Prefilling fields for a responder<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\nFinding the pre-fill feature in Google Forms is easy. Reach out to the three-dot menu in the right-hand corner of the screen, and click on Get pre-filled link.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"image](\"https:\/\/cdn.marketing123.123formbuilder.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/03\/pre-filled-link.png\")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\nThis will open a new tab for you, where you can pre-fill which field you want. After you finish, go to the bottom of the form and click on the Get link<\/strong> button. You can either preview how the form would look like for a responder or share it with them through chat or email.<\/p>\n\n\n\nIf you have several forms that need to be completed one after the other and share identical fields that need to be completed<\/strong>, we recommend you skip Google Forms, unless you want to spend countless hours doing this task.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\nStreamline Your Workflow with Custom Redirect URLs in 123FormBuilder<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Through its powerful features, 123FormBuilder<\/a> can help you complete this task in a faster fashion. This is where custom redirect URLs come in. The redirect URL can be specified in the Thank You Page section of your form within your form builder<\/a> account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/cdn.marketing123.123formbuilder.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/03\/thank-you-page.png\")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\nCreate your Custom URL<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\nBuild the custom URL following the structure below, where the bold parts remain unchanged for the link to work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/cdn.marketing123.123formbuilder.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/03\/custom-url.png\")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\nNow, you will need to add your own information from your forms. Let\u2019s take an example. We have Form A and Form B. We want to have some fields from Form B prefilled based on the answers to a field from Form A.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/cdn.marketing123.123formbuilder.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/03\/image-337.png\")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\nStep 1<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nReplace 222222 (where it says form-222222) with the ID of the form B. You can retrieve them from the Publish \u2192 Link section of your form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/cdn.marketing123.123formbuilder.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/03\/my-form.png\")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\nStep 2<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nNext step would be to find out the field IDs. You need to know the field ID from form A from where you want to have the prefilled data taken from and the field ID from form B, where you want to prefill the data taken from form A.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In the above URL, replace 2323232 (value for control<\/em><\/strong>) with the ID of the field from which the value will be passed from.<\/em> (field from form A)<\/p>\n\n\n\nReplace 1212121 with the ID of the field to which the value will be sent from the first form.<\/em> (field from form B)<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/cdn.marketing123.123formbuilder.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/03\/image-338.png\")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\nTo get the field IDs, you need to select the field in their respective forms and go to the bottom of the right-side panels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/cdn.marketing123.123formbuilder.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/03\/field-id.png\")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\nTo keep adding multiple fields just continue with the &control=…<\/strong> sequence.<\/p>\n\n\n\nStep 3<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nNow you can copy your specific URL to the redirect link in the Thank You page, publish and share your form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/cdn.marketing123.123formbuilder.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/03\/redirect-to-url.png\")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\nExplore 123FormBuilder as a superior alternative to Google Forms, providing enhanced form creation functionalities.
