## Custom intake forms
38+
39+
Plane provides a default intake form structure for quick setup. However, if you need more control over what information you collect, you can build custom forms using your project's [work item types](/core-concepts/issues/issue-types).
40+
41+
When you build forms with work item types, you design the form around a specific type's properties.
42+
43+
This approach lets you:
44+
- Build forms that match the structure of your work item types
45+
- Select exactly which properties appear on the form.
46+
- Create multiple forms for different purposes, each with its own structure.
47+
- Collect the right information based on what users are submitting.
48+
49+
### Create a custom form
50+
![custom-intake-form](https://media.docs.plane.so/intake/custom-intake-forms.webp#hero-br)
51+
52+
1. In your project settings, go to **Features > Intake > Forms**.
53+
2. Click **+** next to **Create Forms using work item types**.
54+
3. Enter a form title and select the work item type it should use to create the form.
55+
3. Under **Properties**, choose which custom fields from that work item type to include.
56+
4. Use **Preview** to see how the form appears to external users.
57+
5. Click **Save** when you're ready to generate the form URL.
58+
59+
Each custom form gets its own unique URL that you can share. Users filling out the form will only see the fields you've selected, keeping their experience focused and straightforward.
