All plan levels automatically come with a free integration with Wufoo that enables you to sign up for a Wufoo account and create custom online forms that are accessible right from within your account. Please note, you do have to sign up for a paid plan on Wufoo before you can use their forms. 


Wufoo is an online form builder tool that can help anybody build amazing online forms. Using this Wufoo integration will save your applicant the trouble of having to fill out a cumbersome Word or pdf document, save it and send it back to you as an attachment. Instead, you can send the applicant your custom form from the Send feature in the application viewer and the applicant can just fill it out online and hit submit. Once they've completed the form, it will show up in your account in the application viewer on the Files tab and you'll see a notification on your dashboard alerting you that the form has been completed.
