# Provide Web Forms with Web-to-Case

Let customers submit support requests on your website with a simple, customizable form. Use Web-to-Case to automatically turn support inquiries into cases.

### Required Editions

Setting up a web form works this way.

- Step 1: Set your case submission preferences in Setup.
- Step 2: Decide which case fields to include in your form—for example, Contact Name, Phone, or a custom field.
- Step 3: Using a tool in Setup, generate the form in HTML.
- Step 4: Add the HTML to your website to make the form visible to customers.

When a customer submits the form, they receive an automatic email letting them know you’ve received their request. You can use a template to customize the text of this email. At the same time, a case is created in your org to track the request. Whenever possible, the case is automatically linked to the relevant contact and account based on the customer’s email address.

With a Web-to-Case form, you can generate up to 5,000 cases per day, or more if you request a higher limit. That’s 5,000 fewer calls to your support team! You can also add reCAPTCHA v2 to your web form to filter out spam cases. Note that Web-to-Case doesn’t support attachments or rich text fields.
