Step 1: Form selection

Simola analyzes your landing page and lists detected forms. For each form, you’ll typically see the action URL, method, and detected fields.

How forms are detected

Simola uses two approaches:

  • FormSense in a headless browser. This handles dynamic pages.

  • An HTML parser as a fallback for static markup.

This hybrid approach improves detection on complex pages. It also helps with script-rendered fields.

It can also help when forms live inside iframes, depending on how the page is built.

If no forms are found

  • Double-check the landing page URL.

  • Make sure the form is visible without login.

  • Add fields manually if you know them.

  • Contact Support if the page needs special handling.

Manual edits and scraping rules

You can add or edit field details. You can also apply scraping rules to:

  • Hide fields.

  • Override labels.

  • Set or add option lists.

  • Force required fields on or off.
