# Lead capture (website form)

Lead capture puts a Shortcut lead form on your website so website inquiries become **Leads** automatically.

If you don't have a website (or don't want to touch code), you can skip this.

## Where to find it

Open **Settings → Customers → Lead capture**. [Open Lead capture →](https://shortcutco.com/settings/lead-capture)

## Lead intake page (shareable link)

Shortcut shows a direct URL you can share: `/intake/your-slug`. Use it if you'd rather share a link than put the form on your website.

To change the end of the link, edit **Your URL slug** and click **Save URL**. The **Direct URL** tab shows the full link, with **Open** and **Copy URL** beside it.

## Embedded intake form (iframe code)

To put the form on your website, click **Iframe embed code**, then **Copy embed code** (the button says **Copied!**). Paste the code into your website where you want the form to appear, or send it to whoever manages your site.

The code looks like this:

{% code title="iframe.html" %}

```html
<iframe src="https://shortcutco.com/intake/your-slug" width="100%" height="900" style="border:0;" loading="lazy" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin"></iframe>
```

{% endcode %}

### Not sure how to add it to your site?

Two easy options:

* Send the code to whoever manages your website and ask them to add it to your Contact page.
* If you use Wix/Squarespace/WordPress, look for an **Embed** or **Code** block and paste the code there.

***

## Form fields

The intake form captures the following from leads:

* **Name** (first + last)
* **Company name** (optional)
* **Email**
* **Phone** (with SMS consent checkbox)
* **Property address** (suggests addresses as they type)
* **Special requests / notes**
* **Services** they're interested in (the ones you show — see [Services on the form](#services-on-the-form))

{% hint style="info" %}
The form has built-in spam protection (**reCAPTCHA**). There's nothing to set up.
{% endhint %}

***

## Services on the form

**Services shown on intake form** lists every choice your form offers, in the order visitors see them.

* **Your active services appear automatically.** Switch one to **Hidden** to leave it off the form, or back to **Visible** to show it.
* **Add a choice that isn't in your catalog:** click **Add intake-only service**. A new row opens at the top. Type a name where it says **Service name** and press **Enter**; clicking away saves too, and **Esc** cancels. These rows are marked **Intake-only**.
* **Rename an intake-only service:** click its name, or **⋯ → Edit**. Press **Enter** or click away to save; **Esc** cancels.
* **Remove an intake-only service:** click **⋯ → Remove**. The row goes straight away and a message like *Removed “Snow plowing”* appears with an **Undo** button. Click **Undo** while the message is showing to put it back.
* **Set the order:** drag any row by its handle. The public form shows services in exactly this order, catalog and intake-only mixed together.

Each change saves as you make it.
