Hidden Input Variables in Web Forms

The hidden inputs are all tied to some action or variable that is going to happen when someone submits their information on the form.

Now, the "oi" option stands for "Owner ID", which is the reference number of the employee of the system that will be the new "owner" of the lead when it arrives. Every person who has a login to EMI's system has an Owner ID. This can be found in the Manage Employees section of the system. If you look at an employee's profile, there is a field there that says "System Identifier: 5" or something to that effect. That is the number that would go into Web form. If you always want the leads to go to the main administrator, set the owner ID to 1 in the Web form.

The campaign_id option designates which campaign the lead should be assigned to when it arrives. This is a number that goes with a specific campaign name. If you go to your campaigns tab and click on the name of a campaign, in the browser URL you'll a string that looks something like this:

https://mycompany.insidesales.com/campaigns/campaign?campaign_id=6

Notice the last section says "campaign_id=6"? Well, that campaign id number is what you'd put into the Web form, so that when the lead is submitted it is assigned to the right campaign!

So, to fix the form, put the correct id numbers in, and then remove all of the extra characters, like the ##, or the __, or !! and just leave the id number.

Finally, the email option is an auto-response action that will automatically go into your InsideSales site and find an email with that ID number and send it as an immediate response action to your new lead request. Once again, just like your campaigns, every email has an ID number associated with it, which you can get from the browser URL when you go to look at one of the emails, for example:

https://mycompany.insidesales.com/emails/email?email_notice_id=16

So, if you want to take advantage of the immediate response email option, you can use it.
