§ 00Vercel + Bug Reportplatform-specific integration guide

Why Vercel developers choose splitforms for bug report

Vercel ships Next.js sites at the edge with zero-config deployments, but it doesn't provide form handling as a service. Next.js Server Actions can process form submissions server-side, but you still need SMTP for email delivery, spam filtering, and storage. The bug report on this page posts client-side directly to splitforms, so you don't need a serverless function or an API route. Your Vercel deployment stays a static export — faster cold starts, lower edge compute costs, and no server-side secrets to manage in environment variables.

§ 00Quick answerHTML · support

Yes — this is the shortest safe path for Vercel.

Use the HTML snippet on this page, keep the bug report fields visible in your Vercel UI, and let splitforms handle delivery, spam filtering, storage, and webhooks.

best implementation

Paste the HTML version, then replace YOUR_ACCESS_KEY.

The posted payload contains short summary, severity, browser & os, steps to reproduce, your email (so we can follow up). Required fields are short summary, severity, steps to reproduce and your email (so we can follow up).

native vercel reality

Vercel can render the form markup, but it still needs a backend endpoint, email delivery, spam checks, and webhook routing before submissions are useful.

use case fit

User-reported bugs are signal — but only if the report has steps-to-reproduce and a screenshot. The form forces the structure, then files the issue automatically.

§ 03Setup3 steps · 60 seconds · zero config

Generate, embed, receive.

Three actions stand between you and your first bug report submission. None of them require a backend, a database, or a CAPTCHA library.

STEP 01GENERATE

Generate a free splitforms key

Create your form

key=sk_live_••••••••

STEP 02EMBED

Paste the bug report into your Vercel project

Drop the form snippet into a Vercel page, component, or layout. Replace YOUR_ACCESS_KEY with the key from your dashboard. The form action is a hard-coded URL — no env vars or build-time wiring needed.

§ 03bBug Report Form (Issue Submission)template-specific playbook

The reason this bug report exists.

Screenshot upload (Pro) · webhooks into Linear / GitHub Issues / Slack.

why it matters

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.

route the submission

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.

§ 06Questions9 answered

Bug Report on Vercel — FAQ.

Direct answers, no marketing fluff. Missing one? Email hello@splitforms.com.

01Does this bug report work on Vercel?

Yes. The form is plain HTML with a single POST endpoint, so it runs on any Vercel site without server-side code, plugins, or SDKs. Drop the snippet into a Vercel page or component and submissions land in your splitforms dashboard.

02How much does the bug report cost on Vercel?

Free for 500 submissions per month — no credit card, no trial. Pro is $5/mo for 5,000 submissions, and there's a one-time $59 3-year plan (15,000 submissions/mo for 36 months). The same pricing applies regardless of which framework hosts the form.

03Can I customize the fields?

Yes. The template ships with sensible defaults (short summary, severity, browser & os, steps to reproduce…) — add, remove, or rename any of them. Splitforms accepts whatever fields you POST.

04How does spam protection work on the bug report?

A hidden honeypot field catches dumb bots, and a tuned classifier scores the rest. You only see real submissions in your dashboard. No CAPTCHA, no friction for human users — and it works the same on Vercel as on any other framework.

05Can I send the bug report submissions to Slack or Discord?

Yes. Webhooks are available on Starter and above, with auto-formatted payloads for Slack, Discord, and WhatsApp (via CallMeBot). Or send raw signed JSON to any URL — Zapier, n8n, your own server. Configure in the splitforms dashboard.

06Will it work on a static Vercel site?

Yes — the form posts directly to splitforms from the browser, so no server is involved. Works on Vercel, Netlify, GitHub Pages, Cloudflare Pages, S3, or any plain Apache host.

07Should 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.

08Can 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.

09How 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.
