Email & domain field options

Email and domain fields have extra settings that help you collect cleaner, business-grade contact data.

Require a work email (block personal domains)

On an email field, enable Require a work email (block personal domains) to reject consumer providers. The helper text notes: "Rejects gmail.com, hotmail.com, outlook.com and other free/personal providers."

Domain fields have the equivalent Block personal/free domains checkbox. Use this when you only want to capture real company domains.

Lock email domain to a website field

When a form collects both a website/domain and an email, you can have respondents type only the part before the "@" and fill in the domain automatically.

  1. Add a domain field to the form (the respondent answers this first).
  2. Open the email field and set Lock email domain to website to that domain field.

The helper text notes: "Respondents type only the part before the '@'. The domain is filled in from the selected website field, which must be answered first." The @domain.com suffix is hidden and derived from the website answer, for example, if the website is acme.com, an entry of jane becomes jane@acme.com.

This option only appears once the form has at least one domain field.

Derive a domain from an email (the reverse)

You can also go the other way — collect an email and pull the domain out of it automatically. This is handy for linking a submission to a Company by its domain.

  1. Add an email field.
  2. Add a domain field and set its Default value to {{email_addresses | domain}} (type {{ in the default value box and pick the email field's "— domain" entry).

As the respondent types their email, the domain field pre-fills with just the domain (jane@acme.comacme.com) and stays editable. The | domain piece is an answer-piping transform.

To then link the submission to the matching Company, point a Company record reference field's field mapping at that domain field, matching on domains.

Notes

  • These options are validation and convenience settings, available on all plans.
