Secondary Fields and Data Validation

Some of the Secondary Fields may seem redundant next to the Primary Fields. For example, you could capture a phone number, email, or address in a Text Field component. Unqork offers Secondary Fields to address something called data validation. Data validation means making sure the information you collect is valid. If you ask for an email address, you want your end-user to input something formatted like an email address. Secondary components, like the Email component, have built-in data validation settings. These settings make sure the data entered by your end-user is what you intended to collect. This minimizes human error and helps you get the data you want.
