Form Links Report

Learn how to run the Form Links Report and understand its filters, exported fields, and participant-specific links.

Written by Trent Kocurek

The Form Links Report exports participant-specific links for forms that allow external responses. It is useful when a form must be completed for selected students or participants and you need share-ready links in a spreadsheet.


Columns Included in This Report

The default Excel export includes these columns:

  • User

  • Title

  • Description

  • Link


How It Works

  1. Go to Reporting.

  2. Open the Forms tab.

  3. In the Report dropdown, select Form Links.

  4. Optionally choose Accounts, Forms, Categories, Tags, Users, and Groups.

  5. Select Generate to export the report.


Common Use Case: Staff Completing Forms for Students

Use this report when staff need to complete the same subject-required form for multiple students or participants. The User column identifies the student or participant the response will be attached to. The person who opens the link can still be a staff responder.

  • Each row represents one student or participant and one form.

  • Each link is unique to that student or participant.

  • The completed response is saved to the matching profile.

  • Share each link only with the intended responder or approved communication channel.


Benefits

  • Generate direct form links for selected profiles - Create links for many students or participants in one export.

  • Support subject-required forms - Use this report when each response must connect to a profile.

  • Streamline staff outreach - Give staff the correct participant-specific links without opening each profile individually.

  • Keep responses organized - Submitted forms are saved to the matching student or participant.


Filters and Export Fields

  • Accounts is available for umbrella accounts.

  • Forms limits the report to selected forms.

  • Categories limits the report to selected categories.

  • Tags limits the report to tagged forms.

  • Users limits the report to selected students or participants.

  • Groups limits the report to selected groups.

Only forms that allow external responses are included in the final export.


Best Practices

  • Use the Forms filter to keep the export focused on the form you plan to share.

  • Use Users or Groups filters to generate links only for the intended students or participants.

  • Review the spreadsheet before distributing links.

  • Make sure each responder receives the correct participant-specific link.

  • Use Invite Responder instead when you only need to send one link for one selected student or participant.
