# Publish, Share & Embed

Every way to get a published dForms form in front of people: the public link, a QR code, an embed on your own website, and a page at your handle that lists your forms.

Every form gets a public URL the moment you create it. Anyone can open it, on any device, with no Dapta account and nothing to install. What they see is the live version of the form: your edits stay in a draft until you click **Publish**.

Everything you need to share it sits in one place: the five icon buttons next to **Publish** in the editor topbar.

| ------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Copy link** | Copies the public URL to your clipboard. The icon flashes a check mark.                                                                      |
| **Edit link** | Changes the last part of the URL. Links you already shared keep working. See [Your public link](/dforms/share/public-link.md#edit-the-link). |
| **Embed**     | Gives you the snippet that runs the form inside your own website. See [Embed on your website](/dforms/share/embed.md).                       |
| **QR code**   | Shows the link as a QR code you can download as SVG or PNG. See [Share with a QR code](/dforms/share/qr-code.md).                            |
| **Open form** | Opens the live form in a new tab.                                                                                                            |

## What people get

The link opens the live, published version of your form. Respondents see your design, your questions and your logic, and nothing of the editor.

This is the page your link, your embed and your social preview all point at.</p></figcaption></figure>

> **⚠️ Note:** New edits stay in the draft until you publish again. Respondents keep seeing the last published version, and the **Unpublished changes** dot next to **Publish** reminds you there is something waiting. See [Autosave, drafts & publishing](/dforms/builder/autosave-and-publishing.md).

# 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/share.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.
