File Upload
The file upload question type allows you to collect a file which a respondent uploads, with respondents being able to upload a jpg, jpeg, png, gif, pdf, doc, docx, ppt, pptx, odt, avi, ogg, m4a, mov, mp3, mp4, mpg, wav or wmv.
You can choose to limit which files can be uploaded per question, for example if you are asking a respondent to upload a CV, then you may want to only allow a PDF or DOC/DOCX.
You can download a zip of all the uploaded files on the “Responses Screen”, or you can download uploaded files individually.
You can add up to 20 file upload questions per ONFORM on Solo and Team plans, and on the Enterprise plan you can ask an unlimited number. The total storage space per ONFORM account varies depending on your plan, for the Solo plan it is 5GB, Team 10GB and Enterprise up to Unlimited.
Here are some example File Upload questions:
