Before I begin to tell you about this new feature, I think this one deserves a drum roll. Without further adoā€¦.

Ā 

drumroll

Ā 

Our contact info question is now available!
Ā 

Many (many!) of you have been waiting for this feature, and you can all sleep well at night knowing that itā€™s possible to ask for contact information in the same question.Ā 

Ā 

This feature doesnā€™t need much explaining, so Iā€™ll dive right into explaining how to add this block to your form in the video below:Ā 

Ā 

Ā 

To use this question:Ā 

Ā 

  1. Search or select the question by clicking the + button on the upper left corner of the builder.Ā

Thank you for the great addition!Ā 

Ā 

Could you please also add the Question for Data Privacy to the contact info?

Ā 

Otherwise we need (at least in Germany) still to ask one more Question


Hi @btechĀ Oh, thatā€™s a good point. Iā€™ll share this feedback with the product team!


@LizĀ  GREAT idea. Question: you know how facebook ads forms have ā€œauto fillā€ the form. It would be great if both: this can be used on FB itself sand all major social media too ] and it autofill - and - importantly even as one uses this with clients, if there are several (or one) auto-fill option, because letā€™s face it - most people do Not want to tediously fill in forms and may bounce]. u3] Also another extra option is if they can press a button (e.g. google log in or FB login and/or linkedin Login , etc - so it another way to grab info perhaps?!) ideas! Thanks!


@btechĀ Our product team said this is on their radar to add! No projected date (so it could be a while), but know itā€™s coming!

@BrainĀ Yeah, thatā€™s a great point! Iā€™ll share this too.Ā šŸ˜€


I may be losing my mind, but I saw the option for contact Info yesterday, and now itā€™s suddenly gone?Ā 

Am I missing something?Ā 

Ā 

Ā 


Not seeing the option for new Contact Info question.

Iā€™m in Australia.

Am I going crazy?!


Could there also be a tickbox or yes/no added for ā€˜would you like to receive our monthly newsletterā€™ etc


@Mark_SIBOĀ @hellofelixĀ  - iā€™mĀ  seeing it here in Canada.. maybe due to the rollout of features in diff geographies??Ā 

Ā 

not sureā€¦Ā

Iā€™m in Aus & itā€™s coming up in my forms ā€“ maybe have another squiz today? They may have taken it down for a hot minute


Sooo excited about this! Rolling 3-4 questions into one, yay šŸ˜Ž Gonna add this badboy to my Toolkit Tuesday newsletter this week! Cheers for the heads up @Gabi AmaralĀ šŸ™ŒšŸ¼


Hi @Graham CoxĀ and @Mark_SIBOĀ are you still missing the contact info field?Ā 


I donā€™t see a way to make ā€œcontact infoā€ a required question in my survey. Is this intentional?Ā 

Ā 

Edit - found it!


@zoeshankĀ - i think the field level requirement exists (see the image below - the ā€˜asterisksā€™ on the right side) but not at the question level

if you make one of the fields (at minimum) required, the question becomes ā€˜requiredā€™


HiĀ @Graham CoxĀ andĀ @Mark_SIBOĀ are you still missing the contact info field?Ā 

No, I can see it and just set it up on a quiz. Looks great. Thanks


Glad to hear, @Graham CoxĀ !


We had started evaluating other forms, as collectingĀ the contact info was so tedious with Typeform. This is a game changer and we will continue to use Typeform. So happy to see this new feature! Now if only we could get an ā€œAddressā€ blockā€¦.


Hi @PaawanĀ Ah!! Glad to hear it!!Ā

Ā 

Let us know how the contact info field works for you! And weā€™ll keep you posted if an address block is on the way.Ā šŸ˜€


Hi again, @PaawanĀ ! Our product team just let me know theyĀ areĀ working on an address block as we speak! Keep your eyes peeled on the community for updates on this feature.Ā šŸ˜€


@LizĀ When will the Contact Info QuestionĀ be added as a response on the Typeform API?
