§ 00Vue + Consultation Requestplatform-specific integration guide

Why Vue developers choose splitforms for consultation request

Vue's reactivity system is great for UI state but doesn't help with form delivery — you still need somewhere to POST the data. The consultation request on this page uses Vue's <code>@submit.prevent</code> to intercept the form event, builds a <code>FormData</code> object, and fires a <code>fetch</code> POST to splitforms. Works identically in Vue 2 (Options API) and Vue 3 (Composition API with <code>ref</code>). Because it's just a standard POST, it works with Nuxt, Vite, and any Vue bundler without a custom plugin or module.

§ 00Quick answerHTML · lead capture

Yes — this is the shortest safe path for Vue.

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

Paste the HTML version, then replace YOUR_ACCESS_KEY.

Generate, embed, receive.

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

STEP 01GENERATE

Generate a free splitforms key

STEP 02EMBED

Paste the consultation request into your Vue project

Drop the form snippet into a Vue 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.

§ 03cVue production notesnative path · deploy · gotchas

What changes when this consultation request lives in Vue.

These notes come from the Vue platform registry and are rendered on this template page so crawlers see the framework-specific answer without opening a separate guide.

without splitforms

Vue ships nothing form-related beyond v-model for two-way binding. To deliver a submission anywhere, you write the same backend stack as React: an Express/Nitro/Hono route, an email provider, a database, spam filtering. Nuxt narrows the gap with /server/api routes, but you're still operating the route. Pinia/Vuex don't help — they're for client state, not network. The Vue ecosystem has FormKit and VeeValidate for validation UX, but neither delivers submissions. Splitforms slots in as the missing endpoint: any Vue 2 / Vue 3 / Nuxt setup posts a FormData to one URL, gets { success: true } back, done.

deploy notes

Vue + Vite produces a static bundle that deploys anywhere. For Nuxt, every Nitro preset (Vercel, Netlify, Node, Cloudflare, static, AWS Lambda) works identically because the form posts client-side. On Cloudflare Pages with the Nuxt Cloudflare preset, avoid proxying through /server/api — the fetch round-trip eats the 10ms CPU budget on the free tier; post directly to splitforms. Vite-only (non-Nuxt) projects must use VITE_SPLITFORMS_KEY or env vars are silently undefined client-side. Nuxt uses runtimeConfig.public.splitformsKey. Both inline the value into the bundle, so domain-lock the key in the splitforms dashboard.

Vue gotcha

ref() doesn't auto-unwrap inside a template handler

If you write status === 'loading' inside <script setup> it works because Vue auto-unwraps refs in templates — but inside a function you need status.value. Mixing the two is the #1 cause of "why isn't my button disabling?" bugs in Vue contact forms.

Vue gotcha

v-model and FormData read different sources

If you bind inputs with v-model="name" to a ref and then build new FormData(e.target), FormData reads the DOM — which Vue keeps in sync — so it works. But if you bind a computed value and the input doesn't have a name attribute, FormData drops it silently. Always set name="…" on every input.

Vue gotcha

@submit fires before .prevent unless you spell it right

Vue's event modifier syntax is @submit.prevent="onSubmit". People often write @submit="onSubmit" and then forget to call e.preventDefault() inside the handler — the page reloads and the fetch is cancelled mid-flight.

Vue gotcha

Vite env vars need the VITE_ prefix or they're undefined at build

Reading import.meta.env.SPLITFORMS_KEY returns undefined unless you rename it to VITE_SPLITFORMS_KEY (Vite) or expose it via runtimeConfig (Nuxt). Vite intentionally hides anything without the prefix to prevent leaking server secrets.

PATTERN A

Pattern A — `<script setup>` with status ref

Modern Vue 3 SFC, half the boilerplate of Options API, full reactivity. status is a single ref<'idle' | 'loading' | 'ok' | 'err'>. Use the same wiring for the consultation request fields on this page.

pattern-a.txtvue17 lines
01<script setup>
02import { ref } from "vue";
03const status = ref("idle");
04async function onSubmit(e) {
05 status.value = "loading";
06 const fd = new FormData(e.target);
07 fd.append("access_key", import.meta.env.VITE_SPLITFORMS_KEY);
08 const r = await fetch("https://splitforms.com/api/submit", { method: "POST", body: fd });
09 status.value = (await r.json()).success ? "ok" : "err";
10}
11</script>
12<template>
13 <form @submit.prevent="onSubmit">
14 <input name="email" type="email" required />
15 <button :disabled="status === 'loading'">Send</button>
16 </form>
17</template>
PATTERN B

Pattern B — composable for reuse across forms

Wrap the splitforms POST in a useSplitforms() composable. Multiple forms (contact, newsletter, demo) share one implementation. Test once, ship everywhere. Use the same wiring for the consultation request fields on this page.

pattern-b.txtvue14 lines
01// composables/useSplitforms.js
02import { ref } from "vue";
03export function useSplitforms() {
04 const status = ref("idle");
05 async function submit(formEl, formName) {
06 status.value = "loading";
07 const fd = new FormData(formEl);
08 fd.append("access_key", import.meta.env.VITE_SPLITFORMS_KEY);
09 fd.append("form-name", formName);
10 const r = await fetch("https://splitforms.com/api/submit", { method: "POST", body: fd });
11 status.value = (await r.json()).success ? "ok" : "err";
12 }
13 return { status, submit };

§ 06Questions6 answered

Consultation Request on VueFAQ.

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

01Does this consultation request work on Vue?
Yes. The form is plain HTML with a single POST endpoint, so it runs on any Vue site without server-side code, plugins, or SDKs. Drop the snippet into a Vue page or component and submissions land in your splitforms dashboard.
02How much does the consultation request cost on Vue?
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 (full name, email, phone, topic…) — add, remove, or rename any of them. Splitforms accepts whatever fields you POST.
04How does spam protection work on the consultation request?
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 Vue as on any other framework.
05Can I send the consultation request 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 Vue 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.
