Email from Google reCapcha: You aren't protected

Hi, I’ve received an email from Google regarding the reCapcha on my forms. It says the forms aren’t protected as the reCapcha hasn’t been verified on the backend. I’ve read their instructions for what to do, but I don’t understand it.

I thought all the backend stuff was taken care of by Webflow, so I don’t know what I need to do to fix this.

Thanks in advance for your help… I’m hoping somebody can help me.

Just a possibility, did you verify that the email is from google and isn’t phishing? Have you noticed that it works strange, or does all seem OK?

I might be totally wrong, but figured I’d check anyways.

recaptcha is not solution as it can be easily bypassed. When you search internet you can find many sources about this topic. :man_shrugging:

Yes, it’s definitely from Google, and it shows as unprotected in the Google reCapcha console. There are instructions how to authenticate on the backend, but I just don’t understand how to do it.

Webflow insists on a reCaptcha on every form. :person_shrugging:

I am also, having the same issue and do not understand the instructions on how to verify the reCAPTCHA token. Anyone know how to do that for our webflow sites?

When you add the recaptcha tokens under site settings and republish, that’s it, Webflow does the rest.

Make certain you’re using the correct version of recaptcha, Webflow supports an older one. If you are generating keys for the wrong version it won’t work.

Make certain to add the recaptcha element to every Webflow-handled form.
