Create a FastField form from a Quickbase table

Create FastField forms based on your Quickbase table schema. When someone submits a response to a form created this way, responses are automatically saved in Quickbase. 

To create a new FastField form from a Quickbase table:

1. In Quickbase, go to the table you want to use.
2. Open the table settings, and then select Forms.
3. Select New FastField form.
   This opens FastField in a new tab.
4. Enter a name for your form, and then select the fields you want to include.
5. Select Save and Edit.
   This saves your changes and creates the form. You can now make changes to the form layout and settings. After you're done, people can start submitting responses. 

Limitations

During this open beta period, there are certain limitations to the integration.

Submission failure notifications

If a FastField form submission fails to upload a new or updated record to a Quickbase table, no alert is sent to notify anyone of this failure. An Upsert Failure log displays in the Submissions activity log within FastField, however.

We are planning to add notifications for upsert failures in the future.

Field mappings

Currently, the following fields cannot be mapped with complete accuracy between Quickbase and FastField.

• Multi-choice fields that pull choices from another field or table are mapped as Text fields with no choices to select.
• GPS fields do not map latitude and longitude coordinates to an Address field in Quickbase.
• Lookup/Reference fields cannot be mapped.
• User fields cannot be mapped.
• Attachment fields in Quickbase cannot be mapped to a Document Viewer field in FastField.
• Rating fields are not mapped to Quickbase when the N/A option is selected.
