A Typeform glossary

Hey there! This list covers some of the terms you may come across while using Typeform. We’ve also provided links to relevant help center material, so you can start creating as quickly as possible.  

Create panel - The Create panel is where you can create and edit your form’s questions, jazz up your form’s design, set up any necessary Logic, and change a few additional settings.

Hidden Fields - Hidden Fields, which are a feature in Logic, are values relating to respondent information, like name or email, that you can preload in your form’s URL without your respondent needing to enter them. The form can display these values when opened, and the values will also appear in your form’s results. Learn more about Hidden Fields here

Layout - Use Layout options to position an image or GIF to a question in your form. Layout options are shown in the Question tab of the Create panel. You can select to have different layouts for mobile and desktop devices.

Logic and branching - In Typeform, Logic refers to the creation of rules that show your respondents different follow-up questions or outcomes based on how they've answered previous questions in the form. You can set up Logic in the Logic tab of the Create panel.

Use Branching and calculations within Logic to show respondents only the questions that are most relevant to them. You can also set up variables or Hidden Fields using Logic.  

Logic Map - The Logic Map lives in the Logic tab of the Create panel. It’s a visual aid showing the paths of any logic you’ve set up for the form. This is the Logic Map for a form with branching set up at several points.
