Use the Create Form action to create a new Form.

πŸ—’οΈ Note: The Create Form action requires an Advanced subscription.

You can also assign your new Form to a user and populate Form fields with the exceptions of Location and Sketch. Additionally, if you want to automatically populate a Table field you must contact Pro Services for assistance.

Create Forms with this action based on internal or external triggers.
​
Use an internal GoFormz trigger in instances where you need to collect data as a first step in a process. An example is if you want an approved Project Proposal form to trigger the creation of a Jobsite Inspection form.

An external trigger can collect data for a third-party source. Here, an example is if you want to create a new Form to collect data for each Work Order created in Salesforce.
