As a block
In the editor under the form blocks. You drag it into a section, and it brings its own place with it.
A form in a shopping experience
The simplest route, and the only one where you decide yourself where the form sits.
Block or element
Both are called "Form Manager", and both show the same thing.
As an element
For when a section with the right layout already exists: you swap one of its elements for the form.
The element has one single setting: the form. Position, spacing and width come from the section, just like with any other block.

What ends up in the submission
A form from a shopping experience has no product or order reference.
In the history the context column stays empty. Form, sales channel, customer and date are still there, and so are the entered values.
Whoever needs that reference - "which article was the question about?" - places the form through an assignment rather than a block.
A form is not tied to a sales channel - the same form can be used in several shopping experiences and in several channels. The channel is only recorded on the submission.
