Creating forms with a user name and password...

    I have authorization forms that I want people to be able to submit, but only want to give certain people access to these forms.  Information is sensitive and authority is tightly controlled,  so a generic form website that anyone can reach will not work.  I am wondering if we can accomplish. 

    I am the administrator of our jotform account, and would like to set up a form that has user names and passwords that is maintained in jotform.  That way when someone quits or is not longer authorized to use the form, I can maintain who has access to "get into the form for submissions".....

     

    Can we do this?

    Hello,

    You cannot do that directly by a field or widget in JotForm. But there are two alternative ways to do this. One is using JotForm functionalities ( Conditions ), other one is to embed JotForm to another website which has a user login before showing JotForm. 


    I've prepared an example form that has a condition.

    When username is equal to 'onur' questions will be shown. You can test it here: https://www.jotform.com/73114005323945 

    You can clone that form to build your own. 

    Hope that helps you,

    Regards.
