It’s no surprise that Creators want to own the relationship with their fans. Everyone from influencers to your favorite bloggers are creating newsletters to help grow their brands by creating more meaningful connections with their audience. To further empower creators, we have expanded the Web Stories page attachment functionality to support forms, so readers can submit their information and opt-in to receive future updates from their favorite brand or creator.
This component allows a reader to easily sign up for a newsletter, opt-in to text updates, or submit your info to learn more about a product or service. The experience was designed to be as seamless as possible. While reading a story a user can “swipe up”, or a tap on the call to action button to learn more. When the page attachment opens, a reader can complete the fields, submit their information, and then easily go back to finishing the story or reading a new one.
The amp-form extension allows you to create forms (<form>) to submit input fields in a Web Story. The amp-form extension also provides polyfills for some missing behaviors in browsers. For the full implementation guidance, review this resource.
