HTML FormsNotifications & integrations

Email notifications

Get every submission by email, with your own recipients, subject line and sender name.

Each new submission sends a notification email with every field, the page it came from and a link to view it in your dashboard. Emails go out within seconds and are retried automatically if delivery fails.

Recipients

By default the notification goes to the form’s email address. In the form’s notification settings you can add more recipients, including CC and BCC, or turn notifications off.

Recipients can only be set in the dashboard. Fields in your HTML can never change who receives the email.

Subject line

The subject is chosen in this order:

  1. The subject template in your notification settings.
  2. The form’s subject field.
  3. The default: New submission: {{form_name}}.

Templates can include any submitted field in double curly braces, plus {{form_name}}:

Text
New {{plan}} enquiry from {{name}} ({{form_name}})
→ New Pro enquiry from Jane Smith (Website contact)

Sender name

Set the display name in your notification settings, or per form with a hidden from_name field. The From address is always a Formclick address so your emails pass SPF and DMARC checks.

Reply-To

When the form has a valid email field, it becomes the Reply-To of the notification. Press Reply in your inbox and you are writing to the visitor.

Emails going to spam?

  • Add the Formclick sending address to your contacts or a safe-senders list.
  • In Gmail, open the email and choose Report not spam; future notifications learn from it.
  • Check the dashboard: every submission is saved there even if an email is filtered.
