How To Submit Mock Data for Forms and Surveys

Why Submit Mock Data?

Mock submissions let you test your form or survey exactly like a real visitor—without worrying about messing up reporting, confusing your team, or relying on “guesswork” for field behavior.

• Confirm required fields, custom fields, and validation rules
• Verify styling (fonts, spacing, colors, layout)
• Test submission actions (thank-you message, redirect, workflow triggers)
• Review how submissions appear in the Submissions dashboard

Step 1: Build or Open the Form/Survey

1. Go to Sites → Forms or Surveys → Builder.
2. Open the form/survey you want to test (or create a new one).
3. Add standard and custom fields as needed.
4. Use the right-side options to style the layout and design.
5. Click Save.

Step 2: Place It Where Visitors Will Use It

To test the full experience, place the form/survey on the page where it will actually be used (like a funnel step or landing page).

1. Open the page editor (funnel step, website page, etc.).
2. Add the Form or Survey element to the page.
3. Configure submit behavior (message/redirect) if applicable.
4. Save your changes.

Step 3: Submit Mock Data

• Preview the page (often the eye icon).
• Fill the form with dummy info (example: [email protected]).
• Submit the form/survey.

Step 4: Review the Submission

1. Go to Forms or Surveys → Submissions.
2. Filter to the specific form/survey you tested.
3. Click the submission timestamp/date to view details.
4. Confirm the values saved correctly and appear in the right fields/columns.

Optional Cleanup: Remove Test Contacts

If your test created a contact record, you can delete it to keep your database clean.

1. Go to Contacts.
2. Search for your test email/phone.
3. Delete the test contact (and any related test submissions if your workflow includes cleanup).
