Creating multi step form

You can create a multi-step form using widgets with conditional filters. Multi-step forms are a great way to set up your form so that users will only see and fill out information that is relevant to them, without having a long form to look through.

Prepare your data table

We will be creating a multi-step create form on our Property app. We will use a dropdown field, with two options, the status chosen by the user will determine what they see in the rest of the form.

You will need a dropdown field with two options added into your table, for our example, "For Sale" and "To Lease" are added to our Property table.

There should now be 3 different field widgets in the form: The first with the multi-select field and one field widget for the results of each drop-down option. The form should look something like this.

Set visibility filters

1. Click to highlight the Sale information widget

2. In Edit layout click Set conditional visibility

3. Select the field. In this example, it will be the "For Sale/To Let?" field

4. Select "For Sale" as the option

5. Repeat this with the Lease information field widget

Now when users select either "For Sale" or "To Lease" in the first field container, they will only be shown the relevant field container.
