Hi everyone! How can I create a form (like in jotforms) so people leave their email and then they automatically receive a letter with the link to my google drive (via their email.)
Is it possible using typeform? Please help!

Hi @maria8 I made a video below which should hopefully help you build this form! Let me know if you have any other questions. :)

Hi @maria8 Welcome to the community! You could set up respondent notifications on your form, which would send an email to your respondents after they submit the form. In the email notification itself, you can add your Google Drive link.

Would that work for you? :grin:

@Liz Thank you so much for your answer! I think it might work. Also is there any tutorial how to create a form? (very simple one, where people can just leave their names and emails) and then I’ll set up respondent notifications on that form.

Hi @Liz! I was creating a typeform with notifications just as you kindly recorded in the video. But then I got a message “This typeform uses features that aren't in your plan (Respondent email notifications) To publish it, you can upgrade your plan or remove this feature” So it is not for free, right? And what about 2-week trial period? I just want to make sure that it works exactly as I want before purchasing any plans.

Thanks @john.desborough ! @maria8 the respondent notification feature is a paid feature, so if you are on our free plan, it won’t allow you to send notifications. :\
