The Text field is used for capturing various types of textual data. It can be configured to handle anything from short, single-line inputs like names or titles to longer, multi-line entries such as descriptions or comments.
Set a predefined text that will appear in the Text field when the form is first loaded.
This can be used to provide a sample response, instructions, or common data that users might enter. If left blank, the field will start empty.
Simplify data entry by allowing users to quickly populate the Text field with specific data types. There are three options include:
Date Time: Inserts a button that opens a calendar, allowing users to pick a date and time to automatically fill the field.
Location: Adds a location search button, letting users select a location from a map and automatically populate the field with the selected address.
Barcode: Includes a barcode scanning option, enabling users to scan a barcode and fill the field with the associated data.
Determines whether the Text field can accommodate multiple lines of text.
When enabled, users can enter longer responses that may require paragraph formatting, such as descriptions or comments.
If disabled, the field will remain a single-line input, limiting the amount of visible text at once.
Enable this setting so data entered into this field is encrypted and stored securely.
This is crucial for fields where sensitive information, such as passwords or confidential data, might be entered.
For the text input, you can set:
Min length: the minimum number of characters entered as the input value.
Max length: the maximum number of characters entered as the input value.
Content type: the specific type of text value you want to collect (plain text, phone number, or email).
Content type validation
Plain text: any value without special requirements for characters.
Email: the input value should at least contain a valid email tag such as @gmail.com or @[company].net in case of organization email.
Phone number: the input value can contain the + symbol with the regional phone code, but must not contain alphanumeric characters or special ones like @, # or %.
Examples of valid values for phone numbers: +123-456-789 or + 123 456 789 or +123456789
