How do I use common fields to collect personal information?

Common fields are pre-configured form elements designed to collect essential personal information from respondents. You can add them to your form to gather data for registrations, surveys, contact forms, and more.


Available Common Fields:

  • Name: Collects a respondent's full name, separated into "First Name" and "Last Name" fields.
  • Mobile Number: Collects a respondent's phone number. It includes a mask to guide the format (e.g., (999) 999-9999).
  • Email Address: Collects a respondent's email address and validates the format.
  • Address: Collects a full physical address, including Address Line, City, State, and Zipcode.
  • Gender: Provides a dropdown menu for respondents to select their gender (Male, Female, Rather not to say).

How to Use Common Fields:

  1. Log in to your Tiger Form account.
  2. From your dashboard, click your profile icon in the top-right corner and select "Manage Forms."
  3. In the form builder, locate the "Form Components" panel on the left.
  4. Under the "Common Fields" section, click on the field you want to add (e.g., "Name").
  5. The field will be added to your form preview in the center.
  6. Click on the newly added field to open its settings on the right. Here you can:
    • Change the Label: Edit the title of the field.
    • Make it Required: Check the "Required" box to ensure respondents cannot submit the form without filling out this field.
