In Rewst, every automation starts with a single click. Forms are powerful tools used to collect the information your workflows need to start. They streamline the data collection process by gathering key details from users such as names, dates, or options. Forms can be manually created, or added as part of Crate unpacking.
Rewst's form functionality is designed to empower users with the tools to build interactive, responsive, and customizable forms.
Forms collect data in one simple step, reducing manual data entry and saving you time. They can also function as triggers in Rewst when building workflows, allowing for seamless transitions and increased efficiency. Use a form submission in your workflow if user input is required for the automation to run. You wouldn't use a form, for example, if the all the information needed for the automation to run could be retrieved via webhook trigger.
Expand the reach of your forms by embedding them into various web pages, providing increased accessibility to users. Tailor forms to specific scenarios through cloning and modification, ensuring the right fit for every situation.
Access all forms, be they manually created by you or obtained as part of unpacking Crates, by navigating to Automations > Assets > Forms in the left side menu.
An example of what your forms page might look like
You can export a form to share with other Rewst customers, or create your own hard copies of form backups. To export a form as a JSON bundle, click ⋮ > Export next to your relevant form in the total form list.
To import a form bundled as a JSON file, click
in the top right navigation bar of the forms page. Then, drag and drop your file into the upload dialog that appears.
