Each option is discussed below. The form's Access Control dictates it's visibility regardless of share options; if you want it to be public, be sure to select Who can start the form? = Anyone (login not required).
- Embedded Form enables you to embed a form that will be displayed in your website. Simply copy and paste the code into your web page where you want the form to appear. frevvo takes care of the rest. This option will render the form on your Web page in its entirety, without requiring users to click scroll bars when using the form. You cannot control the height nor the width that the form will use on your web page when embedded in this fashion. The length used by the form automatically resizes as repeats are added and sections expanded/collapsed or made visible/invisible. Refer to the Embedded Form/Workflows on Mobile Devices topic for the details regarding mobile devices. frevvo's Training Registration Form is a good example of this share option.
- Embedded Form Link should be used to embed your form into a Portlet container.
- Link (Email/Web Page) lets you add a link to your form on your Web page or simply email the link to the people whom you want to submit your form. This can also be used to provide access to a form over social media.
- Full Page/Pop Up lets users access the form in its own pop-up window so users can complete the form and return to your Web page when they are done. It is intended for desktop only. You will be prompted to save the code provided as an HTML page, then publish the page on your server.
- Just the iframe is similar to the Embedded Form option but requires you to specify your form’s width and height. In fact the script tag is the same except it has different form URL parameters. For instance the Just the iframe option does not contain center=true, so the form will not be centered nor have a border. Using this option, the user may see scroll bars when they use your form if you do not specify a height long enough to contain the form when it is fully expanded. (Remember that your form can "grow" from its initial height if users select repeat items, expand sections that are initially collapsed, and so on.) The height and width are form properties but the height property generally is blank since the form sizes dynamically when you design it. There are a number of freeware tools (for example, MeasureIt) that you can use to measure your form’s height.
- Raw Form Link lets you email a link to the form just as the Link (Email/Web Page) option does, but it is intended for filling out a form collaboratively and requires coordination between the parties filling out the form. The first person can fill out a portion of the form but must make sure '''not''' to submit it. He or she then can copy the URL (which will have been updated to collect the entered data) and mail this updated URL to the next collaborator. When this person accesses the URL, the form will be displayed with the values entered by the previous collaborator. The other difference between this option and the Link (Email/Web Page) option is that this option does not include an iframe border decoration.

When you create a new form, by default it has Access Control marked as Anyone (no login required), meaning anyone that is given the form's URL via any of the form's SharingForms share choices has access to use and submit the form. You may change it to Designer/Owner Only, so that the only person who can use the form via any of the form's SharingForms Anyone (login not required) is the person logged into this frevvo account. Once you are ready to let others use your form you can again mark the form as Anyone (no login required).
