Renaming links for jot forms?

    Hello. Is there a way to change the shared link names? For example, I have attached similar but different jot-form link campaigns that were running.

    1) https://form.jotform.com/242396473741160

    2) https://form.jotform.com/242396166018156

    Is there a way to change the names of these links to match the actual names of the forms? This way, we can easily differentiate between them when sharing the links with others without having to click on each link to see which one is which. It would be helpful to change the link names to match the actual names of the jotforms to make it easier for everyone. I hope this makes sense.

    Hi Johnathon,

    Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. Yes, you can rename these URLs that can change your form IDs to descriptive texts. Here's how:

    1. Edit your form and click on Publish. You should also notice that you will be on the Quick Share page on the left panel
    2. Next, under Share with Link, click the pen icon right after the URL inside the text field

    3. You will then notice that the text inside will be editable. You will see also that the only part that can be edited is from the forward slash right after your username. You can then type the text that you would like there.
    4. Finally, click the Apply button to save your settings

    After saving this changes, you can share new link to your users. Take note that the old URL that contains the numeric ID of the form is still usable. So you can either use that by default or you can use your custom URL. You can also check this guide to learn more.

    Let us know if you have other questions.
