  • First you must edit your form and under the "form processing" tab - set the "spoof check" option to "no"

    Then you can build your link as follows:

    Code: 

    
index.php?option=com_fabrik&task=form.process&formid=1

    replace the 1 in "formid=1" with your form id.

    Then for each field you want to insert data into add '&tablename___elementname=value'

    e.g.

    Code: 

    
&contacts___name=rob

    Thus, for my example form my final 'add' link will look like this:

    HTML: 

    
<a href="index.php?option=com_fabrik&task=form.process&formid=1&contacts___name=rob">Add a contact</a>
