Jotform’s Input Table element has an input type called Multi-type Columns. This allows you to set different input types for each column, such as Single Choice, Checkbox, Textbox, and Dropdown.
To set up Multi-type columns:
- Click your Input Table’s gear icon to open its properties panel.
- Go to the Fields tab.
- Select Multi-type Columns from the Input Type options.
Like the other input types, you can add, edit, and delete rows and columns — and much more with Multi-type columns.
Changing Row and Column Labels
Instead of going through the properties panel, you can directly change the Input Table’s row and column labels.
Adding New Rows and Columns
To add a new row or column to the Input Table, click +add row at the bottom or +add column on the right side.
Deleting Rows and Columns
Clicking the X icon next to a row label deletes that row. To delete a column, click the angle-down icon next to the column label then select Delete Column from the menu.
Changing Dropdown Options
You can set options for a dropdown type column by clicking the angle-down icon next to its label. Enter your desired options in the text field and click Save Changes.
Changing Column Types
Change a column type (i.e., Single Choice, Checkbox, Textbox, or Dropdown) by clicking on the angle-down icon and selecting an option from the menu.

Would be great if the Multi-type column had the numeric and currency textbox's available. Most of my input tables require a quantity or cost row.

Hi Team,
I am working on the input table (multi-type) and need help with below;
1. Is it possible to add a textarea instead of text box in one of the columns ?
2. Is it possible to set different column widths for each column ?
3. Does the data for each cell in the multi column gets stored in individual cells when connected to a google sheet (on integration)? Or does the input for the entire row gets added to a single cell ?
Currently the form i am developing requires data to be captured in a single row with multiple elements, the current input table restricts the use of different column width (ex need user to write more than the available column width so the text area needs to be scrollable or expandable.
Would be great if this could be solved. Thank you !

Hello
I would like the ability in an input table to enforce only one response per row.
I understand this cannot be done.
Would be fab if the developers added this option.

Hello, I am currently using the calendar element so that clients can choose a date for booking an event, and I have set the default time to be 4 pm. However, I do not want a time slot. I only offer one event per day, and I want them to enter the time they choose for their event in the next element. Can you please help?

1. Can I set the condition of each check box ? For example, you can not choose some selected check boxes. Because I want to create a table with company names in columns. And time (like 9am, 10am, ...) in Row. But some time and some company are not available.
2. When I choose the check box, I can not return it. It can not cancel. How to fix it?

How do I get the row names into the table view. For example, I need to be able to see Service Quality and the user selected values, then Cleanliness and the user selected values. It doesn't help my user to just see the user selected values without the row and column labels.
