How to Share a Form

How to Share a Form

Once a form is created and published, you’ll want to make it available to respondents. There are three ways to share a form:

  1. Embed the form or survey on a webpage
  2. Share the link
  3. Attach it to a message in ACM Messenger

Embed the Form

You can embed a form directly into a web page, intranet, or portal.

  • Open the form you want to share.
  • Select Embed
  • Copy the provided Embed Code.
  • Paste the code into the HTML of your website or application.

✅ Best for: Organizations that want the form to appear seamlessly within their own branded platforms.

Share the Link

Every published form has a unique link you can distribute.

  • Open the form you want to share.
  • Select Embed
  • Copy the provided Form URL
  • Paste it into an ACM Alert email, chat, or document.
  • Respondents can click the link and complete the form directly.

✅ Best for: Quick sharing through email, chat, or internal communications.

Attach a Form to a Message in ACM Messenger

You can send forms directly to recipients through ACM Messenger, ensuring they’re delivered alongside your automated or manual communications.

  • In ACM Messenger, create or open a message.
  • Select Message Type: Notification with Form
  • Click Attach Form
  • Choose the form(s) you want to include.
  • Use a variable tag to populate the form link in the message
  • Send the message — the recipient will see the form and can respond immediately.

✅ Best for: Collecting responses as part of regular patient, resident, or staff communications.

Best Practices

  • Use Embed when you want forms permanently available on a website or portal.
  • Use Links for ad hoc sharing and in ACM Alerts.
  • Use ACM Messenger for targeted communication and higher completion rates.
