Add blocks
...
to your form
- Choices. This block loads all the competencies in a given competency framework and then asks the user to select ONE (1) and rate themselves and/or provide feedback. It's useful when you only require the user to provide on competencies of their choice.
- Competency. This block loads all the competencies in a given competency framework and then asks the user to rate themselves and/or provide feedback on ALL competencies. If you plan on dividing your competencies into multiple sections (e.g. with headers), note that you'll need to add one (1) competency framework per section.
- Feedback. This blocks will display text areas where users can enter free-form text. It is used to collect general feedback such as strengths, weaknesses, and so on.
- Header. This block will display a category in the form. Everything included below the header (and until the next header) will be in a category that can be expanded / collapsed.
- Static. This block allows you to enter static text. It's generally used to display instructions for the form. It can contain placeholders as per the following:
- Standard User Profile Fields: {{assignee.fieldname}}
- Custom User Profile Fields: {{assignee.profile_field_fieldname}}
