Web to Lead documentation?

Hi all - I'm trying to find documentation for Web to Lead using forms and the leadCapture/save method.  I know this is an old method but I need to recreate such a service in a new instance of Marketo and they were originally created before my time.

I have a couple of things I want to verify, one of which is the form that's used: does it have to have the fields being passed as hidden fields with parameter values or can I use just a blank form?  I'm working with a vendor so I don't want to waste a lot of time testing things.

I believe they removed the documentation from the Developers site since it's encouraged to use the Forms 2.0 API (which I know you're familiar with).  But if you need to use this approach, the POST URL looks like this:

[yourdomain.com]/index.php/leadCapture/save2?FirstName=[FIRST]&LastName=[LAST}&Email=[EMAIL]&formid=1234&munchkinId=xxx-xxx-xxx

And no, your form does not need to contain any fields.

Thanks, Dan! My vendor is not familiar with the REST API with Marketo and says they can go live faster if we use this method. My hope is that it's not deprecated any time soon.
