Bulk Column Properties

liz_alvarez · 07/26/24

I need to create a form with 222 fields that are checkboxes. I know I can upload the column headers, but how can I make all of the column properties checkboxes without going one by one? Is the only way through Control Center, or is there a template of some sort that I can use?

Hi,

I hope you're well and safe!

I'm not sure, but I think that you can import an Excel sheet with some data already added and have it interpreted as a checkbox column.

Make sense?

Would that work/help?

I hope that helps!

Be safe, and have a fantastic day!

Best,

If that is possible, that would be awesome, I just do not know how to do so.

I know it's possible with other column types, but I'm not sure about the Checkbox one. I'll test it and get back to you!

Unfortunately, I couldn't get a checkbox column in my testing.
