Enable File Uploads

File uploads work automatically with your existing Kitoform endpoint. Just add the required attributes to your HTML form.

Two Simple Requirements

Add enctype attribute

Add enctype="multipart/form-data" to your form tag

Add file inputs

Use standard HTML file inputs - we handle the rest

Basic Example

Here's how to add file upload to any existing form:

<!-- Contact form with file attachment -->
<form action="https://connect.kitoform.com/f/YOUR_ENDPOINT_ID" 
      method="POST" 
      enctype="multipart/form-data">
  
  <input type="text" name="name" placeholder="Your name" required>
  <input type="email" name="email" placeholder="Your email" required>
  <textarea name="message" placeholder="Your message" required></textarea>
  
  <!-- File input - that's it! -->
  <input type="file" name="attachment" accept=".pdf,.doc,.jpg,.png">
  
  <button type="submit">Send Message</button>
</form>

That's it! Files are automatically uploaded, validated, and stored securely. You'll receive the download URLs in your form submission data.
