6 years agoSince this, you say, is being sent out by an email Notification, then the formula would go into a formula URL field on the record and you would have words on the email notification like
Click here [my url field goes here] to complete your registration.
If there are still Syntax errors with that untested formula, please copy and paste in the syntax error text.

Thank you!
That works! The notification sent successfully with the link. I like the way it displays.
However, when I clicked the Submit button, I was given and Error, page not found.
The record was saved and updated.

OK, so we are getting there.
This part of the formula here
a=showpage&pageid=7
is saying to display page # 7
When you look at your list of pages, the page ID# is on the right. So check that you are displaying a page which, in fact, does exists :)

------------------------------ - SamanthaSand5 years agoQrew MemberThis is great, thanks for sharing! I learned something new.
Is there a way to send an external person a link to a QB form that does NOT require a login?
The use case would be a request for a client to write us a review. For example, we send a notification via email with the link to the form (this opens an existing document in edit mode) and when they submit, the document is saved with their comments and they are redirected to a thank you page on our website.
Requiring a login would be a no-go and we'd probably use WordPress instead... I'm just thinking if QB can do it I'd like to learn how.

Yes, Quick Base can be used in EOTI mode, Everyone On The Internet. I don't have a link handy to which explains the full set of best practices, but if you search on EOTI or Everyone ON The Internet, you will find many posts.
Some of the techniques are.
Invited the EOTI by adding the user
Everyone on the internet (spelled exactly that way) to the app. Don't sent the email invitations as it will send 3 billion emails (OK just kidding about that).
Set a form for View mode for the Role so that when they save they end up on a "thank you" version page with no personal information.
Have the EOTI in a separate app and use Sync Tables as opposed to opening up your main app to EOTI.
