Checkbox
The Checkbox component provides a simple way for users to indicate whether presented data is relevant to them or not.
How It Works
The Checkbox component displays a box which can be checked or unchecked by clicking on it. You can customize its label, enabled/disabled, required status, and additional behaviors to match your form requirements.
Properties
| Property | Description |
|---|---|
| Label Name | The text label displayed above the checkbox field. |
| Hide Label | Option to hide the label visually while keeping it accessible to screen readers. |
| Disabled | The field is still displayed, however it can not be filled out. |
| Checkbox Text | Insert the text you want the checkbox to display here. |
| Default Checked | Enable this option to make the checkbox checked by default when a new user fills out the form. |
| Make Required | Marks the field as required. The user must toggle checkbox before moving forward or submitting. |
| Add CSS Class | Apply custom CSS classes to style the field to match your branding or layout. |
| Display Component in Navigation | Option to include this component in any summary or form navigation (if applicable). |
| Clear When Information Update Is On | When enabled, the field will be cleared for returning users if the Information Update setting is active in Form Settings. This ensures that updated entries are always collected. |
| Unique Name | A required identifier that must be unique within the form. Used in variables, email templates, webhooks, and integrations. |
| Variable Name | A variable identifier that can be copied to collect information in printable PDF or Word forms. |
| Mask in Notification Email | Masks the submitted value of this field in email notifications for enhanced privacy and compliance. Useful for preventing exposure of sensitive or identifiable information. |
Using Checkbox Values in Other Parts of the Form
You can reference the provided data gathered through the Checkbox elsewhere in the form (e.g., success pages, PDF templates, notification emails) using the component’s Unique Name as a variable.
