How to Set Up Skip Logic
Quick answer
Open your form, click the top Logic tab, select the first field you want to skip or control from the left list, click Add rule, choose Skip to, pick the destination field, and set the earlier answer that should trigger the jump.
Important: it is not in Form Settings
Skip logic is in the form editor's top Logic tab. The Form Settings modal also contains a tab called Logic, but that area is for outcome/report settings, not field skip rules.
Sample setup
Use this as a copyable sample flow:
- Add three fields: Do you want to add company details?, Company details, and Your contact info.
- Go to Logic.
- Select Company details in the left sidebar.
- Click Add rule.
- Change Show to Skip to.
- Choose Your contact info as the destination.
- Set the condition to: Do you want to add company details? equals No.
People who answer No jump straight to contact info. People who answer Yes continue to the company details field.
What to choose in the answer/value box
- For dropdowns, radio buttons, multiple choice, and picture choice, select the answer from the dropdown in the Logic tab.
- For Yes/No or Legal fields, choose the boolean option shown in the Logic tab.
- For ratings, sliders, NPS, and numeric comparisons, enter the number to compare.
- For multi-select fields, use contains when you mean “this option was selected”.
Troubleshooting
- I cannot find the setting: open the top Logic tab in the editor, not the Form Settings modal.
- I cannot add logic: make sure the form has at least two fields.
- The first field is disabled: this is expected because rules need an earlier answer. Select the first field that should be shown, hidden, or skipped after that first answer.
- The rule does not fire: reselect the answer from the dropdown instead of typing a label by hand, then preview the form again.
- The destination is missing: skip targets must come later in the form. Reorder the destination field after the field you are skipping from.
Testing before publishing
Use Preview and test every branch: the answer that should skip, the answer that should not skip, and any required fields after the jump. This confirms the respondent lands on the right next field and can submit without being blocked by skipped required fields.
