The Basics of Project Editing

Add 'Fields' that you want to add to your form, and write down your questions and explanations.

  • 'Through the 'Response Validation' setting, you can customize response types (number, text, length, regular expression) and error messages.

You can visually see how the survey will progress by viewing the 'Logic'.

  • By clicking the 'Logic based on answers' button, you can set different questions based on the answers given.

In the 'Settings,' you can edit the survey's color, and add brand logo, and hidden fields.

Through the 'Ending Field', you can specify that upon survey completion, respondents are redirected to a

designated URL or shown an exit page (available from the Pro plan onwards).

Once edits of the project are finished, press 'Publish' Button to start receiving responses.

  • Pressing 'Publish' activates the 'Accept Responses' button, allowing respondents to submit their responses. You can deactivate the project if you want to stop receiving responses.

Setting Up Fields and Field Description

Clicking on the plus sign (or Add Button) at the top left of the project editing screen reveals a list of

'Fields' that can be added. Select the field that you want to include in your form.

Are you finding it difficult to use the 'Response Validation' feature? Let me explain the concept briefly.

  1. In the 'Response Type', determine how to restrict the responses entered by respondents.
  • For instance, if you want the response to be entered only as a number.
  • Or if you want it to be entered only as text.
  • Or if you want to limit the length of the response.
  • Or if you want to restrict the response format using regular expressions.
  1. The 'Response Condition' adds specific conditions to the response restrictions determined in the 'Response Type.
  • If you've restricted the response type to 'Length', in the response condition, you can set conditions for minimum and maximum character counts.
  1. In 'Response Reference', you write down the exact characters, numbers, or regular expressions to specify detailed restriction criteria.
  • If you pick 'Length' as the response type and set 'Number' in the response condition, entering '45' in the reference value means respondents must provide answers with at least 45 characters to submit.
  • In the 'Error Message' section, you write a warning message that will appear if respondents' answers don't meet the conditions you've set.

Here are some commonly used settings for 'Response Validation'.

1️⃣ I want to set the minimum response length to 45 characters!

  • Response Type: Length
  • Response Condition: Number
  • Reference Value: 45
  • Error Message: Please provide more than 45 characters

2️⃣ I want to accept only numbers between 1 and 100 as responses! = Excluding 1 and 100

  • Response Type : Number
  • Response Condition : Range value
  • Reference Value: 1 and 100
  • Error Message : Please enter an number between 1 and 100 only

3️⃣ I'd like the response to include the word 'Apple'!

  • Response Type : Text
  • Response Condition : Include
  • Reference Value: Apple
  • Error Message : Please include 'Apple' into the answer

4️⃣ 'I want to receive only phone numbers formatted like '010-1111-2222' with dashes in the middle!

  • Response Type : Regex (Regular Expression)
  • Response Condition : Contains
  • Reference Value: ^\d{3}-\d{3,4}-\d{4}$
  • Error Message : Please enter the phone number in the format '010-1111-2222'.

I'll provide a summary of commonly used regular expressions

  • Name(2 character minimum, 26자 character maximum) : ^[A-Z]{1,26}$
  • Postal Code(6 Character: Ex. πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦) : ^\d{6}$
  • Email : ^[A-z0-9._-]+@[A-z0-9-]+\.[A-z]+$
  • Cell Phone(Ex. πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦)
  • If separated by - (ex. 613-1111-2222) : ^\d{3}-\d{3,4}-\d{4}$
  • If separated by . (ex. 613.1111.2222) : ^\d{3}.\d{3,4}.\d{4}$
  • If separated by number only (ex. 16311112222) : ^\d{10,11}$
  • Date of Birth
  • YYYY.MM.DD : ^\d{4}.\d{2}.\d{2}$
