Publishing Intake Forms

This topic describes the steps to complete to publish intake forms.

You need to publish intake forms in order to:

  • Migrate intake forms from a source environment to a target environment, such as when migrating from the test environment to the production environment.

Before you publish an intake form, it is highly recommended that you ensure it is thoroughly tested in sandbox mode.

For more information on testing options, see Testing Intake Forms.

Note: Intake forms in draft status can’t be cloned or migrated.

  1. Confirm that you have saved and tested all changes made to your form.

  2. In the Intake Form Designer, click Publish.
