How to Pre-fill Forms with Paperform

Let us chat about Paperform's pre-filling feature.

Pre-filling is used to fill in one or more answers on behalf of respondents when they first load the form. That is, it fills those answers in before they possibly could, or pre-fills them.

For example, you might want to save the respondent some time when moving through a multi-form flow, where you would pre-fill some similar or duplicated fields on the next form by using answers from the first form. Or perhaps you have data from a CRM and want to provide a more personalized touch by pre-filling the information you already know about your user.

In this Pre-fill overview we will cover:

What is pre-filling

The methods by which you can pre-fill a form
Pre-filling forms that are embedded
Pre-filling from form to form
Pre-filling from a secondary platform/software/tool
