How to add reCAPTCHA to your site to prevent spam submissions

Last updated on 20 Feb, 2026

Step 1: Create your reCAPTCHA keys

Head here to create your reCAPTCHA:

https://www.google.com/recaptcha/admin/create

You'll see a screen that looks like the below. Here's how to fill out the form:

  1. Label: Enter a name for the set of reCAPTCHA keys you're about to generate

  2. reCAPTCHA type: Challenge (v2) -> "I'm not a robot" Checkbox

  3. Domains: Add the domain of your SmartDirectoryAI site

If your SmartDirectoryAI site is on a sub-domain, you should restrict the reCAPTCHA domain to the root domain only (do not include your subdomain). For example, our demo site is at demo.smartdirectory.ai. As you can see below, we restricted the domain to smartdirectory.ai.

reCAPTCHA not working?

Make sure you've selected Challenge (v2) and "I'm not a robot" Checkbox when creating your keys.
