The Field Logic feature allows form creators to set rules that control which fields are shown based on the user's input, helping streamline the user experience by only displaying fields relevant to their situation. Currently, this feature is available only when a form is in test mode.
Note: This article applies to Form Owners and Form Admins only; please contact your district people admin or another point of contact if you believe you should have form creator access.
In this article, we will review:
