Reuse a custom field or widget already used in another custom form
-
Begin creating or editing a custom form, as described in Create or edit a custom form with the legacy form builder.
-
With Add a field selected, click Field Library.
-
Drag the field or widget here you want it in the custom form.
-
(Optional) Repeat the two previous steps to add any other fields or widgets.
note note NOTE You can add up to 500 fields and widgets on a single custom form. However, performance degradation can occur when more than 100 exist on a form, depending on its complexity. Examples of complex forms include forms with cascading parameters, calculated custom data fields, and multiple value options in a single field. -
