Applying logic to individual fields allows you to show or hide specific questions based on a user’s answers earlier in the form. This helps make your forms more dynamic and relevant by only displaying what’s needed.
Instructions
1. Identify the field that should be conditionally displayed
- Choose a field that should only appear if certain conditions are met.
- Example:
- “Only show the Occupation field if the user’s employment status is employed.”
- “Only show the Occupation field if the user’s employment status is employed.”
2. Open the field settings
- In the form builder, click on the field you want to control.
- In the settings panel, go to the Logic tab.

3. Add your logic rule
- Click + Rule to create a condition.
- In the Field dropdown, select the question that will control the visibility (e.g. Employment Status).
- Set the Operator (e.g. =).
- Enter the Value that should trigger the field to appear (e.g. employed).
- Save the logic.
- Once saved, the field will only appear if the condition returns TRUE.
4. Review the logic pill
- After saving, a logic pill appears next to the field label in the form builder.
- Click the pill to view a summary of the logic conditions applied.
5. Preview and test
- Click Preview in the form builder and test different responses to confirm the field appears and hides as expected.
Common Issues & Solutions
- Issue: The field is always visible
- Solution: Recheck the logic condition. Make sure the controlling field and value are correct and that the logic is returning TRUE when expected.
- Issue: Field appears for the wrong answers
- Solution: Confirm the value and operator are correctly set. For example, = requires an exact match — including case sensitivity in some cases.
