Working With Form Settings
Form Settings allow to set Data Source Object, customize Form name, labels, look and feel, buttons and configure form events.
When new Form created user is redirected to the Form Builder page with Settings tab selected:
- Name - Name of the Form in the list of forms.
Note: Name can differ from the Form Header which is shown to the user.
- ID - System Id of the form. Used when you need to refer the form from other places. Value is read-only and becomes populated after form has beed saved first time and reloaded in builder. This field is not visible when you create a form.
- Description - Description. Not mandatory.
- Data Source Object - Select the object which you want to work with in the current form. When Data Source selected, all fields from the object will become available for adding to the Form on Items Tab.
- Multi Page Form - Check this checkbox if you want to have many pages on the form (in this case form will look as wizard). The page will be visible only if it has at least one visible component inside.
- CSS Styles - Allows to customize form appearance with using CSS. Click to show a proper popup (1). You can customize each component on the form separately and even write own styles for necessary elements, even not for form. Select Component, add to the input and add CSS rules inside of curly brackets.
Note: @@
and ##
in the styles builder will be substituted with actual unique prefixes generated by SalesForce for Form and Form container. Do not replace them with hard-coded values because they are not constant.
- Show Navigation Panel - this allows to show/hide navigation panel which allows to navigate between forms if you redirect to other form from the current one.
- Save Form on Proceed Step - if checked Form will be saved when user clicks Proceed on Step.
- Save Form on Proceed Issue - if checked Form will be saved when user clicks Proceed on Issue.
- Use Standard FLS Settings - if checked Form will render sObject fields in accordance with Field Level Security settings for the current user's profile (available starting 4.1 release).
Field behaviour when 'Use Standard FLS Settings' turned on:
- If field is not visible for current Profile in FLS, it won't be displayed in Data Source Fields form builder section (so it could not be added to the form canvas) and in Form Renderer.
- If field was added to the form, and after that Profile got updated so that field is not visible for user, field will be displayed on the canvas in Form Bulder, but won't be visible in Form Renderer.
- If field is visible but not editable for profile, Form Renderer will display field in read only mode.
Allows to show/hide specified buttons in Edit/View mode of the form and change some their properties.
Also you can customize each button Label.
Click Settings icon next to the button to change the label. Some buttons allow to set additional functionality.
Save - allows to add confirmation message on form Save. It allows to specify the following settings:
- Label - change text on the button.

- Confirmation message - allows to modify message that will be shown after form saving.
- Disable Validation available from release 6.0 - allows to ignore all specified validation rules on this form elements.
- Extended fields available from version 6.0 - allows to specify extended fields (fields to be passed and saved in spite of their absence on the form).
