Repeating groups

A repeating group holds a few questions that respondents can fill in again and again, such as one name and age per guest.


What a repeating group is

A repeating group holds one or more questions. Respondents add as many items as they need, each with its own answers. Use it for event guests (a name and age per person), order lines (product, quantity, and price), team contacts, or work history.

Add a repeating group

  1. 1

    Insert the group

    Click Repeating Group in the Blocks tab, or type / and pick it.

  2. 2

    Name the group

    Give it a title, such as "Additional guests".

  3. 3

    Add questions inside

    Add questions inside the group, such as Text Input, Number, or Dropdown.

  4. 4

    Edit the add-button label

    Change "Add one more" to fit, such as "Add another guest".

To group questions you already have, select them and pick Create repeating group in the block menu. Remove grouping undoes it.

A group cannot go inside another group or a column. Payment, Schedule appointment, Documents, and email verification do not work inside a group.

What respondents see

The first item shows like any other part of the form. With two or more, each item becomes a numbered card with an X to remove it. A group holds up to 100 items. Required questions are required in every item.

On a request that locks a question in the group, the recipient cannot add or remove items.

Groups and conditional logic

Logic can show or hide the whole group, but cannot read or target the questions inside it.

Where the answers show up

  • In the submission inbox, as numbered cards, one per item.

  • In the question summary, as one card per group, with counts per question.

  • In exports, as one column for the whole group, with items separated by |.

Use group answers in text

An @ mention of a question in the group lists its answers from every item. A mention of the whole group lists all items. See @ mentions.
