  • Editor: Edit and manage form content and submissions, but cannot control who has access to the form.

Field Level Permissions

With this you can control who can edit individual fields in your forms and surveys. Ex: In a delivery form, the delivery person can only collect e-signatures in the form.

Step 1: Invite Members

  • Go to the Teams section
  • Send an invite via email and set their role as Members.

Avoid assigning them as Maintainer, as Maintainers have full access to edit the entire form. If that member has already been invited then, change their access to be Members in Teams or Staff in Organization.

Step 2: Toggle on Field Assignee

  • Open your form and select the field to restrict.
  • Go to Advanced settings and enable Field Assignee.

  • Select Add Role,
  • And provide a name to this role,
  • Then add members or an entire team to this role

Only these added members or the team can edit and fill out this field. For others this will be restricted.
