Uploads when using source code

    Is it possible to have form uploads when using the source code, not an iframe?

    If yes, is it possible to change the location (temp and perm) of where those files are stored (locally on our server).

    Thank You

    Yes, it is possible to still use the form uploads even with the source code. However, it is still not possible to change the location of the upload storage. It will still be pointing to JotForm's servers.

    However, it is possible to integrate your form to run an FTP connection for receiving submissions. This way, the file submissions you receive will automatically transfer to your server.

    What if we were to change the destination in the scripting file, and we run the script locally. Would that work?

    As what my colleague have said, uploaded files are always sent to JotForm servers. It is not possible to send uploaded files directly to your local server. You can however, use the FTP to receive Form Submissions and uploaded files to be forwarded to your own server.

    Hope this helps.
