How to Copy Fields From One Form to Another

May 31, 2026

Jotform’s Field Manager App makes it easy to copy fields between forms without having to recreate them manually. This can save time when you’re building similar forms or reusing questions across multiple forms.

With just a few clicks, you can transfer fields from one form to another and continue building without starting from scratch.


You can transfer fields from one form to another without recreating them manually. Here’s how:

  1. Go to the Field Manager App, and in the center of the page, click on Manage Fields.

That’s it. Once copied, the fields will automatically appear in the destination form. Newly copied fields will be marked with a New label, making them easy to identify.
