    How can I share a link to the survey using jotforms emails that doesn't require a sign up and hides the other email addresses you're sending to. Thanks.

    Hi, I tried that, but when I shared on email, when the email arrives it shows all the other emails it was sent to. Thanks

    Hi, it's difficult to share a screenshot as it has emails in it. But when I used the 'share on email' function it worked but then in the recipient email it has all the emails I added in the 'to' box at the top. So you know when you recieve an email and at the top it says 'from' and 'to', when I used the share on email function all the emails were on the 'to'. Something like,


    From: example@jotforms.com

    To: example1@example1.com; example2@example2.com and so on

    Subject: please complete this form


    Does that make sense?

    Thanks

    Greetings,

    Yes, you are correct. All the entered emails are visible in the "TO" section. I do not see any option to add the email addresses as BCC.

    I'm creating a feature request for your requirement. We can not give any ETA at this time. If the feature is added then we will inform you here.

    Thanks
