    My company has decided to go a different way with our forms. I need to export the questions and conditions to be able to share them with the new form developer. Please let me know how I can do this.

    Hi Jennifer,

    You can transfer the forms to their new form developer Jotform account or let them clone your form instead. Transferring or cloning the form will retain the form fields and the existing conditions. There's no other way to export the form along with conditions into a file to give them a reference.

    Transferring Your Forms and Data to Another Account is easy. When you transfer a form, all its submission data moves with it, and the receiving account becomes the new owner. There are a few things you need to be aware of:

    • If you're using a custom URL, it’ll automatically update from https://form.jotform.com/{yourUsername}/{your-custom-url-slug} to https://form.jotform.com/{New_Owner_Username}/{your-custom-url-slug}.
    • The transfer can’t be undone unless the new owner agrees to send the forms back.
    • It's not possible to transfer forms to or from HIPAA-friendly accounts.

    Now, let me show you how to do it:

    1. On your Workspace page, click on your Avatar/Profile Image in the top-right corner of the screen.

    2. In the window that opens, click on Settings.

    4. In the Transfer Form section, click on Transfer Form.

    6. In the window that opens, tick the box next to the name of the form you want to transfer.

    7. In the New Email Owner’s Email Address field, enter the email address of the account that you want the forms to be transferred to.

    8. Now, click on Transfer Form.

    1. While you are still on the Data page, click on the View Details button in the Pending Transfer section.

From that email, they can click on the View Transfer button, then click on Accept to complete the transfer. Check out the screencast below:

If they are, remove those connections first. You can let them clone your forms as well. Cloning an Existing Form From a URL is easy. Let me walk you through it:

    1. On your Workspace page, click on Create on the top-left side of the page.

    2. Select Form from the assets, and then click on Import Form.

    3. In the next window, click on From a Web Page

    4. Paste the form link into the Enter URL field and click on Create Form.
