Pro tip: You can add dynamic questions using the branching feature for questions with multiple choices.



This can also be exported as a CSV for further analysis.



Form Responses


The Responses tab lets you view all the form responses in a table format. The responses are grouped by the projects that they have been added to.

The columns for the tables are:

  • Form Details

    Mentions the project that the form template has been added to and the number of responses that have been recorded by the form users.

  • Due date

    Mentions the due date for the form added to the task.


  • Assignees

    Mentions the assignees that have been added to the task that has form template added.


  • Form Questions Fields

    Mentions each question in the form and records the responses that have been added to the question.


  • Created By

    Mentions which user has provided the form response.


  • Created on

    Mentions the date on which the form response was created.


  • Updated by

    Mentions which user has updated the form response.


  • Updated on

    Mentions the date on which the form response was updated.


Form Automations


The Automations tab allows you to create a task in the project when a form is submitted. In case a task field was used in the form, the value will get automatically populated in the created task field.






Form Settings


Responses


Manage how many responses can be accepted from a single user.



  • Accepts multiple responses

    Used in cases where multiple responses are needed to be collected. For example, to collect employee details and crowd feedback.
  • Accept only one response

    Used in cases where only one response is required. For example, a hand-off. Response can be edited after submission.

Sharing


  • Restricted

    Only people logged in to your project can submit a response.
  • Anyone with the link

    Anyone with the form link can submit response. 


Note: The responses submitted will be anonymous since theses users are not a part of the project.
