The Pexels integration unlocks a stock-photo tab in the Studio cover picker. Search landscape photos, click one, and Flex Forms downloads it into your form’s design storage (with photographer credit metadata).

Setup

1

Get an API key

Sign in at Pexels → API → create a key for your organization.
2

Connect in Flex Forms

Open IntegrationsPexels, paste the API key, enable the integration, and save. The connection test must succeed before Studio unlocks search.
3

Use in Studio

Open a form → cover picker → Pexels tab → search → click a photo. The image is imported as a normal cover asset.

Notes

  • Pexels is a platform integration (like Mapbox), not a per-submission feed.
  • Photos are copied into your app storage so public forms do not hotlink Pexels forever.
  • Respect Pexels guidelines when using photos commercially.
  • If search fails with an auth error, rotate the API key in Integrations and save again.
