    When I send my form to someone do they have to create an account? I just created my first form and I want to send it to clients. When I share the link though it makes them create an account instead of going to the form. How can I avoid this?

    Hi Alex,

    Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. When you assign the form via QuickShare and Assign Form, the user must create or log in to their Jotform account. What you can do is share the form via Email. Let me show you how:

    1. In Form Builder, in the orange navigation bar at the top of the screen, click on Publish.
    2. Click on Email on the left side of the screen.
    3. Click on Share on Email.How to share the form via Email so user will not be asked to log in? Image 1 Screenshot 30
    4. On the To field, enter the user's email address.
    5. Finally, click on Save button below.How to share the form via Email so user will not be asked to log in? Image 2 Screenshot 41

    Note that you must keep your form on Public access setting to make sure that they won't be asked to log in. You can also check this guide on how to share the form via email.

    Give it a try and let us know if you need any help.

    Is there a way to do that for text though? I would like to send the form via text so they don't have to login.

    Hi Alex,

    Unfortunately, we don't have a feature where you can share the form through text. However, you can just copy the link of the form and send it using your own SMS provider.  Let me show you:

    1. Go to Form Builder
    2. Click the PUBLISH button on the top menu
    3. In the Quick Share section, click Settings with Gear icon right next to Link to Share.
    4. If it is public, you can hit the Copy Link button and share the link with your client.
