    What happens if somone books an appoinment but they want to change the time? Do we have the flexability to do that as builders of the form?

    Hi BringitonSports,

    JotForm users are able to allow their recipients to update the form after submission, only with a single link. I cloned your last form in order to guide you through this question;

    1) In the Form Builder page, click "Settings" in the top navigation bar,

    2) Select "Emails" from the menu in the left,

    3) Hover on the autoresponder email box you have created before, and click on the pen button in order to make edits,

    4) Click on anywhere in the "Email Content" section where you wish to place the edit link for recipients. Open "Form Fields" dropdown in the rightmost side of the toolbar and select "Edit Link". It will place it where you left your cursor,

    5) Click "Save", or "Test Email" in order to see if it is working properly. The link will be sent to the email address specified in the email field in the form.
