Enable form autosave

Save respondents’ progress so they can return later to complete a form.

Written by Gareth Burroughes

Autosave allows respondents to partially complete a form and continue later using the same device and browser. Their progress is saved automatically, so they don’t need to start over if they leave the form before submitting it.


Before you start

Things you need to know:

  • For autosave to work, contacts must use the same device and browser.


How partial completion works

We store partially completed forms on the local storage of a user's browser. This allows contacts to return and finish the form later, while keeping their data private. Partial completion data isn’t stored in your account.

Privacy

Local storage is a feature of modern web browsers. From a legal perspective, it is considered to be under the same law as cookies.


Turn on autosave for your forms

  1. On the form editor, expand the FORM OPTIONS drop-down menu and select Settings.

  2. On Form settings, for Autosave, select YES.

  3. Select APPLY.

  4. Select SAVE to save your form.

That's it. You can now publish your form in the normal way.
