Form Builder
The form builder provides a visual interface for creating and customizing interactive forms and surveys with three main panels that work together to design your questions and collect responses.
The Three Builder Panels
Input List
The left panel displays all form fields or questions in order. Add new fields, reorder existing ones by dragging, and select fields for editing. Welcome messages appear at the top, while the thank you message is always last.
Live Preview
The center panel shows exactly how your form or survey will appear to users in real-time. Click on any field in the input list to see its preview, including validation states and interactive elements.

Best Practices
Choose Appropriate Input Types
Match field types to the information you need - use single choice for categories, multiple choice for features, and numeric scales for ratings.
Keep Forms Focused
Limit forms to essential questions only. Long forms have lower completion rates.
Use Clear Question Text
Write clear, specific questions that users understand immediately.
Configure Validation Wisely
Only mark fields as required when absolutely necessary.
Test Form Preview
Always preview your form before publishing to ensure it looks and functions correctly.
