Configuring booking form submission actions
Submission actions control what happens when a customer submits a booking form — validation, resource assignment, redirect behavior, and the calendar event that gets created.
TL;DR
Access: Edit booking form → On submission button. Configure: Field validation (always enable), Assign booked resource to lead (yes for follow-up workflows), Redirect on success (stay / URL / internal page). Resulting calendar event: set title, location, and description using placeholders — include lead contact info, %lead_link_raw% (direct lead profile link), and %page[page-slug,url]% (upload/confirmation page links) in the description.
4 things to configure
Field validation
Apply field rejection rules: Yes — validates required fields before submission (always recommended). Show rejection message box: Yes — shows specific error messages to users when validation fails. The form submits via Ajax, so no page reload occurs. Test by submitting incomplete forms to verify the validation messages appear correctly.
Resource assignment
Assign booked resource to lead: Enable when the booked consultant/technician/room should be linked to the lead for follow-up automations or manual workflows. This allows automations to reference %assigned_person_*% placeholders and filter/search leads by assigned resource. Disable for facility/room bookings where no follow-up is needed.
Redirect on success
Stay on page — for embedded forms where navigation would disrupt UX. Redirect to URL — for external confirmation page. Redirect to web page — for a Hubhus confirmation page with booking details, upload links, or next-step instructions. Use redirect when you want to show detailed post-booking info or track conversions.
Calendar event: title, location, description
Title: Keep concise — e.g. Consultation: %lead_name% or %event_service_names% - %lead_city%. Location: Auto or %lead_full_address% for on-site jobs. Description: include <a href="%lead_link_raw%">Go to customer</a>, upload page link, phone, comments. Color: Auto (resource-based) or fixed color per service type.
