Forms and form fields

Forms are detailed tasks required to complete a step. The form field might be to enter customer address or select a meal type from a dropdown. Each step can consist of multiple mandatory or optional form fields.

To cater to all types of data you might want to gather, there are multiple form types. For example, if you want to report a bug, You might want a user to enter a summary (short text input form field), describe a bug (long text input form field), select if the bug happened on mobile or desktop (radio form field), and possibly upload a screenshot (image upload form field).

This would be what the user sees when they fill in such a workflow instance:


Form configuration

You can work with form field configuration when you click on a step and add a form field.

To configure form fields, do the following:

  1. Go to Workflows > Edit workflow.
  2. Click Add step.
  3. Select Form.
  4. Click Add form field.
  5. Click the settings icon to add placeholders for fields or labels (step titles), and make the step optional.

Tip: By default form fields are required. If you want a field to be optional, you need to select Optional in the Settings.

There are also options to copy the form field ID, copy the form, move it (for example to a different step), and delete it.

Setting form conditions works in the same way as step conditions. For details, see Set conditions to a step
