# Formspree

With [Formspree](https://formspree.io/) you can accept form submissions on your static site without needing a backend. It provides a number of [integration options](https://help.formspree.io/hc/en-us/articles/360053239754-Getting-started-with-projects), all of which you can use with Render.

## Using the Formspree Dashboard

To get started, create a Formspree account, [log into your dashboard](https://formspree.io/forms), and create a new *Dashboard Project*.

After you create a new form in your project, you'll get an endpoint URL to use as the `action` attribute in your form. Submissions will be directed to your Formspree account. This integration option does not require configuration changes to your Render service; simply set the `action` URL in your form.

## Using the Formspree CLI

You can use Formspree's CLI together with the Formspree React library to programmatically create and configure forms on every deploy.

Follow [Formspree's documentation](https://help.formspree.io/hc/en-us/articles/360053819114) to install their React library and CLI. To set up continuous deployment on Render, add the `FORMSPREE_DEPLOY_KEY` environment variable to your Render site and set the value to the deploy key in your [Formspree project settings](https://formspree.io/forms).

Install Formspree's CLI as a dependency using npm or yarn:
