Instructions

4. Give the form a name, and optionally a description.
5. Enter a question in the "Question" field.
6. Determine how to answer with the "type" field.
The choices for a questionnaire are:
Flat Text | This is a field for text. You can choose to force the answer to a numeric value. You can also choose to validate this field: For example: when a numeric value cannot go below zero, zero would be your minimum value.
| |
Checkbox | Create a Checkbox that the queried person can check. | |
Dropdown | A dropdown question type contains all the answer options in a menu. This question type is recommended when the submitter must choose one option from a predetermined list of options. | |
RadioButtons | With the radio button question type, the queried person can choose one option from a predetermined list of options. Just like the dropdown type, but in a different layout. | |
Timestamp | The timestamp asks the surveyee at what time the data was recorded, as this is not always the same time the survey was taken. |
7. You can use the option buttons "Required" and "Is a numeric value" (the answer must be a number) to customize the properties of your question.
8. Enter an option in the Option field. You can add multiple choices using the "Add Option" button.
9. Add a new question using the button
10. Save the form
