Long Text
The long text field gives respondents room to write detailed answers. It renders as a multi-line text area that grows as they type.
Adding a long text field
- Click the + button between blocks, or
- Type
/longand select Long answer from the list
Settings
Click the drag handle to access settings:
- Required — make this field mandatory
- Maximum characters — cap the response length if needed (up to 20,000 characters)
When to use it
Long text is great for:
- Open-ended feedback (“What could we improve?”)
- Detailed descriptions or explanations
- Comments and suggestions
- Anything where a single line just won’t cut it
For short, structured answers, the Short Text field is a better fit.
