Copilot: Forms and comments

Download Markdown

Open Copilot in the site admin and describe the result you want. Use the tables below to check the requests in this area, their approval steps and their available Undo.

Checked against the product’s code on 7 November 2026.

Native form definitions, submission access and notification delivery are separate requests. Reading or preparing a submission export does not place all of its submitted data in chat. The download requires sign in and checks the person’s permission to read submissions again.

Sent notification emails cannot be recalled. Erasing a submission has no automatic Undo. Deleting a form offers Undo, which restores its definition; its stored submissions are kept. Comment operations include EmDash’s own content management features.

In the tables, Yes under approval means a separate approval is required before applying the request. Available under Undo means the request can be reversed. The specific receipt must offer Undo; it can be limited by the input, later changes or the state that was saved. No means this request provides no automatic Undo. Reading a fact has nothing to undo.

These are plain-language descriptions of requests, not text you must type exactly. Your role, configured connections and site capabilities determine which requests are available. See How copilot requests are governed.

Creating a form does not need an approval card, but it does not save an email address typed into chat. Ask the copilot to add the address afterwards. Its Update this form? card names the new recipients before you choose Update form. The existing Site admin recipient can remain; it uses the site’s configured admin address. The card flags a new address you did not write in the conversation. Creating the form keeps its Undo.
