    Is it possible to input an email address in a form field and have the submission sent to that address also? If so, how do I do this

    Thanks, Rob

    Hi Rob,

    Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. I was not able to check your form due to the password, but if you meant to add more recipients then it’s easy to send Notification Emails to more than one person. Let me show you how to add a recipient to your Notification Email:

    • In Form Builderin the orange navigation bar at the top of the screen, click on Settings.
    • In the menu on the left side of the page, click on Emails.
    • To edit it, click on the Pencil icon on the right side of the Notification Email.
    • Then, under the Recipients tab, just enter a new email address.

    If that’s not exactly what you’re looking for, can you explain a bit more so I can help you better? 

    After we hear back from you, we’ll have a better idea of what’s going on and how to help.

    Thank you for the response, what I want to do is to be able to enter an
    email address into a form field and once the form is submitted, the
    submitted form will also be delivered to the email address in the form
    field. I know how to add email addresses in the background but I want the
    person who fills out the form to be able to add additional addresses as
    well.
    Thanks, Rob

    Hi Rob,

    Thanks for getting back to us. When you add an email field to your form, the Autoresponder email is automatically set up on the form and the recipient will be the email address that would be entered into the form. So, once the form is submitted, the submitted form will automatically be delivered to the email address in the form field.

    You can also add another email field and add another Autoresponder email as below:

    • In Form Builderin the orange navigation bar at the top of the screen, click on Settings.
    • In the menu on the left side of the page, click on Emails.
    • To edit it, click on the Add an email and select the Autoresponder Email.

    ​​Now, both of the emails will get an Autoresponder Email after they fill out your form.

    Reach out again if there’s anything else we can help you with.
