Customize the sender name of your submission notification emails, so recipients can immediately recognize where the email is coming from, especially useful when managing multiple forms or brands. By default, PipedForm sends notification emails using the sender name Notifications. You can personalize this to reflect your form, brand, or business name, making your emails easier to recognize in a crowded inbox.

Customizing Submission Notification Sender Name

You can set the sender name through the dashboard or directly from your form.

1. Set via Dashboard

Go to your form’s Settings page, then customize the “Sender Name” field to fit your needs.

2. Set via Form

The “Sender Name” setting in the dashboard will be ignored if you use this method. To set it this way, simply add a field with the attribute name="_senderName" and a value attribute containing the sender name you want to use.
<input type="hidden" name="_senderName" value="Contact Form Notifications" />

Example

<form action="https://pipedform.com/f/{form_id}" method="POST">
  <input name="name" required />
  <input name="email" type="email" required />
  <input type="hidden" name="_senderName" value="Contact Form Notifications" />

  <button type="submit">Submit</button>
</form>
As a result, notification emails for this form will be sent using the sender name Contact Form Notifications instead of PipedForm’s default.
Notes:
  • If neither the dashboard setting nor the _senderName field is set, PipedForm will default to using Notifications as the sender name.
  • The _senderName field takes precedence over the sender name set in the dashboard.
