Field Validation

Automatic Validation

• Email fields validate email format and show an error if the address looks wrong
  (for example: The email address you entered is not valid. Please check the format and try again (example: name@example.com).)

• Required fields must be filled; otherwise you’ll see a message such as:
  Please fill out all required fields marked with an asterisk (*).

• File fields validate file type and size (25MB per file, 1GB total storage per license)

• Other fields (numbers, URLs, etc.) are checked for basic format where applicable

Error Messages

When validation fails, users see clear messages indicating what needs to be corrected.
Field-level errors appear near the relevant field, and an overall message appears below the form button.

For a complete list of possible messages and what they mean, see Messages Reference.

Best Practices

1. Keep forms concise - Only ask for necessary information

2. Use clear labels - Make it obvious what information is needed

3. Group related fields - Use conditional logic to show relevant fields

4. Test thoroughly - Test all fields and conditional logic before publishing

5. Provide helpful placeholders - Guide users on what to enter

6. Use appropriate field types - Match field types to the data you're collecting
