Form Builder offers thirteen field types, covering most common survey, questionnaire, and paid-submission needs. Every type except File and Payment (Stripe) is available on every plan, including Free, those two require a Plus or Creator plan, see "Free, Plus, and Creator plans compared."
- Short Text, a single-line text answer.
- Email, a single-line answer with an email-shaped input.
- Long Text, a multi-line text answer.
- Number, a numeric answer.
- Checkbox, a single yes/no toggle, with its own description text (e.g. "I agree to the terms").
- Multiple Choice, pick exactly one from a list of options you define.
- Checkboxes, pick any number from a list of options you define.
- Dropdown, pick exactly one from a list, shown as a select menu instead of a list of radio buttons, useful once a question has many options.
- Rating, a 1-to-N scale (you choose the top number, 2 to 10) rendered as clickable numbered buttons.
- Date, a date picker.
- File, lets a respondent upload a file (image or document, up to 10MB), stored alongside their submission.
- Payment (Stripe), charges a fixed price through your own connected Stripe account before the submission is recorded, see "Collecting a paid submission."
- Section Break, not a question, a heading (with optional supporting text) that divides the form into parts.
Options-based fields
Multiple Choice, Checkboxes, and Dropdown all use the same Options list in the inspector, add, edit, or remove an option's own label there, at least 2 options are expected for these to make sense.
Tip: Marking a field Required only affects the published form's own validation, it won't let a respondent submit past it empty, Section Break and Payment both ignore this setting entirely, neither is a question with a typed answer.
