How can I put a persons name in the "Question Text" fields?

    Asked on March 13, 2021 at 5:21 PM

    I'm building a card form and would like to use the person's first name that they put in step 2... and dynamically insert it into the "Question Text" field for the rest of the questions.

    So for example, if Question 2 was:

    What's your name?

    And you put in:

    John Doe

    For Question 3, I want the title to say:

    Great name! What's your email John?

    Then for Question 4, I want the title to say:

    John, where do you live?

    I see other people doing this with their Jot Form Card Surveys...

    But I can't figure out how to do it.

    Could you please help?

    Thank you so much!

    Chris

    Update : I found out how to pull in the "Full Name" using a token...

    But I'd LOVE to be able to just pull in the "First Name".

    For example, right now... this is the name question...1615674519 604d3c9755303  Screenshot 10

    And the very next question is to ask for their email.

    But, I'd like to have it just call out their "First Name" - rather than their "Full Name" like you see here...

    Hi Chris,

    You can use the first name by adding first in the token that you are already using. Here is how you need to use it to display the first name only.

    {name:first}

    Let us know if you need further assistance

    Thanks
