To begin, you'll need to create a Brevo account, which is free and takes only a few minutes.

You can enter the email address(es) where you want to receive notifications in the email notification settings. Ensure that the email addresses are accurate to prevent any delays in receiving form submission updates.

By customizing the email subject and message, you can include relevant details in the notification, such as the form submission data.

With your email notification settings configured, you'll receive instant updates whenever someone fills out a form on your website.

Adding Email to Your Page

Adding email to your page is a crucial step in setting up email from Webflow. To do this, you'll need to click on Pages and then Edit Page Settings.

You'll then need to paste the Getform.js code into the page settings, replacing GETFORM_FORM_ID with your actual Getform Form ID. This code is essential for integrating your form with Getform.

Next, select the form and click Element Settings. This is where you'll insert your Getform endpoint into the action field and set the method to POST.

Sending a test submission and previewing it on Getform is also a good idea to ensure everything is working correctly. This will help you catch any errors before your form goes live.
