Example:

- Determines how this field is displayed on your form

- Set a default value for this field. A default value is used to automatically add data to the field for the user.

If the field is editable, the default value can be changed by the user.

You can set the Default Date as Today or Now

Example:

- If enabled, the default value will be used on Record Edits if the field was not completed by the user and has no value

URL Prefills can be used to automatically add data and values to your form fields for your form user

Example: You can send a form to someone with their first and last name and the date already filled in on the form.

There are many ways you can use URL Prefills to make it a more seamless process for your form users.

In On2Air Forms, there is a default key already added to each field that matches the field name. You can change the name or you can leave it as-is. Remove the Key to disable URL Prefills for this field.

URL parameters are made of a key and a value after the URL

Key/Value: ?key=value Format: www.on2air.com/form/yourformid?key=value

Options:

Short - M/D/YYYY - Example: 3/1/2023

Medium - MMM DD, YYYY - Example: Mar 1, 2023

You can set a limit on what dates and times are available to choose.

You’ll see various date and time options to customize. You can use the Relative date options so the days are always relative to the current date.

relMinDate - set a negative number value to allow days prior to Today - Set to 0 to start Today as an option - example: -10 would allow 10 days prior to Today

relMaxDate - set a number value equal to the days past Today that - example: enter 14 for 14 days past Today

disabledDates - disable specific dates so the user cannot choose the date - for multiple dates, add a comma in between dates

disabledDays - disable specific days of the week so the user cannot choose the day

minDate - set a static date value as the minimum date to choose from - example: 6/15/2023

maxDate - set a static date value as the maximum date to choose from - example: 7/15/2023

There are multiple more Date and Time formatting options for even further customization, such as minimum and maximum dates, week number, seconds, milliseconds, disable days/months, etc. For specific questions on date and time formatting, feel free to reach out to Support.
