How do I set up referral link tracking or create custom links / URL? I do not want to create multiple forms.

Hi there,

Please take a look at our Referral widget and let us know if it fits your requirements: https://www.jotform.com/widgets/get-referrer.

Hi there,

I don't think the Referral Widget works in this instance. We will be promoting this form on Instagram, Twitter, and Email. Essentially I would like to assign a unique URL to each of the previously mentioned platforms. So that we can monitor that X number of users came from Instagram, X number came from Twitter... etc.

How would I do that?

Thanks!

Hello!

You can do that by adding a hidden text field to your form and filling it using a parameter that you will specify for each platform.

This will enable you to, for example, post a link with a special parameter to your Facebook, the field will be filled with "Facebook", and it will be visible to you in your form submissions.

To do this:

• Add a Short Text field to your form (I will name it Referral)
  
  
• Hide the field
  
  
  
  
• Customize the link to fill this hidden field with a value. You will need a custom link for each platform - for example, to fill the hidden field with the value Facebook, share this link on Facebook:
  
  https://www.jotform.com/[your form id]?referral=Facebook
  
  
• Here's the result:

Please let us know if that suits your needs.

Thank you!

Thank you! That's a great solution
