Single Checkbox
A single checkbox is used to indicate agreement to terms and conditions, confirmation, or opt-in.
Basic setup
- In the Form Fields panel (left-hand side), click and drag the Checkbox field onto your form.
- Enter an internal name (used for internal purposes only).
- Enter the checkbox text that will appear next to the checkbox.
- (Optional) Highlight the relevant checkbox text and click the link icon to attach a URL, document, or file. Alternatively, you can set the agreement details to appear in a pop-up window.
- (Optional) If this is a required action, enable the Tick if users must tick this checkbox before they can submit their response checkbox.
- (Optional) If you want to use the checkbox in an opt-out scenario, enable the Tick if this checkbox should be ticked by default checkbox.
- Save & Close.

You can display the details of the agreement, such as terms and conditions or a privacy policy, in a pop-up window that form users can access via a link in the checkbox text.
- Select your checkbox text.
- Click on Highlight your text then click here to make it link to a popup.
- Enter the contents of the pop-up window (e.g. terms and conditions) and format using the rich-text editor.
