Text blocks let you add rich content anywhere on your form. Use them for instructions, context, legal disclaimers, or personalized messages that reference earlier answers.

​
When to use text blocks

  • Add instructions or context between fields
  • Show a personalized message using the respondent’s earlier answers
  • Display terms, disclaimers, or legal text
  • Add formatted content with bold, italics, links, and lists

​
Using variables in text blocks

Type @ in the content editor to open the variable picker. You can insert:
  • Field values from earlier pages (e.g., “Thanks, @First Name!”)
  • Date values (e.g., today’s date)
Variables are replaced with the respondent’s actual answers when the form is displayed.
Combine text blocks with show/hide rules to display different messages based on what the respondent selected earlier.
See Variable text and @ references for more on how variables work across the platform.
