Using the Rule Builder

You can create rules to build a dynamic form that can show and hide fields, skip pages, and show custom confirmation messages based on what people select or type when filling out your form.

TypeDescription
Form RulesWhen someone submits your form, you can redirect them to another site, create a customized confirmation message, or trigger an email.
Field RulesDynamically show or hide fields in your form—make sure people only see fields relevant to them.
Page RulesSkip people to different pages in your form—make sure people only see pages relevant to them.
The Form Rules tab exemplifying how a condition, Kevin, triggers an action, sending an email to a specific email address.

Building rules is as easy as creating logical sentences based on the fields in your form. Every rule is made up of two bits: a condition and an action.

  • Condition
  • Action

TIP! If you're feeling overwhelmed, just read the rule bit by bit as if it were a sentence—it'll help you break it down and understand what's going on.
