Forms Template

Forms allow you to request input from users and automatically include the responses in a case or playbook. Examples:

• To request information about a task when it’s marked as done in a case, assign a form to a case type and then select that case type when creating the case. For instructions on assigning a form to a case type, see Add tasks to a case.

• If you have a playbook that depends on steps that can't be fully automated, you can send a form to a user and automatically incorporate the responses in the playbook. To use a form for a playbook automation, select the Ask User Input automation in Easy Mode.
