Passing information between typeforms

HI, Mariana: this is so helpful (especially the screen casts). Thank you! 

One followup question: I was able to bring the name from Form #1 into Form #2. Can I bring the name from Form #2 to Form #3, given that there is no question in Form #2 that provided the answer to the name? I cannot say name = (answer to slide #1, What is your name) as that only in Form #1. 

Thanks so much for attention and help! 

How would I do that? :) I am brand new to the platform. 

Form one to form two, in URL, (hidden_filed) = question in form that has the answer. 

Form two to Form three… what do I put in the URL? I tried (hidden_field) = (hidden_field), but that didn’t work. 

THANKS!

Thank you, Liz. It doesn’t seem to work, though… the hidden form variable isn’t actually pulling in any information from the other forms and it coming in blank. I DMed you more details, including the form.

thanks for your help!!

Ah, gotchya. Forgive the faux pas :) I submitted a ticket. Thanks!

how did you solve it?

Hi @dtine are you referring to the hidden fields option or the direct to URL option? If this is the case I added some screenshots to walk you through where to find them . Hope this helps.

Create a Redirect Ending by pressing the + button and click on ‘Redirect to URL’

You should get this screen. now you can paste your other hidden fields url here.

Now we can create a hidden fields url from the form you want to add data. Below I have opened my tutoring feedback form where I want to add the students name, Student ID, and the tutor they worked with so I can Easily find the student in the new form using their ID. Let us create that link to gather that information from the tutoring appointment form that we have above. 

First step is to click the Logic button and then click on Personalize with data

Now we can go ahead a click on Hidden fields and you should get this screen. Notice how I added the information that I want to collect from my other form to add to this form. Once you are done yo can click save.

now we can add those hidden fields anywhere in our form or just leave them and we will still be able to see that data in the results page. in my case I want to use these hidden fields within my typeform to show the name and tutor from my last form in one of my questions. to add this information while typing your question use the @ symbol and your hidden fields should show up.

Once you are done setting up your form we can get the link to add to our other form. to do this click on publish and the link should come up or click on share after publishing to copy the link.

Or click on share

Once we have that link we can paste it in our other Typeform. Notice how our link has ‘XXXXX’ after our hidden fields. We will need to replace those with the information we want to send from this form.

You can do this by deleting those Xs and replacing them with information from our current form by typing the @ symbol and your answers from the previous questions should come up.

Lastly we can change the url label and it should turn into a button when people reach that question while filling it out.

Awesome we just finished! 😎  now whenever someone fills out this form they will be redirected to the new form and their information will be transferred. Hope this helps.
