When you create a form, you can map field inputs to standard Slate fields, like Preferred Name.
In the form, select Edit Form.
From the palette, select Text Box.
Configure the following settings:
Status: Set field to Active.
Type: Select the appropriate format type of question.
Label: This text will display as the instruction for the question.
System Field: Select a field type from the list. The options available depend on the form’s scope. A list of fields appears; select a field from this list.
Export Key: Populates based on the system field selected.
Size: Change the size to 32 so this field will match the other field widths.
Options: Leave blank
Select Save.
When a form registrant enters a value in this field, it is mapped to the system field you specified.
