How to Add Forms to Notion (2024)

While there are many form builders available in the market, Tally form builder is popular among Notion users. No surprise because it seamlessly embeds onto your Notion page and has plenty of free features. In this guide, we will demonstrate the process of adding a form to Notion using Tally forms.

1. Set up your Notion site in Super

To add a form, use an existing Super site or create a new one by adding content to Notion and syncing the site to Super. Read our guide to learn more about creating your first site with Notion and Super.

2. Create and customize a Tally form

Sign up with Tally and create your first form. Build the form from scratch or use one of the templates. You can also tailor the form’s appearance to match your site’s branding:

Change colors (text, buttons, accents)
Select font style
Add a background color
Add media (images, video, etc.)

Basic customizations are available for free, with more options available through Tally Pro.

Once the form is ready:

Click Publish
Go to the Share tab and choose between Standard or Popup form
Configure options using the form preview to check how your form will look

Standard form

A Standard Tally form will permanently show on your Super site. If your website has a white background, Tally recommends disabling the Transparent background toggle. Otherwise, leave it enabled.

Popup form

A Popup form appears on your site following a user trigger. Tally offers a few different triggers for you to pick from:

On button click
On page load
After elapsed time
On exit intent
After scrolling

You can learn more about popup settings in this Tally guide.

3. Add the embed code to your Super site

For a Standard form—do this in Notion:

Click Copy embed link from Tally

Paste it on your Notion page
When prompted, select Create embed

You can drag the embed to adjust its size.

If you use a Popup form—do this in Super and Notion:

Select the popup open option from the Open dropdown (such as on button click)
Click on Get the code
Copy the code snippet (1)

In your Super site dashboard, open Code page
Paste the code snippet (1) in the Head or Body tab, and press Save changes

If you selected On button click option, copy the link href attribute (2)—make sure to only highlight the attribute and copy it

Select the text you want to link in Notion, click the link icon, and type tally.so

Directly after, paste the link href attribute (2)

Your link should look like the example below, with tally.so first, followed by the pasted attribute. When this syncs to Super, clicking the link will open the Tally form popup.

Using another form provider?

If you use an alternative form builder, get the embed link from your form provider. Head into your Notion, paste the URL, and select Create embed. Your form should appear in Notion and on your Super site.

If the form doesn’t appear, you can embed the code using a Notion code block and our Super community-generated script that runs your code. To learn more, read our guide here.
