How to add a Date question

Markdown

View as Markdown

Date opens a calendar. Use it when you need a specific day.

1. Add it

In Build, click Add a question, then choose Date. See How to add questions.

Question picker with Date highlighted

2. On the form

The field is on the canvas. Question settings opens so you can write the prompt, add hint text, and mark it required.

Date on the form

3. What it is for

People pick a date. Typical uses: preferred start date, an event day, or a deadline they propose.

4. Edit and require

Click the field to change the wording. Hover it to duplicate or delete. Required questions show a red asterisk. Optional ones do not.

This is a date on the form, not the close date in Form settings. Close dates live under Settings, Responses.

5. Ask AI

In create a form with AI, describe the form and name this type. On a form you already have, open Chat to Edit (the pencil next to Add a question) and ask in a sentence.

Example:

Add a date question for their preferred start date.

6. Read the draft

The helper replies with a Draft card. Each field shows its type. Check that Date is in the list. Click Create this form when you want it. Close if you were only trying a prompt. That does not add a form.
