Add Images and Videos to a monday.com Form
Published on September 24, 2026
A form full of text fields works fine until you need to show something instead of describing it. A product form needs the actual product photo next to the question asking which variant someone wants. A training sign-up needs the instructional diagram it’s asking people to confirm they’ve read. An event form does better with a 30-second preview clip than another paragraph of copy.
Whether you can do that depends on which tool built the form, and how literally you mean “add an image” — a logo at the top of the page is a different capability than a picture attached to a specific question.
Quick answer
- WorkForms supports a header logo and rich-text descriptions (form description, question description, content blocks) that can hold JPG/PNG images, but there’s no drag-and-drop upload for those images — pasting one in currently means embedding an HTML image link, and simple copy-paste is an open feature request.
- WorkForms has no video embedding inside a form. monday.com’s YouTube Widget embeds video on dashboards and boards, not on WorkForms, and embedding files or media in a form is an open community request.
- FormFlow includes dedicated Image Embed and Video Embed fields you place anywhere in the form like any other field — upload an image or paste a URL, or embed from YouTube, Vimeo, or a direct video URL.
- Install FormFlow to drop a product photo or a walkthrough video into your next form.
What WorkForms Supports Today
WorkForms’ branding options live under the Logo & header tab of the form’s Design panel: upload an image, crop it, set alt text, and control header alignment and logo size, per monday.com’s Design your WorkForm support article. That covers a single logo at the top of the form, not an image tied to an individual question.
Below the header, WorkForms’ rich-text areas — the welcome page, form description, question descriptions, and the “Thank you” screen — support formatting including JPG/PNG images, and a separate content blocks feature (documented in Organize your WorkForm with content blocks and pages ) lets you insert rich-text sections between questions. Getting an image into either one is the catch: the monday.com community has an open request for pasting images with Ctrl+V , and the documented workaround discussed in the community is embedding an HTML image tag pointing at a hosted file rather than uploading directly.
Video is further behind. There’s no video field or embed option inside a WorkForm itself — monday.com’s YouTube Widget plays video on a dashboard or board view, and a separate open request asks to embed files in a workform at all.
And a dedicated per-question image field — something you attach directly to one question, not the page description — doesn’t exist yet either. It’s one of the longer-running WorkForms feature requests, showing up across multiple threads: Add pictures to monday forms , WorkForm Graphics , Ability on Forms to add images to support the question , and Add an Image to A Form .
FormFlow’s Image Embed and Video Embed Fields
FormFlow treats images and video as their own field types, documented in Field Types & Form Fields, which you place anywhere in the form’s layout rather than only in a header or a description block:
- Image Embed: upload an image or paste an image URL, with a caption or description, and responsive sizing that adapts to the form’s width. Use it for product photos, a logo repeated mid-form, or a visual guide next to the question it explains.
- Video Embed: embed from YouTube, Vimeo, or a direct video URL, with a responsive player and configurable autoplay and controls. Use it for a product demo, a short tutorial, or a welcome message before the first question.
Because both are standalone fields, you can put a product image directly above the variant-selection question it illustrates, or a 30-second explainer video between the intro and the first question, instead of routing everything through a single page description.
Side-by-Side
| Capability | WorkForms | FormFlow |
|---|---|---|
| Logo at the top of the form | Yes (Logo & header) | Yes (theming settings) |
| Image inside a description or content block | Yes, via HTML embed workaround | Yes, native to rich text |
| Dedicated image field tied to one question | Not documented (open feature request) | Yes (Image Embed field) |
| Video inside the form | Not documented (open feature request) | Yes (Video Embed field: YouTube, Vimeo, direct) |
| Upload-and-drop image (no HTML needed) | Not documented for descriptions | Yes |
Setting Up an Image or Video Field
- Open the form in the FormFlow builder and add a new field where you want the media to appear.
- Choose Image Embed or Video Embed from the field library.
- For an image, upload a file or paste an image URL, then add a caption if the image needs a short label.
- For a video, paste the YouTube, Vimeo, or direct video URL, then set autoplay and controls to match how you want it to play.
- Preview the form to confirm the media is responsive at the width your respondents will actually see it on, especially on mobile.
When a Logo Is Enough
If all you need is your company logo above the form, WorkForms’ header logo setting covers that on its own — you don’t need a separate app for branding alone. The gap shows up once a form needs media tied to a specific question, or a video anywhere in the flow, which is where a page-level header or description can’t help.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I paste an image directly into a WorkForms question description?
Not with a simple paste as of this writing. The monday.com community has an open request for Ctrl+V image pasting; the current path is embedding an HTML image tag that points at a hosted image file.
Does WorkForms support video anywhere in a form?
No dedicated video field or embed option has been documented for WorkForms itself. monday.com’s YouTube Widget plays video on dashboards and boards, and embedding media in a form is an open community request.
Do FormFlow’s image and video fields require external hosting?
Video embeds point at a URL from YouTube, Vimeo, or a direct video file. Image embeds can be uploaded directly or referenced by URL, so you don’t need separate hosting for a simple product photo.
Is a single logo enough, or do I need per-question images?
That depends on the form. A one-time announcement or simple intake form is usually fine with a header logo. Anything explaining a specific choice — product variants, a diagram someone has to confirm, a step in a process — benefits from an image or video attached to that exact question.
