# Public page & identity

Turn on the public page at your dForms handle, write the headline and the about paragraph, and read the identity block that shows your name, email, handle, account code and vanity slug.

Your public page is a single page at your handle that lists the forms of your workspace. It is off until you turn it on, and its address is your account code followed by your handle.

This page also holds **Your identity**, the read-only block that tells you exactly which name, handle and account code the outside world sees on your public page.

***

**Step 1:** Click your name at the bottom of the left menu, then choose **Public page** under **Account settings**.

***

**Step 2:** Turn the **Published** switch on. The path just under the description (for example `/acme/alex`) is where the page will live. While the switch is off, that address returns nothing.

***

**Step 3:** Fill in the two fields and click **Save**. You will see the confirmation **Public page saved.**

| Field        | Placeholder                          | What it is for                                            |
| ------------ | ------------------------------------ | --------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Headline** | What you help people with            | One line under your name. Keep it to a short sentence.    |
| **About**    | A short paragraph about what you do. | A paragraph under the headline, before the list of forms. |

Next to **Save** there is a **View page** link that opens the live page in a new tab.

> **💡 Tip:** There is no way to hide a single form from the list: the page lists every form of your workspace, oldest first, each under its public **Form title** (or its name when it has none). When the workspace has no forms yet, the page shows **Nothing published yet.** See [Your public page](/dforms/share/public-page.md).

***

**Step 4:** Open the page to check it. It shows your initials or avatar, your name, the headline, the about paragraph, and then every form of your workspace as a row you can click.

## Your identity

The block below the settings is read-only. It exists so you always know which values make up your public addresses.

| Field            | What it is                                                                                                                                |
| ---------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Name**         | The name shown at the top of your public page.                                                                                            |
| **Email**        | The address you sign in with.                                                                                                             |
| **Handle**       | The second part of your public page's address, unique to you. It is created for you the first time you sign in. Form links do not use it. |
| **Account code** | The 6 character code that starts every public URL, for example `acme`.                                                                    |
| **Vanity slug**  | A readable replacement for the account code. Shows **Not set** until you have one.                                                        |

At the bottom of the block, **View public page** opens the live page in a new tab.

> **⚠️ Note:** The vanity slug is a premium perk tied to your Dapta subscription, not a dForms setting. Claiming one does not break anything you already shared: old account codes keep working forever, so links you sent last month still open.

***

## Where these values show up

* Every form you publish gets the URL `app.dforms.ai/{account code}/f/{form slug}`, for example `app.dforms.ai/acme/f/lead-qualification-quiz`. The `f` is fixed, so a form link never names the person who built it. See [Your public link](/dforms/share/public-link.md).
* Form links shared before September 26, 2026 have your handle where the `f` is now. They keep working.
* Your public page lives at `app.dforms.ai/{account code}/{handle}`, and each form it lists links to the form's `/f/` address.
* While the page is published, the **Home** screen shows a **Your public page** box with a **Copy** button, so you can grab the link without coming back here.

***

## What's next

* [Your public page](/dforms/share/public-page.md): what visitors see and how to share it.
* [Your public link](/dforms/share/public-link.md): the URL of a single form.
* [Workspaces](/dforms/account/workspaces.md): the workspace name and account code that sit behind these links.
* [Design & Branding](/dforms/design.md): the logo and colors your forms use.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.dapta.ai/dforms/account/public-page-and-identity.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
