# Gating Content with Forms

Gated content requires visitors to submit a form to access resources, such as a white paper. It’s a great way to convert visitors to prospects. You can gate content that’s hosted with Account Engagement and content hosted elsewhere.

### Required Editions

<table class="slds-table slds-table_bordered slds-max-medium-table_stacked slds-m-bottom_small edition"><colgroup><col></colgroup><tbody><tr class=""><td class="slds-cell-wrap" style="vertical-align:top;">Available in: <span>All Account Engagement Editions</span></td></tr></tbody></table>

## Autoresponder Email

To make sure that a prospect provides a valid email address before granting access to content, use an autoresponder email to confirm the address. If the visitor doesn’t provide a valid email address, the visitor doesn’t receive the content. To use this method, create an email template that includes a link to your content. On your form or form handler, add a Send Autoresponder Email completion action, and select the email template.

## Redirect on Form Completion

To redirect a prospect to the content upon form completion, include a link in your form’s Thank You content. You can also redirect the prospect directly to the URL of the content by enabling **Redirect the prospect instead of showing the form’s Thank You Content**. Enable the setting in the form builder or the landing page builder. If your form isn’t embedded on an Account Engagement landing page, enable this setting from the form builder.
