Question Actions

Question actions ask entrants a question for an entry, as free text, a single or multiple choice list, or a choice between images.

Ask entrants a question and let them answer in their own words. Use it for feedback, surveys or to get a conversation going.

Turn on Validate Answers to control what entrants can submit:

  • Allowed Responses: one per line, as letters, numbers or Regex. Entrants can only submit an answer that matches
  • Max word count: the longest answer you'll accept

Use it to make sure entrants answer correctly, pick from a set list, or keep it short.

Choose Image questions allow you to ask users to select an image from the options you provide as an action.
