    ご担当者様

    お世話になっております。

    管理用のカラムをフォームの中に作成したいものの、管理用のためフォーム回答者(顧客)に見えてしまうのは避けたいのですが、そのような機能はありますでしょうか?

    ご確認ください。よろしくお願いいたします。

    Hello ACCELStars,

    Thank you for reaching out to Jotform Support. Our Japanese Support agents are busy helping other Jotform users right now, so I'll try to help you in English using Google Translate, but you can reply in whichever language you feel comfortable using. Or, if you'd rather have support in Japanese, let us know and we can have them do that. But, it might take a while until they're available again.

    Now, coming back to your question, If I understood what you’re asking, you want to be able to create a form and have some parts available only for admin? If so, yes, it is possible by hiding the fields and condition to show them when admin is viewing. Let me show you how:

    1 - First, you need to hide the fields for the Admin.

    2 - Add the Get Page URL Widget.

    3 - Add this condition, so your hidden fields will appear on edit access.

    Hello Myla,

    Thank you for your response. I tried it out, but I'm not sure how to make the [for the Admin] section appear. Even when I create a new form, it doesn't seem to be available in the form elements section. Could you please guide me on how to find it?

    Hello Myla,

    Thank you. I apologize for the delay in my response due to being busy with other matters.

    I am referring to a new column that I want to add, not an existing one. For example, I would like to add a dropdown list to the form below and make that column hidden. Could you please provide the steps for doing this?

    Hi ACCELStars,

    Can you explain a bit more, so I can help you better? Do you want to add a Dropdown field and hide this when the form is previewed? Or do you wish to conditionally hide the dropdown field when you edit the submission? If you can give us more information on how you would like it to work? In the meantime, here's how to add a dropdown field and hide it manually:

    1. In Form Builder, click the Add Form Element.
    2. Under the basic tab, search and add the Dropdown field to your form.

    3. Once added, click the gear icon to open Properties.

    4. Under the Advanced tab, scroll down, then toggle On the Hide Field option.

    If that’s not exactly what you’re looking for, can you explain a bit more, so I can help you better?

    Give it a try and let us know how it goes.
