Forms
Forms within the marketing automation system serve as a specialized tool for gathering user information, typically exchanged for access to downloads, event registrations, or email newsletters. They facilitate the collection of contact data and enable the augmentation of user profiles with supplementary information.

Step2- Click on new tab:

Note: When setting up the "Successful Submit Action" for a form, you have three options: "Remain at Form," "Redirect URL," and "Display Message."
-
Remain at Form: Keeps users on the current form after successful submission, allowing further interaction.
-
Redirect URL: Redirects users to a specified URL post-submission. It's mandatory to provide a destination URL i.e. "Redirect URL/Message".

Display Message: Shows a custom message on the form after submission. Even with this option, you still need to choose a "Redirect URL/Message" for users to navigate after viewing the message.

Rebuild cache
Use this feature when making changes to a form, like adding a new field. It generates updated HTML for the form, ensuring that the configuration changes are accurately reflected in the HTML output. This maintains consistency between form modifications and their representation in HTML.(This is for automatic script only. Other wise if you have chosen to insert the manual HTML then the code has to be inserted again.)

Form HTML
It's really simple to place a form inside a Camp landing page: just use the merge option in the editor to select the form! But if you want to place the form in your website, use one of the other two options below. The code under these options will have to be copied and pasted inside the code of your webpage.
- Automatic
- Manual Copy
- Automatic-With this option, Camp will automatically generate the form where you include this code and thus it will always be the most up-to-date version.
- Manual Copy-This option requires you to manually update the HTML if you make any changes to the form from within Camp. But, it gives you flexibility to edit the code and/or not rely on Camp to serve up the form.
Export form results
In the results page, users have the option to export the form data with the following available formats:
- Export to CSV
- Export to Excel
- Export to HTML
Published and unpublished form
- Published Form: This status signifies that the form has been deployed on websites or landing pages to collect user information. Published forms are identified by a green symbol.
- Unpublished Form: This status denotes that the form is either under development and not yet deployed, or it has exceeded its designated usage duration. Unpublished forms are identified by a red signal.
