5. Form Submission Settings​

After a contact submits a form, configure what happens:

Redirect Options:

  • Show a Thank You message (customizable)
  • Redirect to a URL (e.g., your website's thank you page or scheduling link)

Auto-Tagging: Automatically apply tags when a form is submitted:

  1. In the form settings, go to Submissions > On Submit Actions.
  2. Add Add Tag and select the appropriate tag (e.g., New Inquiry, Speech Therapy).

Automation Trigger: Forms can automatically trigger an automation sequence when submitted. Pair your intake form with your New Inquiry Follow-Up automation so the moment someone submits, they immediately receive a response. See Automation Sequences.

Creating/Updating Contacts: By default, form submissions create a new contact record (or update an existing one if the email/phone matches). Make sure your form includes at least one of: email or phone number — otherwise Clinivoz can't create a contact record.
