Using Forms in Yapi Leap (our new web app)? 🤔 In that case, looks like you're in the wrong place. Instead, go to the corresponding topic in our
Leap Help Center:

Within YAPI, you can create pre-set packages of forms for your patients to fill out online.  When you create a package, YAPI generates a website link that you can include in an email template or add to your website for patients to access easily.  Below, you'll learn how to create new packages of forms that your patients can access online.

Note: During installation, your installer always creates new patient form packages to get you started.  These include our Patient Information, Medical History, Dental History, Insurance, and HIPAA Privacy Acknowledgement forms.

  7. Optional: To change the order that forms appear for your patients, click a form you want to move within the yellow This Package section and drag it up or down within the list.

  8. Click Save.

  9. Optional: Once the package saves, an Online Package Link window appears with the link to this package.  Select:

    • Launch to open the online form and preview it.
    • Email to send an email with the link to this package.
