Number
Selecting or dragging the Number option onto your form in the form builder places an input area where users can enter numbers.
- Label
- The field label should typically be the information you want to gather or the question you're wanting to have answered.
- Description
- Provides a more detailed explanation of the field, including additional context for end users or instructions about how to complete the field.
- Required?
- Indicate if the field will be required for users to submit the form. Selecting the box indicates required, and clearing the box indicates not required.
- Placeholder Text
- Includes a hint that describes the expected value of the input to help guide end users. The placeholder appears in the input field initially and disappears when the end user begins typing in the field.
- Require whole numbers?
- Check this box to allow only whole numbers to be submitted on the form.
- Minimum
- Specify the minimum number that can be entered in the field.
- Maximum
- Specify the maximum number that can be entered in the field.
Validation
The Number field has built-in validation to help prevent invalid responses. If an end user enters a number outside of any minimum or maximum values specified in the form builder, one of the following error messages appear:
- Value must be less than [maximum set in the form builder].
- Value must be greater than [minimum set in the form builder].
