Formstack Forms
OAuth and SMTP
Microsoft 365 OAuth is now available within Forms and Documents for your SMTP settings! This means that you can send emails through Microsoft 365 directly from Formstack—no need for additional tools or workarounds. This feature puts your email server in control and allows your Formstack confirmations and notification emails to come directly from your system, building trust with your customers while following best practices!
When technical questions arise for our users or support is needed to troubleshoot an issue, it's nice to know that a Formstack expert can access your account to help. But for many organizations, having control over that access is crucial to ensure security controls are in place.
We’ve built a way for customers to control when a Formstack expert can and cannot access their account. The impersonation consent feature helps limit outside access to your data and reduce risk to protected information.
Visit this support article to learn how you can manage impersonation consent on your account.
Formstack DOCUMENTS
Low-Code Document Builder Updates
Last year, you may have had a chance to try the beta version of the drag-and-drop Formstack Documents builder. That functionality is still available for customers to use, but we got a lot of feedback that customers like to use and want to see improvements for our WYSIWYG editor. When Formstack customers talk, we listen! =
We’ve made improvements to the WYSIWYG editor to simplify the toolbar and make it easier to add things like page breaks and headers and footers to your documents. We are rolling this out to customers in phases and you’ll be notified when you’re on the newest version.
Looking for new ways to put your data to work? If you haven’t added document automation to your tech stack, now is the time! We’ve put together a collection of video demos, pre-built templates, and customer use cases to help you jumpstart your document automation efforts.
We know getting started with a new solution can feel like a challenge, but it doesn't have to be. If you're interested in learning how a document automation solution can integrate with your central business systems, turn data into documents, and elevate your workflows, these resources are the perfect place to start.
If you’re using Formstack to collect and manage sensitive data, form encryption is a must!
Form encryption adds an extra layer of protection to your online forms by encrypting sensitive information in Formstack's online database. Set a password so only you or a group of people can access it, ensuring you comply with data protection regulations.
These encrypted forms can now be used as a step in your Copilot-powered workflow. Users on Formstack Suite plans can now use encrypted forms to collect data and map it to subsequent steps in a Formstack Copilot workflow. This feature comes with updates, such as an “Encrypted” badge on protected forms within the form selector, stored password deletion if a form or mapping fails due to poor passwords, the ability to remove encryption from a Copilot workflow, and more!
Learn more about encrypting your Formstack Forms or talk to your account representative about moving to a Formstack Suite plan to leverage this feature.
Formstack Suite Template Library
Interested in taking the full Formstack Suite for a spin but not sure where to start? Our new Suite Template Library has made getting started easier than ever. Now, all Formstack Suite accounts come equipped with a template library. These templates are fully customizable, multi-step use cases, pre-mapped, and built to help you leverage Forms, Documents, and Sign seamlessly.
