Help Desk Request Form with Images (JotForm + Dropbox)

It`s very easy and convenient when using  Google Form to create an IT Request Form. However, the only problem is the client cannot upload and files through Google Form. It's time to find an alternative solution. Although, there are many good services that provide with charges, they are not my type. After searching and digging, I finally found one that possibly works. It's the combination between JotFrom and Dropbox, so files will be stored in Dropbox account. This one can be used in many cases such as: volunteer form, job application form, survey form and even purchasing with Paypal.

Limits: 100 submissions / month

I will show you how to integrate JotForm and Dropbox account to create an IT Request Form with images.

Step 1: Access to the www.jotform.com/dropbox


Step 2: Login to your Dropbox account





This is a sample form. It can be edited later.


Step 3: Lauch Form Builder to build your own form.



Step 4: Test your work!


Step 5: Check your email and congratulation!


Tips: Jotform can easily be added to Google spreadsheet or Google Drive. You can export the submission anytime you want in excel, csv or pdf format. Moreover, you can easily change the name of  the URL address.


Good news from JotForm: you can increase the monthly submission by using many methods.


Have fun!
