FAQs

We address some frequently asked questions about building your form.

chevron-rightHow do I upgrade my embedded form SDK version?hashtag

If you're using the Javascript embed, check the script source URL.

  • If it uses @feathery/react@latest, your embed will automatically upgrade in a few hours from when the latest version was published. Make sure to redeploy your site at that time to ensure the old version is not still cached.

  • If it uses @feathery/react@<version>, edit the version number to reflect the versionarrow-up-right you want to switch to. Then, redeploy your site.

If you're using the React SDK, you'll want to upgrade the library as you would any other NPM package in your repo (e.g. yarn upgrade @feathery/react)

chevron-rightWhy are multiple users able to access the same submission?hashtag

You're directing them towards a unique submission link, which is a URL that contains a _id=<ID> parameter at the end. Your normal form link should be formatted like https://form.feathery.io/to/<slug>/, without the _id parameter at the end.

chevron-rightHow do I add a Thank You page to my form post-submission?hashtag

You can add a Thank You page to your form by adding a last step that doesn't navigate anywhere else. You can use text and images to style it as you'd like.

chevron-rightI turned on an integration but it's not triggering. What's going on?hashtag

If the event that triggers your integration is Form Completion, a mistake when testing is to use an already completed submission and attempting to update it. Your integration will only trigger for newly completed submissions. To be safe, make sure to test in Incognito or have Remember User turned off in your form settings.

Another possibility is that the fields you mapped to the integration weren't actually filled out in the submission.

chevron-rightHow do I create a back button?hashtag

chevron-rightWhy can't I place elements or containers in the mobile layout?hashtag

You must go to the desktop or unconstrained viewport to add new things to your form. Use the Visibility control in the Layout section of the Style tab to hide and display different basic elements on desktop or mobile.

chevron-rightWhy won't my element or container alignment update? hashtag

If you have an element or container nested inside another container, you may have conflicting alignments applied. Check the nested element or container to modify the alignment directly. This will override the parent level alignment. Read more about alignment here.

chevron-rightHow do I restore my form to the last published version?hashtag

Feathery autosaves your form as you are making changes, creating a new draft as needed. When you publish, the draft becomes the new published version. Sometimes, you may wish to abandon your form's latest draft and revert back to the last published version. The form's share menu is available as a dropdown menu on the right side of the Publish button. The "Restore last published" menu item in the form's share menu allows you to restore.

chevron-rightWhy am I getting SSL errors when I open a form?hashtag

Some outdated browser versions can lead to SSL errors that prevent you from loading a Feathery form. To mitigate this, please upgrade to the latest version of your browser.

chevron-rightWhat's the difference between an SDK key and an API key?hashtag

The SDK key is designed to be client-facing and accessible by your users. It allows limited actions tied to form actions. The API key is a secret and designed to be used with the Feathery API suitearrow-up-right, which allows for more configurability.
