Your Bug Report Form, ready to paste.

HTML by default — the same field set also renders as React, Next.js, PHP, and cURL in your dashboard. Every variant posts to the same /api/submit endpoint. Replace YOUR_ACCESS_KEY with the key from your dashboard; that's the only edit.

How to add it

How to add a Bug Report Form to your site.

To add a Bug Report Form to your site you need three things: a free splitforms access key, the HTML snippet above, and your key pasted into it. No backend, database, or CAPTCHA library — the form posts to one URL and every submission lands in your inbox and dashboard.

Structure the report

Required: what happened, what you expected, steps to reproduce. Optional: browser, OS, device, URL where it occurred. Most templates auto-detect browser/OS via JS so the user doesn't have to fill them.

Screenshot upload

Pro file upload — drag-and-drop a screenshot or screen recording. Multi-file accepted. Image attachments arrive on the email and via webhook with signed URLs.

Webhook into Linear / GitHub

Lands as a Linear issue or GitHub issue with the structured report as the body and the screenshot embedded. Engineer opens, reproduces, fixes — no triage thread needed.

What's included

What's in this Bug Report Form template?

Bug reports without reproduction steps waste hours of triage. The form structures the report — what happened, what was expected, steps to reproduce, browser / OS / device, screenshot. Screenshot upload is critical: 'the page broke' tells you nothing; a screenshot of the broken state tells you everything. Webhook the structured report into Linear or GitHub Issues so it lands as a triageable ticket, not a Slack message that scrolls away. For SaaS teams the time saved is huge — instead of a 4-message back-and-forth gathering basic context, the engineer opens the issue and starts debugging. Screenshot upload (Pro) · webhooks into Linear / GitHub Issues / Slack.

  • Bug report — 5 ready-made fields
  • HTML, JS, React, PHP, and cURL outputs
  • One POST endpoint, no SDK — honeypot and classifier, no CAPTCHA

Questions

Bug Report Form questions.

View all FAQs
Should I auto-detect browser / OS?

Yes — JavaScript can read navigator.userAgent and pre-fill hidden fields with browser name, version, OS, and screen size. The user doesn't see them; the engineer gets them. Saves 90% of 'what browser are you on?' replies.

Can I integrate with Linear / GitHub / Sentry?

Yes — webhook the JSON. Linear and GitHub both accept inbound issue creation via API or Zapier. Sentry doesn't accept user-reported bugs as events but you can webhook to a Slack channel where the on-call engineer triages and creates the Sentry issue manually.

How do I prevent abuse / spam in bug reports?

Public bug-report forms attract spam — hidden honeypot plus splitforms' classifier catches most. Require an email field; bots filling random emails get filtered by the classifier. For severe abuse, gate the form behind a logged-in user session.

What about screen recordings — too big to upload?

Short screen recordings can exceed the 5 MB per-file cap quickly. For videos, capture a Loom / CleanShot link in the message field instead of asking for direct upload. Loom links open inline on most email clients and triage tools.
