Origami Web Forms: Streamline Data Collection with Seamless, Secure Forms Introduction

In today’s fast-paced digital environment, organizations need efficient, user-friendly tools to collect data—whether from clients, partners, or internal teams.
Origami Web Forms offer a powerful, no-code solution to build and share customized forms that feed directly into your system’s workflows.

From service requests to incident reporting and beyond, Web Forms provide the bridge between your users and your data.

🔍 What Are Web Forms in Origami?

Origami Web Forms are publicly accessible forms designed to collect information from users outside the system, without requiring login access. Each form is based on an entity and tied to a specific view, ensuring data is captured and structured automatically.

Whether you’re collecting applications, feedback, or incident reports, Web Forms ensure a smooth, branded, and secure user experience.

Key Benefits

No-Code Configuration

Create and publish forms without a single line of code. System administrators can easily choose which fields to include, configure validations, and control the user experience through intuitive settings.

Public Access, Controlled Entry

Each form is available through a secure, shareable URL. You decide which fields are visible and what data is collected—Origami takes care of permissions and system integration.

Seamless System Integration

Every submitted form creates a new record in Origami in real-time, automatically triggering relevant workflows, automations, or review processes.

Branded, Responsive Experience

Customize your forms to match your brand. Origami Web Forms are mobile-friendly and optimized for modern, accessible design.

Secure and Compliant

Built-in CAPTCHA, field-level validation, and audit logging keep submissions secure. Data is stored directly in your system, ensuring consistency and compliance.

🧱 Form Pages & Sections: A Better Way to Organize

Origami Web Forms support multi-page forms and sectioned layouts, giving you full control over how information is presented and experienced.

• Pages break the form into individual steps or screens, improving user focus and flow. For example:
  
  • Page 1: Contact Details
    
  • Page 2: Business Information
    
  • Page 3: Confirmation & Declarations
    
• Sections divide each page into labeled, collapsible blocks of related fields—ideal for grouping data logically and making complex forms easier to complete.
  

This structured approach enhances usability and ensures higher submission completion rates, especially in lengthy or multi-stage forms.

💡 Tip: Use pages to guide process steps, and sections to organize content within each step.

🌟 Use Cases

• 📝 Service Requests – Enable customers to submit inquiries or issues that generate service tickets
  
• 📣 Feedback & Surveys – Gather user input directly from the public
  
• 🚨 Incident Reporting – Allow secure reporting of incidents without needing login credentials

🛠️ How It Works

• Go to the relevant Entity’s settings
