- Enter a Confirmation Message to display when the lead submits the form (i.e., Thank you or Thanks for contacting us!).
- To redirect leads to a different URL after submitting the form, enter a URL in the textbox. If the field is left empty, leads will remain on the board after submitting the form.
- To automatically fill in the form in case the lead is recognized by the system, enable Auto fill.
- To save the settings, click Save Form.
Form types
- Classic form: an OOTB form that you can set which fields are required, optional or invisible; but you cannot add fields to the form. You can also enter text for the Submit Form Button Label, i.e., Submit or Send. Additionally, you can enable Auto fill so that the form is automatically filled in case the lead is recognized by the system.
- External form: a form created and formatted in an external system.

By default, Folloze auto-fills the following fields on the form: first name, last name, email, company, phone, country and state. The remaining fields are controlled by Marketo.
- Eloqua form: a form created in Eloqua and added to the Folloze instance. The form appears in the list of form options marked with an ‘Eloqua’ label.
