What Is a Lead Form?

A lead form is a form that viewers must fill out before accessing a document. You can collect visitor information such as names and email addresses and manage it alongside document analytics data.
To apply a lead form to documents shared from your workspace (space links), you must set it up per document in the Motion Editor. Space-level lead form settings do not apply to space links.

Adding a Lead Form

1

Open the Motion Editor

From the document detail page, click the Edit document button to open the Motion Editor.
2

Click Add Leadform

In the left sidebar, click the Add Leadform button to create a lead form.

Setting the Form Position

The lead form marker appears between page thumbnails in the left sidebar. Drag the marker to move it between the desired pages. The form is displayed to viewers before the page following the marker position. For example, if you place the marker between pages 3 and 4, the form appears when the viewer navigates to page 4.

Configuring the Form

Selecting the lead form opens a settings panel on the right side.
