    Content > Forms.
  2. Create or edit a form.
  3. In the form's Fields tab, click the Fields drop-down menu.

       •   First Name
       •   Last Name
       •   Email
       •   GoToWebinar

Note: Do not make the GoToWebinar field hidden.

Once a form is created, be aware that changes to existing webinar names in GoToWebinar will require re-saving the form in SharpSpring to reflect the changes in the live version of the form.
