What this does
The email field maps to Airtable’s Email field type. Beyond collecting an email address, it has a full validation suite: format checking, domain blocking, typo detection, and OTP verification. Filla always validates that the value is a properly formatted email address before any other checks run. Invalid formats are rejected on both blur and submission with the message “Please enter a valid email address” — no configuration needed.Settings reference

How OTP verification works
When Verify email with a one-time code is enabled:- The respondent enters their email address
- Filla sends a 6-digit code to that address
- A code entry input appears on the form
- The respondent enters the code to verify
- A checkmark badge confirms verification
- The respondent can request a new code after a short cooldown

- And 25+ others
Common questions
Can I use both disposable email blocking and OTP verification?
Can I use both disposable email blocking and OTP verification?
Yes, and it’s a strong combination. Disposable email blocking prevents throwaway addresses; OTP verification confirms the respondent can actually receive mail at the address they provided.
Does typo detection block submission?
Does typo detection block submission?
No. Typo detection shows a suggestion (“Did you mean gmail.com?”) but the respondent can ignore it and submit with their original input.
What happens if the respondent doesn't receive the OTP?
What happens if the respondent doesn't receive the OTP?
They can click “Resend code” after the cooldown. Check that your inbox provider isn’t blocking Filla’s sending domain.
