Email field

Use email_input to collect an email address. Add it when your form needs a respondent’s email.

Configuration

These properties are specific to email_input. For shared field properties, see Shared field properties.

Name	Type	Required	Default	Description
`placeholder`	string	No	None	Hint text inside the empty input. Supports `{{field}}` piping.
`defaultValue`	string	No	None	Prefills the input. May contain a `{{hidden_name}}` reference.
`verifyEmail`	boolean	No	`false`	When `true`, the respondent must prove access to the address before continuing. Available on the Business plan. Requires `verificationId`.
`verificationId`	string	Only when `verifyEmail` is `true`	None	Stable id for the verified field, 1–128 characters. Keep it the same if you rename the field.
`blockRiskyEmails`	boolean	No	`false`	Rejects addresses judged risky.

Validation

A required field with no answer blocks the respondent from continuing. An invalid email address format also blocks the page. When verifyEmail is enabled, the respondent must verify the address before continuing. If blockRiskyEmails is enabled and the address is judged risky, the submission is rejected.

Submission value

The answer is stored as a string containing the email address.
