How to Allow Creation of New Relations in My Form (Sub-form)?

You can now enable sub-forms for your relation fields, giving you more flexibility and access to advanced Pro features. This allows users to create new entries in the related database directly from your form.

Steps to enable relation creation:


Click the ⚙️ Settings icon next to your relation field.
On the right panel, under Creation Form, toggle Enable Relation Creation.
Select an existing form linked to the related database or create a new one.
Click Publish or Save to apply the changes.





This will generate a new sub-form for creating related items, accessible in your NoteForms dashboard. You can apply integrations and Pro features to it like any regular form.

Important Notes:


Ensure the related database is connected to your main database and shared with NoteForms.
If your relation field is not appearing, check this article:

⚠️ Sub-forms for relation creation only work with forms created after June 18, 2025.
