps.

You can also click Import existing forms to import a form, convert a PDF, or start from a Template.If you’re unsure about which to use, choose Blank form. You can always connect to an integration later.

Typing a form idea in the prompt box on fillout.com also builds a Zite app. To start a Fillout form from fillout.com, click Start a blank form.

Customize the design

Click Theme to pick from one of the pre-made themes or customize your own.

Add questions or fields

Click or drag and drop your desired field types from the left-hand panel. Choose between over 50 different types.Then, enter the question or text. Click its settings icon to customize it in the right-hand panel.

Publish and share

Preview your form to test it. When you’re happy with it, click Publish.The first time you publish a form, Publish form asks where to keep its responses. Under Save responses to, choose:

• New Zite database (Recommended) - creates a database named after your form, with a table built from your questions
• Existing database - adds a new table to a database you can edit
• Only this form - responses stay in the form’s Results

Only this form is selected by default. Click Publish to put your form live, and the share options open. To cancel, press Esc or click away. Your form stays in My forms whichever you choose, and you can link a database later.This step doesn’t show for forms in a classic Fillout workspace or forms that already save to a database. New Zite database isn’t offered in our EU region, if you can’t create databases, or if you’ve reached your workspace limit.If your account’s email isn’t verified yet, you’ll see Verify your email to publish. Open the link in the verification email, or click Resend link to get a new one. Then, go back to the editor and your form will publish on its own.Share your form link anywhere or embed your form on any website. To view form submissions, head over to Results in the top menu.
