How to use labels with your forms

Labels are keywords that you can apply to your forms to keep them organized. Once you add a label to a form, you can filter the Forms page by that label to quickly find what you need. While similar to folders, labels offer more flexibility as you can assign more than one label to a form.

Take note

• Forms, automations, and campaigns share the same labels. Any labels created on the Forms page are available to use with automations and campaigns
• Edits made to labels on the Forms page are also reflected on automations and campaigns pages
• Labels are edited or deleted from the Forms page only. Learn how to delete a label from your account
