Required Question Message Customization in Forms

Questions can be made required unconditionally by selecting the Required property under the General category.

Alternatively, you can make a question required conditionally by following these steps:

1. Select the question you want to make conditionally required.
2. Under the Conditions category, locate the Make the question required if property.
3. Click the Magic wand icon to open a popup for condition configuration.
4. In the popup, select the triggering element's ID (its Question name property value).
5. Choose a condition from the drop-down menu, such as Empty, Not Empty, Equals, or Greater than.
6. Enter or select the triggering value.
7. Click Apply.

If the condition is met and a respondent attempts to skip the question without giving an answer, they will see an error message.

The default error message for required questions is "Response required." To customize this message for a specific question, follow the steps below:

1. Select the question you want to customize.
2. Under the Validation category, locate the Error message for required questions setting.
3. Enter a new error message in the input field.

You can prevent users from skipping a specific page by making it required. A required page ensures that respondents provide an answer to at least one question on it.

A page cannot be made required unless you specify a condition which will make it one when evaluated to true. To make a page of your survey conditionally required, follow these steps:

1. Select the page you want to make required.
2. Under the Conditions category, locate the Make the page required if property.
3. Click the Magic wand icon to open a popup for condition configuration.
4. In the popup, select the triggering element's ID (its Question name property value).
5. Choose a condition from the drop-down menu, such as Empty, Not Empty, Equals, or Greater than.
6. Enter or select the triggering value.
7. Click Apply.

If the condition is met, and a respondent attempts to skip the page without answering at least one question, they will see an error message "Response required: answer at least one question.".
