Hi 

I have started another base. The main base is working fine and this base is for an add on registration service. I tried to create the form https://airtable.com/app6DqS2bqGtz03sG/pagZRFkh5bC0Ay4TK/form

I have filled out the film and submitted it but it does not populate anything in the base. I also cant find the form when I go back to my work sheet.

Please may I have some assistance

Assuming you have both an Interface form and a normal Interface, you can get to the Interface form by clicking "Interfaces" at the top of the screen:

Then click the base name at the top left and then Edit:

And finally hit "Pages":

Not sure why your form submissions aren't showing up in your base I'm afraid.  If you could provide a read-only invite link to duplicated copy of your base with no data in it I could take a look at this for you!

Got the invite, thanks!  I just tried submitting the form in the Interface and a new record was created in "Road watch 360", is that the table you want the data to appear in?

Hmm, I just clicked "Publish Form" at the top right and it seemed to work fine.  May I know what issues you faced while trying to publish it?

Yeap, once a form is published the button will be greyed out until you make a change to the form
