    Is there a way to edit a live form without the edits being made live until they are all complete? I am adding fields and conditions, but our company is currently using the form with customers. I've working around it by adding fields and making them hidden. Thanks.

    I'm afraid the auto-save feature will always be enabled and will reflect all your changes immediately. This is how I would approach this if I'm in your shoes - I would clone the form that's currently being used by your customers and will make changes to that cloned copy.

    Once I'm done testing, changing things around, etc., I will then apply all the changes I did on the main form in one go since I already have it planned out while fiddling around with the clone.

    Or, if changing the Form URL (or re-embedding the form) is not an issue, I will use the cloned copy moving forward.
