Iterate.ai ET Application Form

The ET Application form gives our members the ability to collect information about emerging technologies by providing a way to create challenges and general questionairres. All of the questions are configurable, as is the overall user-experience and style. The documentation below is intended to provide a reference for how to customize the forms for any website.

For Members

To create a new ET Application form, first login to the Member's Admin Area to create new forms. Click "Create a Form", give the form a simple title and description, upon completion, provide the required API_KEY and FORM_ID to your development team who will be implementing the form. Not to worry, you can always get this later by looking at the form summary. Additional information may be found in the Member's Admin Area FAQ.

For Developers

Please reference our official documentation on Github. Feel free to fork, and extend as needed - our simply source the latest version from our CDN.
