Home/Integrations/Forms/Jotform
Collect video answers in a Jotform form.
Host the AddPipe recorder on a small page of your own, embed it with Jotform's iframe widget, and pass an identifier through so each recording arrives tied to its submission.
Your upload quota stays untouched
Recordings go to AddPipe, not to Jotform, so long video answers do not eat into your form storage or your plan's file limits.
A real recorder, not a file picker
Respondents record on the spot rather than finding and uploading a file, which is the difference between a 60 percent completion rate and a 10 percent one.
Phone-first
Works in mobile Safari and Chrome with no app, which matters because most Jotform submissions arrive from a phone.
What forms use it for.
Testimonials and reviews
A customer speaking to camera for thirty seconds is worth more than a five-star rating with no words.
Applications and auditions
A spoken introduction or a performance, recorded in the same form as the written answers.
Feedback with a screen
Screen recording for bug reports and usability feedback, so you see the problem rather than read about it.
Details.
Why an iframe rather than pasting the embed code directly?
Jotform runs custom content in a sandboxed widget, so the cleanest route is to host a small page containing the recorder and point Jotform's iFrame Embed widget at it. That page is yours, so the recorder has full access to camera and microphone permissions.
How does a recording get matched to its submission?
Pass an identifier into the iframe URL as a query parameter and send it to AddPipe as custom data. It comes back on the webhook, so the recording arrives already linked to the submission.
Can I put the recording name into a form field instead?
Yes, where the widget allows it, by posting a message from your iframe to the parent page and writing it into a hidden field. The custom data route is more reliable, because it does not depend on cross-frame messaging.
Does the video count against my Jotform upload limit?
No. The recording uploads to AddPipe, not to Jotform, so your form storage quota is untouched however long the recordings are.
Does it work on phones?
Yes, in mobile Safari and Chrome with no app, which matters because most Jotform submissions come from a phone.
