Figure 1: Text Field Properties

ID

The 'ID' in the property editor is a unique identifier.
The Joget Workflow core uses this ID as a column name within the table associated to the form (e.g. c_title in the figure above).
When a user enters a value in the field during a workflow process, the value is stored 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. 
It is important to note that when someone enters a value when completing a form during a workflow process, that value will overwrite the existing one.

Warning
titleReserved IDs

Do not use the following reserved IDs. "appId, appVersion, version, userviewId, menuId, key, embed" on the form element's ID attribute.

Info
titleRecommended Naming Convention

We recommend the use of snake case (i.e. first_name) as this is the standard database naming convention. The ID declared will be part of the database table column name.

Label

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