File Uploads
Form backend with secure file uploads.
Accept PDFs, images, and documents through your HTML forms. Size limits, MIME filtering, and automated scanning keep your inbox safe.
How it works
Three steps to production forms.
Enable uploads
Configure upload settings in your form dashboard: size limit, allowed types, and scanning.
Add to your form
Set enctype='multipart/form-data' and add a file input.
Receive files
Submissions include secure download links for scanned attachments.
