Start a form
Templates provide fields, layout, and example values. Choose one when its structure is close to what you need, or start blank for full control.
Choose a template
Section titled “Choose a template”- Open Workspace in the sidebar.
- Select Create Form.
- Enter a name for your form.
- Choose a template in the Create Form dialog.
- Select Create Form.
The new form opens in Builder. Select a field to replace its example content, remove fields you do not need, or add new fields from Add.
Each template selects its configured UI library automatically. The library cannot be changed after creation.
Available templates
Section titled “Available templates”The Form Editor provides these starters:

Start with a blank form
Section titled “Start with a blank form”Choose Blank Form when none of the templates matches your workflow. Select the UI library before creating the form; it cannot be changed later. Compare UI libraries before deciding.
