# Form Submit Redirection

## Form Submit Redirection

{% hint style="info" %}
**This feature has been moved to** screen-action&#x73;**.**
{% endhint %}

**Old Documentation**

When a user submits the form on an **Form (Add Item)** or an **Form (Update One Item)** screen, you can redirect them to an external link. This feature allows for a smoother user experience, directing users exactly where they need to go after they've completed a form.

{% hint style="info" %}
This feature is only available on paid plans.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
This feature can only be tested on the app and not on the app builder.
{% endhint %}

This is how you can enable redirection in your apps:

1. Open the app builder
2. Navigate to either the **Form (Add Item)** or **Form (Update One Item)** screen.
3. Switch on the toggle to enable **Redirect after save**

Whether it's a thank-you page, a confirmation of submission, or back to the dashboard, tailoring the user's journey has never been easier.

**Popular Use Cases for Redirection After Submission**

Redirecting users after they perform an action in your app enhances the user experience by guiding them through a seamless journey. Here are some common scenarios where this feature is particularly useful:

1. **Survey Completion:** Once a user finishes a survey, redirect them to a page that thanks them for their input and possibly offers them a discount or entry into a contest as a token of appreciation.
2. **Content Submission:** For apps that allow user-generated content, redirect users to a dashboard, gallery, or portfolio page after they submit their work, showing them that their submission was successful.
3. **Membership Registration:** After a new user signs up for a service, redirect them to a welcome page that introduces them to the features of the app or directly takes them to the user app.
4. **Event Registration:** After registering for an event, users can be redirected to a page where they can download their ticket or add the event to their calendar.

### When this app needs automation

Use the normal instructions on this page when users only need to view, add, or update data. Use automation when the app needs to do something after that data changes, such as submit for approval, notify a reviewer, route work to a queue, start a conversation, update workflow status, or show a recoverable failure.
