Understand custom form title | Zoho Creator Help

Understand custom form title

The form title helps you assign different customized titles to the forms that will be displayed when the user is performing different tasks.

  • While adding record - The title that will be displayed when a user accesses the form to add a record.
  • While editing record - The title that will be displayed when a user is editing the existing record.

By default, the form title while adding the form and while editing the form will be same as the Form name.

Assume an organisation Zylker uses a Creator form Book a cab to handle the cab booking for its employees. It can customize the form title to display different names during the Booking of a cab and during the Revising a booking done earlier.

The default scenario in which the form name Book a cab is displayed.


When Make a cab booking is given as the form title in the While adding record field.

When Revise your cab booking is given as the form title in the While editing record field.

Things to know

  • Default values in the While adding record and While editing record will the same as the Form name.
  • In case when the custom form titles are not configure and you rename the form name using the Rename option, then the new form name will be reflected in the While adding record and While editing record fields. If you have configured custom form titles, then the Renaming the form will have no impact on the titles in While adding record and While editing record fields.
  • The custom form titles can have only 50 characters.
  • The custom form titles cannot be empty.
