This is the name you see on the Forms home page where your forms are listed.  We recommend changing the name to make it more meaningful than the arbitrary name assigned when you create it, but keep in mind it is a working name only, so users will not see it. Form names longer than 60 characters will be truncated.

Description

By default all form descriptions say, “Edit the form It is recommended that you name your form/flows using characters that are suitable for filenames. Following the POSIX filename standard (A–Z a–z 0–9 . _ - ) will ensure it works.

Description

By default all form descriptions say, “Edit the form to change this description,” but you can change this if you wish.  The description appears as a tooltip when you mouse over the area just to the right of the form’s share icon on Forms home page.  You also see this description when you view individual submission documents.

There is a now a form property called Element Name. The default value for the field is form. The root element name in the submission xml of a form created from the designer palette is determined by the value in this field. It needs to be a valid XML element name. The designer can now change the name of the form without impacting the element name.  Form schema and the generated xml file show the element name.  If you want a form name with international characters, you must enter the international chars into the Element Name field. When the form name is updated, and 'Element Name' is kept the same, previous submissions can be initialized successfully.  When 'Element Name' is updated, previous submissions cannot be initialized.

Setup Key/Saved Fields

This setting controls which fields are saved to the built-in submissions repository. By default, all your data is saved as an XML document. This is the most efficient way to store/access your data both in terms of speed as well as storage. However, if you prefer to view your data via the submissions user interface, you can choose which fields are saved in addition to the XML data. See submissions data for more information on making this choice. Note that this could incur significant performance overhead and will also consume additional storage in the repository

Considerations when deciding which types of fields to configure are listed below.

• Key fields are indexed for easy search of Submissions. You will see the controls designated as Key fields in the Submissions table. This is helpful when trying to locate a particular submission from a long list. Key fields do not affect performance. They are not downloaded when exporting your submissions to Excel.
• Saved fields do affect performance as they are independently stored in addition to XML data. This can significantly reduce performance, especially for large forms and require additional storage in the repository. Saved fields are not rendered in the submission table and cannot be used as search criteria for submissions. Saved fields  are downloaded to Excel.

Clicking on the Click to setup Key/Saved Fields link displays the setup wizard. This link is on the form's properties as shown below. If you have navigated away from the form's properties and instead see a control properties panel, just click anywhere on the toolbar to return to the form's properties.

Fields saved as part of a submission are always included in the export. For example, suppose several submissions of the Product Order Form were created with the Saved Fields list shown in the image:

This property can only be checked if you have the save property checked. When checked a PDF image of the file is also saved in ' submission repository or to Google drive . See the documentation for the submissions repository for details on viewing the PDFs saved thereon viewing the PDFs saved there. Notice all controls, including those disabled or in a signed section, are no longer grayed out in the pdf.

PDF Name

When you check Save PDF on the form /flow Property panel, an optional PDF name field displays. It is only visible when the "Save PDF" property is checked and is disabled when the "Save" property is unchecked. If this new property is set, then it is used to name the generated PDF. You can use templates to name the pdfs .For example, let's say you have an Employee Onboarding form /flow for new employees hires and you wanted the pdf in the submissions to be named using their last name. Simply add the name of the control in your form that collects the last name as a template ex:{LastName} in the PDF Name property. The pdf for each Employee Onboarding submission will then be named {LastName}.pdf.pdf.

If the PDF Name property is empty, then the form name is used as the pdf name. It is recommended that PDF Names use characters that are suitable for filenames. Following the POSIX filename standard (A–Z a–z 0–9 . _ - ) will ensure it works.

In the submissons, the pdf for the Onboarding of new hire Eric Armani is named as shown.

If this Name PDf property is empty, then the form/flow name is used as the pdf name

Setting Margins, Headers and Footers for the PDF

The designer can specify the content of the headers, footers and the size of margins for the pdf in a form/flow. Refer to this documentation for the details.

Show Logo

This property is checked by default and causes the “powered by ” logo to appear on your form. Uncheck the checkbox to remove the logo from your form.

This feature helps to protect your forms against spamming by automatic submitters. By selecting captcha, an image is displayed when a user submits your form, containing a string and also an audio recording. The user must enter the string into the specified input box. If the string is correctly reproduced, the form submission will be processed as usual. If it is not a new string is displayed and the user may try again. Click the  to cancel.

Save/Load

This feature is only available to users with tenant accounts. If you check this checkbox a save , a Save button will be displayed at the bottom of your form. If you don’t want users to be able to save/load your form, uncheck the checkbox so users will not see this button.

This feature is useful for lengthy forms where your users may not have all the information required to complete the form in a single session. By clicking on save the Save button a copy of the form with all the current values is saved on the  form server. Later the user can re-open the form from their task list; see see Perform a task for more information.. The form will populate the fields from with the saved values.

Users can repeat the save/load steps as many times as they wishYou can save your partially filled in forms as many times as you want.

Currently the Save button label for forms cannot be customized like it can for flows. The ability to change this may be available in a future release.

See the Save and Load feature, for full details.

This property is currently ineffective for tenants with the default delegating security manager. However the delegating security manager may support SSO in the future.

Accessible

Live Forms can be used to build accessible forms/flows that meet Section 508 and WCAG 2.0 accessibility standards. Check the Accessible property to turn on this feature. Refer to this documentation for the details.

Decorated

Decorated is checked by default when you create a new form. If  you uncheck Decorated at the form level, newly added controls will have their control level decorator property unset -- meaning no decorator. It will NOT remove the decorator from all controls already in the form. The decorated property can also be set at the flow level. The designer can select a decorator for each of the steps in a flow that will display on the navigation bar.
