Forms
Form views are how data gets into your app: a clean, focused page that creates or edits one record. Build the form once and reuse it everywhere — navigation, action buttons, even anonymous public links.
Configuring a form
| Setting | Options | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Table | — | The table the form writes to. |
| Fields | — | Which fields appear, in order. Required fields are enforced before submit. |
| Select input | dropdown / radio / buttons | Per select or multi-select field on this form, how its options are offered: a searchable dropdown, one radio (checkbox for multi-select) per option, or a row of toggle buttons. The options and the saved value are the same either way. |
| Width | full / half | Per field on this form. On tablets and computers two half-width fields in a row sit side by side; a half field next to a full one sits alone at half width. Phones always stack fields full width. |
| Submit label | — | The button text — “Submit request”, “Add customer”. |
| On success | view | Where the app navigates after a successful submit; back to the previous page when unset. |
Create and edit, same form
Opened from navigation, a form creates a new record. Opened from an action like Edit row or Copy row, the same form loads that record's values and saves changes back. Add-row actions can also prefill fields — "New task for this project" with the project already set.
Field behavior
- Inputs match field types: selects render their options, dates get pickers, references search the linked table.
- Select fields answer as a dropdown by default. On the form's
Fieldstab, the three icons beside the field switch it to one radio (or checkbox) per option, or to a row of buttons: fewer taps for short lists, and every choice visible at once. It is a per-form choice, so the same field can be buttons on a phone intake form and a dropdown in the back office. - Image and file fields show the picked file at once and upload it when the form is saved (up to 10 MB per file), so a file you replace or remove before saving is never stored. Signature fields show a
Tap to signline that opens a centered drawing pad — sign with a mouse or finger, and the saved signature is stored as an image. - Per-field
Visible ifrules can reveal inputs conditionally. - A field's
Hint(set once on the field in the Data tab) shows as a helper line under its label on every form, and behind a small info mark on record pages and table headers.
Anonymous forms
A form shared through a public link accepts submissions from people without accounts — with bot protection, rate limits, and an optional moderation field stamped on every submission. File uploads stay signed-in only.
