Migrate from Formspree

Create your forms in Formtorch

Sign in to app.formtorch.com . Create a project, then create one form for each Formspree form you’re migrating. Copy the endpoint URLs.

Update endpoint URLs

Replace every formspree.io endpoint with your Formtorch endpoint:

<!-- Before -->
<form action="https://formspree.io/f/abcdefgh" method="POST">
  <!-- After -->
  <form action="https://formtorch.com/f/YOUR_FORM_ID" method="POST"></form>
</form>

Update reserved field names

If you used Formspree’s _next redirect field or _gotcha honeypot, update them:

<!-- Before -->
<input type="hidden" name="_next" value="https://yoursite.com/thanks" />
<input type="text" name="_gotcha" style="display:none" />
 
<!-- After -->
<input type="hidden" name="_redirect" value="https://yoursite.com/thanks" />
<input
  type="text"
  name="_honeypot"
  style="display:none"
  tabindex="-1"
  autocomplete="off"
/>

Remove reCAPTCHA

If you were using Formspree’s reCAPTCHA integration, you can remove it. Formtorch’s TorchWarden spam filter runs automatically on every submission. No token, no extra JavaScript needed.

Remove any data-sitekey attributes, reCAPTCHA scripts, and g-recaptcha-response fields from your forms.

Set up email notifications

In each form’s settings, go to Notifications and add your email address. Formspree sent notifications to the email you registered with; in Formtorch you configure recipients per-form.

Export your old Formspree data

Before you switch over, download a CSV of existing Formspree submissions from your Formspree dashboard. Historical submissions cannot be transferred to Formtorch automatically.

Point your forms at the new endpoint

Once you’ve verified the new forms are working (send a test submission from the dashboard), update your live forms to use the Formtorch endpoint.
