Form is built up of Form Elements. There are various types of ready made Form Elements already built in into Joget. Below is the list of Form Elements available by default.

Forms are made up of form elements, many types of which are already built inside Joget and ready to be used. We have listed them below.

When you design forms, you must first set its When you first create a form, you must choose it's default properties.

The 'ID' is "ID" is a unique identifier for the form. 
The 'Name' allows "Name" allows you to identify this form in other places (e.g., when creating a data list.) 
The ' "Table Name' is " is the table used by the Joget core to store the form data during a workflow process. This table will automatically be created by the Joget core with a name like 'app_fd_mytablename'. You can choose to specify a table name that already exists and ; new columns will be added to that table when you build your form (more on that in a moment.).  We will discuss more of this later on.

Forms allow you to choose many different form fields such as TextField, SelectBox, Hidden Field, etc. As you  You can drag and drop new fields into them on your form canvas , you have the option to and then edit their properties. 

The 'ID' in the property editor is a unique identifier. The Joget core uses this ID as a column name within the table associated to the form (e.g. c_patientAssignment below.) When a user enters a value into in the field during a workflow process, this the value gets is stored into in that column. If the ID has never been used in previous forms associated to the same table, a new column will be created. If the ID, on the other hand, has been used before, that column will be used (and therefore, the value overwritten .  It is important to note that when someone enters that a value when filling out the completing a form during a workflow process.), that value will overwrite the existing one. 

"Label" is The 'Label' is the human-readable identifier for the form field.

The 'Value' is any default value you wish "Value" is the static value or hash variable that you would like to store in that column. It can be used to store a static value or a hash variable.

Other properties may exist depending on the type of form field you added to the canvas.
