Tables Prefill - Invitation to wrong address

  • Shaina_Holm
    Asked on June 13, 2024 at 3:09 PM

    Is there a way to choose the address a tables prefill will be sent to? The form collects multiple email addresses, and when I go to send an invite to the respondent, it is picking the incorrect email to send the invitation to. I don't see a way to edit that other than manually changing each one.

    Hi Shaina_Holm,

    Unfortunately, there is currently no manual way to select the email field that will be used in the prefill, as it will use the first email field on the form. As a workaround you can add a button in Tables to send the prefilled forms. Let me show you how.

    1. On Tables, click on Add next to the last column title.
    2. Click on Buttons, click on Send Form, then click on Next.
    3. Name your column, click on Next.

    4. Select the form you want to send, and toggle Prefill Form Fields to On and match your fields, then click on Next.
    5. Click on Fields, accross Recipient Address and add the email field with your recipients.
    6. Click on Create Column.

    You can send the emails by clicking on the Send Form button on your Tables.
