You probably already know how to add an edit link to your email alerts, which allows you or your user to edit a submission using a link.
By default, the text shown in the email is “Edit Submission”. How do we customize this text? You can do that by following the steps below:
- Go to the Form Builder’s Settings tab.
- Click Email on the left.
- Edit your existing email alert or create a new one.
- Place your cursor in the Email Content editor where to insert the edit link.
- Click the Insert/edit link icon.
- In the Insert link window, set the URL to:
https://www.jotform.com/edit/{id} - Input your desired anchor text in the Text to display field.
- Click the Ok button to complete the setup.
- Hit the Save button to save the changes.

Having to repost as the 'To' URL is being auto hidden, so I'm adding spaces to try and display
For example;
From: <a target='_blank' href="https://www.jotform.com/edit/{id}" >https://www.jotform.com/edit/{id}</a>
To: h t t p s : // companyname . jotform . com / edit / {id}
Have fun!
Hopefully
Hi all,
Just a note to help enterprise users which a leant through trial and error... you will need to update the URL to cater for your Jotform domain. Simply replace the www with the prefix Jotform created for your custom URL.
For example;
From: <a target='_blank' href="https://www.jotform.com/edit/{id}" >https://www.jotform.com/edit/{id}</a>

strange, url is not displayed. Let me try with spaces :
h t t p s : / / e u . j o t f o r m . c o m / e d i t / ... is working
h t t p s : / / w w w . j o t f o r m . c o m / e d i t / ... is not working
forgot the working URL
Note: eu www
Be careful when following this documenation. You might need to change the server adr, otherwise it will not work. Guess it depends on your CDN location.
Eg. for us <a target='_blank' href="https://www.jotform.com/edit/{id}" >https://www.jotform.com/edit/{id}</a> does NOT work.
But is WORKING
I had to advice all our end users manually, since I didn't test before ... never touch a running JOTFORM
How can I change the "Edit Submission" text label that is used when writing results to a spreadsheet?
Hola Segui los pasos como indican pero no aparece para editar la cita de agenda.....
Thank you. This is very helpful
I am trying to append the word "resubmit" to the end of the link the requester sees in an email they get when their request is denied. This way I can build a condition that if the URL contains "resubmit", hide a value.
Starting with your example above, this is the link url that I am using: <a target='_blank' href="https://www.jotform.com/edit/{id}/resubmit/" >https://www.jotform.com/edit/{id}/resubmit/</a>
Unfortunately, when the requester clicks this hyperlink in the email, he goes to a "WHOOPS" page.
Obviously I am formatting the link incorrectly. Can you help?
This was really helpful, thanks
how to customize the link to only show a certain page. If I want the approver just to be able to edit their own page instead of the whole form
