Adding questions

Go from your homepage to the desired template and hit or create a new template.
Go to step 2: Sections and questions

Here you can customize the template with sections and questions that will appear in the Capption.

First step is to name the first section. I named this one: General information

Hitand the following  screen will appear. You can start setting up the question(s) for this section. 

Tab 1. Item

Put the question you want to ask in in the 'Name*' box.
Then select the type of question you want to use. There are many options:

- Short text: open text field, 1 line
- Long description: open text field, multiple lines
- Number: answer can only be a number
- Date: pick a date from the calendar
- Date and time: pick a date and a time
- Single select: choose 1 option from multiple, predefined answers (e.g.: Is the hallway clean? Yes / No / Not applicable)
- Multiple select: select 1 or more options from the predefined answers (e.g.: Which of the these are applicable? Working on height / High voltage / Dangerous goods)
- Source: load options from an external source via the API [Premium Only] 
-
Assignment: (e.g. "Walk around item x" or "Take a photo of the front of the building")
- Carbon copy: send report to a specified email address [Premium Only] 

For this example I will show you the  Single Select option.
The question I created is: Name of the user.

I created three choices: Two pre-filled choices, and a third free text choice. The user can choose between the first two options or use the free text option to fill in their name + surname manually.

You also have the option to make this question required. The user is then obligated to answer this question. If the user skips this answer, the Capption can not be completed.
