Format Type	Defines the type of input to store. Default format type is Text. Available Data Types: Text - format the value as text Numeric - accepts a numeric value (See Format documentation) Date - accepts a date type value Time - accepts a time type value Checkbox - appears as a checkbox to check Dropdown - appears as a dropdown menu to select options Autocomplete - autocompletes any known phrases Password - obscures any alphanumerical value into a password File - Accept file upload and render a file download link Image - Accept image file upload and render a thumbnail URL - Convert value to an URL Hidden - Hidden column for storing formular value Custom - Use custom setting to configure the column
Format	Defines the format to show data on the spreadsheet based on the chosen format type. Numeric - Key in format accepted by numbrojs library. (For example, 0.00 is to create 2 decimal places) Date - Key in format accepted by moment.js library. (Default value: DD/MM/YYYY) Time - Key in format accepted by moment.js library.(Default value: h:mm:ss a) Dropdown - Key in Form ID that contains the equivalent dropdown element.

Name	Description
Enable Header Sorting?	Determines if users can sort spreadsheet data by column in ascending or descending order.
Data Order Field ID	Field to keep the ordering sequence. Must correspond with a field id in the target form.
Readonly	Defines if the entire spreadsheet is editable.

Name	Description
Validator	Attach a Validator plugin to validate the input value. Please see Form Validator. When will validation takes place? Validation will takes place whenever form is submitted except when it is submitted as "Save as Draft".
Min Number of Row Validation (Integer)	Defines the minimum number of rows required for input.
Max Number of Row Validation (Integer)	Defines the maximum number of rows possible for input.
Error Message	Error message to be shown when row requirements set above is not met.

Special Function

FORMDATA(formDefId, primaryKey, fieldName) in Spreadsheet "Formula" column.

where:

formDefId: The form id of the source form containing the setup data to 'pull' from.
primaryKey: The dependent pulldown field id in your spreadsheet design, that provides the WHERE condition to search the data to populate.
fieldName: The field id of the source form to populate in this spreadsheet column based on the above 'primaryKey' value.

Use this function to 'pull' and populate a spreadsheet cell based on available data in other forms.

For example, to make spreadsheet pull and display the population value after the user picks the city name (pulldown menu), use FORMDATA("city_formId",select_city,"population") where 'select_city' is the first field id in your spreadsheet.
