Field Logic

Several of our endpoints support providing logic around field data to determine if the field will show up on the form or if the action will be performed after the form is submitted. All endpoints that support field logic will accept or return a logic property. The data passed in the logic property must follow the below format.

{
  ...
  "logic": {
    "action": "show",
    "conditional": "any",
    "checks": [
      {
        "condition": "equals",
        "field": "<Field ID>",
        "option": "<Option Value>"
      }
    ]
  }
  ...
}

The action property accepts two values: show or hide. With the show value, Formstack will show the field when the logic is true. With the hide value, Formstack will hide the field when the logic is true.

The conditional property accepts two values: any or all. With the any value, the logic will return true as long as any of the checks pass. With the all value, the logic will return true only when all of the checks pass.

The condition property accepts four values: equals, notequals, greaterthan, or lessthan.
