# Hosting A Web Tipline

A Web tipline is a publicly accessible web page with a form for entering a tip. Use the following instructions to complete the process of [Configuring Tipline Properties](/getting-started/setting-up-tiplines/configuring-tipline-properties.md).

If modifying an existing tipline, click the edit link associated with the desired tipline as shown on [the "Manage Tiplines" Page](/getting-started/setting-up-tiplines.md#the-manage-tiplines-page). It will bring up an "Edit Tipline" form similar to the one shown below. If you are in the process of creating a new tipline, you may already see a [form called "New Tipline"](/getting-started/setting-up-tiplines/creating-a-new-tipline.md#the-new-tipline-form) which is similar and will serve the same purpose.

#### Choose A Name

The name you provide will distinguish this tipline from others listed on [the "Manage Tiplines" page for your organization](/getting-started/setting-up-tiplines.md#the-manage-tiplines-page).

#### Identifier

The tipline will be presented as a publicly accessible web page with a form for entering a tip. The identifier specifies a URL path component that will be appended to

&#x20;   <mark style="background-color:blue;"><https://www.junkipedia.org/tips/></mark>

to create a URL for your web form. For example, the identifier <mark style="background-color:blue;">fakenews</mark> will cause your web form to be hosted at

&#x20;   <mark style="background-color:blue;"><https://www.junkipedia.org/tips/fakenews></mark>

Just to be clear, you would not insert this entire URL into the identifier field. The identifier would simply be

&#x20;    <mark style="background-color:blue;">fakenews</mark>&#x20;

in this example.

#### Heading

The heading identifies your tipline in a way that is appropriate for the tipline type. For example, if the heading is "myheading", a web form tipline type would show "Submit a tip to myheading" at the top of the form that will be shown to the user when adding a tip.

#### Custom Response

This message will be shown to the user to acknowledge that their submitted tip has been received.

#### Custom Merged Response

Leave this field blank for this type of tipline.

#### Redirect URL

If you want a successful web form submission to redirect to a custom URL, enter it here. Otherwise, leave this field blank.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.junkipedia.org/getting-started/setting-up-tiplines/configuring-tipline-properties/hosting-a-web-tipline.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
