I’d like to suggest two enhancements to improve the functionality and professionalism of Typeform for organisations working at scale:
1. Centralised/Reusable Lists
Please consider adding a feature that allows us to create centralised lists (e.g. staff names, schools, departments) that can be referenced across multiple questions or forms.
This would:
-
Reduce manual duplication across questions/forms
-
Make list updates much easier and less error-prone
-
Improve consistency in data collection across projects
Even a simple interface for managing named lists or referencing them across forms would be very welcome.
2. Token-Based URL Access (Parameter Obfuscation)
We often use hidden fields in URLs to personalise or track responses (e.g. ?name=John&email=john@example.com), but this approach makes personal data visible in the browser bar.
We’d like the ability to use a single token/code in the URL, such as:
https://example.typeform.com/to/form123?code=7g3uhf9sjfj8u2k1
Typeform would then map that code to the full data set (e.g. name, email, role) behind the scenes, keeping sensitive values hidden from view.
This would:
-
Improve privacy and data protection
-
Present a more professional link to participants
-
Allow us to integrate with internal systems that generate secure access tokens
Even basic support for referencing a dataset keyed by a code would be extremely useful.
