What Do I Need to Set Up a Form Capture?

What is a form capture? 

We all use forms on our website to try to capture who is showing interest in our product or service.  These range from your standard contact us forms to a required form for downloading content such as a whitepaper or datasheet. This feature allows you to track visitors that come to your site and fill out your lead capture form with the current and detailed data that the form collects.  Now when that visitor returns, the Visual Visitor alerts will show the specific and current information that was collected during that form capture.  You will also be able to keep using the Visual Visitor tag process to update/change the way that the visitor appears in your Dashboard.


What do I need to set up my form capture integration? 

The form capture integration requirements are the following

  1. The form must be physically on the page
  2. The form must have a name and ID attribute 
  3. The form can not use iFrame or Java Script

If your form is embedded with Java Script and/or iFrame the form capture can not integrate.
