To change any of the settings, click on any of the tabs on the left side of the page. 

 

Each of the tabs on the left will change the information displayed on the right. Having selected eForm Links, the right portion of the page now displays additional information and customizable settings.

 

The Users & Security tab allows you to A) Authentication, allows you to password, One-Time Password via Email/SMS, or CAPTCHA protect your eForm, B) set an expiration date for the eForm link disabling access after a certain point, C) require user to input text (such as a name) before they can fill out the eForm, D) require user to check the box (e.g. agreeing to terms of service) before continuing to the eForm, E) requires a graphical signature before continuing to the eForm. To alter the Users and Permissions, or the eForms Groups click on the tabs to right (F).  

 

With the Users & Permissions tab you are able to grant other users varying levels of access to the eForm. You are also able to notify the users when they are added to the eForm share.

You may share eForm with Restrict data view access to other users. The restricted user will have access to only those entries that are submitted by him or the entries in which he is the current assignee.

 

With the eForm Groups tab you are able to edit the eForm Groups accessible in the Assign To field.

The Conditional Logic tab provides you a way to configure logical rules to hide field based on response of other fields.

• The rule can be set on fields of type: Single Line Text, Dropdown, Multiple Choice, Checkboxes, Extensible List, Scale, Number, Decimal, Date, Time, Currency, Percentage and Yes/No.
• These fields should be user input fields and should not be Calculated Fields.

• You also have the option to provide html object IDs of custom form layout that should be hidden based on the rule.
• In view form, the hide field will be reflected in real time, i.e., the moment value of conditional logic rule field is changed.

The Unique Data tab provides you a way to configure the fields or a combination of fields whose values will be unique within all submissions.
