### Overview

Threadly **Forms** capture information from people without them leaving Slack. Use them for feedback, NPS, sign-ups, intake requests, internal surveys and quick polls. Attach a form to any message sent to channels or by DM.

### Two ways to show a form

|                  | Popup (Modal) Form                                | In-Message Form                                            |
| ---------------- | ------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------- |
| **How it looks** | A button on the message opens the form in a popup | Questions appear right in the message as buttons and menus |
| **Best for**     | Longer forms and detailed answers                 | Polls, surveys and quick responses                         |
| **Field types**  | All                                               | Radio Buttons, Static Select and Text Input                |
| **Live results** | —                                                 | Optional vote counts that update in the message            |

### Field types
