Add an Assistant Form

Assistant forms let an assistant collect structured information from visitors — a name, an email, a question — right inside the chat. Each submission is stored as a lead you can review later under the assistant's Associated data.

The lead flow — a visitor chats, the assistant shows a form, the visitor submits it, the entry is stored as a lead, and you review it under Associated data.

Before You Start

  • Open the assistant you want to collect leads with.
  • Decide what to collect — keep it to the few fields you'll actually use.

Steps

  1. Open the assistant's Settings.
  2. Open the Forms tab.
  3. Choose Create New Form.
  4. Give it a Form Title and a short description — this is what visitors see above the fields.
  5. Add the fields you need (see Configure Form Fields).
  6. Save the assistant configuration.

Keep forms short

A form is usually just two or three fields (for example name, email, and one question). Visitors can skip a form unless you mark its fields required, so ask only for what you'll act on — longer forms get abandoned.

The assistant's Forms tab with an example form expanded to show its fields — key, title, type, and whether each is required (sample data).

Verify the Result

Open the assistant in the playground and submit the form as a visitor would. The submission should then appear under the assistant's leads.

Troubleshooting

  • If Leads / Associated data is missing, confirm the assistant has a saved form.
  • If visitors don't submit the form, shorten it and make the prompt clearer.
