Text

This field is used to display static text on the form. You can use this field to provide the user with any important information or instructions on how to fill out the form. It can also be used to contain legal or disclaimer information that users must read and agree to.

Short Answer

This field lets users provide information using a single line text field. This field is best for capturing short responses from users (e.g. name, email, street address, etc.)

Long Answer

This field lets users provide multi-sentence responses. This field is best for capturing essays, long descriptions, and more.

Multiple Choice

This field presents a user with multiple answers and requires them to select one option. This field is best used when you want a user to choose between multiple choices.

Checkbox List

This field is similar to the multiple choice field in that it presents the user with multiple choices. However, unlike the multiple choice field where a user can only select one choice, the checkbox list field allows users to select all that applies.

Date Picker

This field lets users select a date (and optionally a time) using a drop down calendar.
