Create your first form and start collecting responses in just a few minutes.

> **Before you begin**
>
> You have an OrbitForms account. [Sign up for free](https://app.useorbitcrm.ai/signup) if you don't.

**1. Create a new form**

After signing in, navigate to the **Forms** page from the sidebar. Click the **Create Form** button to get started.

```
Forms → Create Form
```

You'll be prompted to choose between a **Standard** form (all fields visible at once) or a **Flow** form (one question at a time). The form type is set at creation, so pick the experience that fits your audience.

**2. Add your fields**

In the form editor, add questions from the field panel. OrbitForms supports many field types:

* Short Text & Long Text
* Email
* Phone
* Number
* Date & Time
* Dropdown, Multiple Choice & Multi-select
* Rating & Linear Scale
* Website URL
* File Upload

Each field can be customized with labels, placeholders, help text, and validation rules. Toggle the **Required** switch to make a field mandatory.

**3. Customize your form**

Use the **Design** tab in the editor to customize your form's appearance:

* **Colors** — Change button, background, and text colors to match your brand
* **Logo** — Upload your company logo
* **Background** — Solid color, gradient, or transparent
* **Font** — Choose from a selection of Google Fonts

The **After Submission** tab controls what users see after submitting — a customizable thank-you page or a redirect to another URL.

**4. Publish and share**

When you're happy with your form, click **Publish** in the top right corner. Your form will be live at its unique URL:

```
https://orbitforms.ai/r/{team-id}/your-form-slug
```

You can also embed the form on your website using the embed code from the **Share** tab.

**5. You're all set!**

Congratulations! Your form is now live. As users submit responses, you'll see them in the **Submissions** tab on your form's dashboard.
