Spreadsheet to Form: Ability to pull the data automatically if the inserted code is correct.

    Is there any way to have the form automatically populate itself without having to click the "auto complete fields" button on page load?

    I'm trying to do this: A link is sent with the unique code in the link like this: https://www.jotform.com/xxxx?uniquecode=123. Then when they click on that it would take them to the form and populate it without them having to click the button.

    Thanks

    I'm afraid this is not currently possible to do, there is no workaround for this. I'm opening a feature request for this, although we cannot provide an ETA, we will let you know via this ticket if this is implemented. 

    Thanks.

    I was just trying to get the same solution today. Being able to pre-populate the form would be so much better.

    The other options is to use URL parameters to pre-fill in a form, but that is not idea in all situations.

    This has been passed to our developers as a feature request. Hopefully, it will be implemented at some point. We will update this support ticket if we have any news.
