Getting Started

Getting Started with Formigo

Get your first form up and running in less than 5 minutes.

Step 1: Create Your Account

First, you'll need to create a free Formigo account. No credit card required.

  1. Visit formigo.com/signup
  2. Enter your email and create a password
  3. Verify your email address
  4. You're in! 🎉

Step 2: Create Your First Form

Once logged in, create your first form:

  1. Click the "New Form" button in your dashboard
  2. Give your form a name (e.g., "Contact Form")
  3. Your form will be created instantly
  4. Copy your unique form endpoint URL

Your endpoint will look like this:

https://formigo.com/f/your-unique-slug

Step 3: Add the Form to Your Website

Now, point your HTML form to the endpoint. Here's a simple example:

<form action="https://formigo.com/f/your-unique-slug" method="POST">
  <label for="name">Name:</label>
  <input type="text" id="name" name="name" required>

  <label for="email">Email:</label>
  <input type="email" id="email" name="email" required>

  <label for="message">Message:</label>
  <textarea id="message" name="message" required></textarea>

  <!-- Add spam protection fields -->
  <input type="text" name="_formigo_hp" value="" style="display:none" tabindex="-1" autocomplete="off">
  <input type="hidden" name="_formigo_t" value="">

  <button type="submit">Send Message</button>
</form>

<script>
  // Set timestamp when form loads
  document.querySelector('input[name="_formigo_t"]').value = Math.floor(Date.now() / 1000);
</script>

Pro Tip

The spam protection fields (_formigo_hp and _formigo_t) are optional but highly recommended to keep bots away.
