How to add edit submission link to Autoresponder email?

If someone selects a week & submits but then later changes their mind for some reason, is there a way to change that week to open again?

Hi Lorraine,

Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. The form user can access their submission data via an edit link, which you can add to the Autoresponder email, and then update their selection. The available slots of the option will be automatically updated based on the changes. Here's how to do it:

1. In Form Builder, in the orange navigation bar at the top of the screen, click on Settings.

2. Click on Emails on the left side of the screen.

3. Hover your cursor over the Autoresponder email and click on the Pencil icon.

4. Click on Form Fields under Email Content.

5. Select Edit Link.

We also have a guide about How to Let Users Update Their Entries that you can check out.

Give it a try and let us know how it goes.

ok I lied. I have an additional question for this. :-)

Is there a way for us to make changes. Say someone signs up but then calls us & says they can't do it, or they get sick or for some reason they can't make changes, can we do it on our end?

Many of our parishioners are not computer savvy. Signing up in itself might be hard for them. Making changes might be way out of their wheel-house.

I'm also worried if we give people access to changes they might keep changing their minds which will make us nuts. I'd rather they call us for changes.

Hi Lorraine,

Thanks for getting back to us. By default, the edit link of the submission data is already included, as shown in the screenshot.

You can also go to your form Tables and Inbox page to access the submission data. Here's how to do it:

1. In Form Builder, on the upper left side of the screen, click on the downward arrow icon.

2. Click on Tables or Inbox.

Once you are on the Tables or Inbox page, you can then edit the submission data. Here's how to do it:

How to edit submission data in Tables:

1. In Tables, hover your cursor over the first column.

2. Click on the three vertical dots on the right side of the Star icon.

3. Select Edit Entry.

How to edit submission data in Inbox:

1. In Inbox, on the right side of the screen, click on the three vertical dots.

2. Select Edit.

Once you are done with the changes, you can click on the Submit button for the changes to be saved.

Give it a try and let us know how it goes.
