Field Properties

Click any field on the canvas and the right panel shows that field's tabs: Properties, Validation, Logic, Style. This page documents the Properties tab — the common settings every field has, plus the type-specific panels that appear for fields with extra config.

Common Properties

These appear on (almost) every field type:

Label

The visible label rendered above the input. Required for accessibility — even if you set Style → Label Position to Hidden, screen readers will still announce it.

Example: Email address

Placeholder

Hint text shown inside an empty input. Disappears once the user starts typing. Not all field types render a placeholder (toggles, ratings, date inputs, etc. may show theirs differently or not at all).

Example: you@company.com

Help Text

Small caption text shown under the input. Use for clarification, format hints, or privacy notes.

Example: We'll never share your email.

Required

Toggle. When on, the field must have a non-empty value before the form can submit. The label gets a red asterisk (or "(required)" text — see Form Settings → Required Indicator).

For toggles and consent fields, "non-empty" means true (checked). An unchecked required consent blocks submission.

Save to Contact Field

A dropdown that maps this field's value to a property on the lead/contact created from each submission. Pick from:

MappingStores to
Don't save to contact(no mapping — lives only on the submission row)
Full Name (splits into first + last)first_name + last_name
First Name / Last Namefirst_name / last_name
Company / Job Titlecompany / job_title
Gender / Date of Birth / Passwordcorresponding contact field
Email / Secondary Emailemail / secondary_email
Phone / Mobile Phone / Work Phonecorresponding contact phone
Websitewebsite
Street Address / City / State / Province / Zip / Postal Code / Countrycorresponding address fields
Notesnotes
Lead Sourcelead_source
Lead Scorelead_score

Contact-typed palette items (First Name, Email, Phone, etc. in the Contact & Personal category) come pre-mapped — you don't need to set this manually.

Default Value

Pre-fills the field with this value when the form loads. Visitors can still edit it. Useful for sensible defaults, prefilled phone country code, or branded suggestions.

Note: if a visitor lands with a cached lead ID (returning visitor), saved contact values override the default. URL-param hidden fields override both. See Hidden Fields & Variables.

Field-Type-Specific Panels

Below the common properties, certain field types add their own configuration sub-panel.

Text Input + Phone — Text Options

SettingWhat It Does
Min LengthMinimum character count. Triggers an inline validation error if shorter.
Max LengthMaximum character count. Enforced as the HTML maxLength attribute too — typing past the limit is blocked.
Input MaskFormat pattern. # = digit, A = letter, * = either, anything else = literal. Auto-formats as you type.

Mask examples:

MaskType "123456789" → Becomes
