Forms

A form is a public page at /f/:slug that collects structured responses from anyone with the link. No Instagram connection, no code.

What a form is

Each form lives at its own itsjustbig.com/f/<slug> address. Visitors fill it out and submit — you see the responses in your dashboard. That's the whole loop.

Create a form

  1. Open Forms in big and click New form.
  2. Give it a title.
  3. Add your fields — see Field types for what's available.
  4. Set status to active when you're ready to accept submissions.

Form settings are deliberately minimal right now:

  • Title — shown at the top of the public form.
  • Statusdraft, active, or closed. Only active forms accept submissions; draft and closed forms still exist and can be viewed in your dashboard, but visitors can't submit to them.
  • Slug — auto-generated when you create the form, and immutable. You can't change it later, so don't rely on the slug spelling out something you might want to edit.

What's not there yet

To set expectations up front, a form today does not support:

  • A description field on the public page
  • A custom success or thank-you message after submit
  • A redirect to another URL after submit
  • Custom submit-button text
  • Logo, color, or other branding configuration

If you need any of these, they're not available yet — don't build a workflow that depends on them.

Fields

Forms support 9 field types, each with its own validation. See Field types for the full list.

Share it

Once a form is active, share the public link or turn it into a trackable short link. See Share your form.

Limits

  • 1–100 fields per form.
  • Each field needs a unique field ID.
  • Submitted answers are capped at 16KB total per submission.
  • There's no plan-based cap on the number of forms, fields, or submissions — every plan gets the same limits above.
