Service Request Forms are the forms used to gather briefs / project information from your clients prior to the start of a project.
Depending on the service you provide (i.e. web design services, graphic design services, web development services, writing services, etc.) service request forms differ based on what information is needed.
How to Customize Service Request Forms:
On your Dashboard, go to Services > All Services
Select the service you want to edit or head over to the top right and click on Create Service (should you need to create a new one)
Edit / Fill in the necessary Service Details
Click on Next
Adjust the Pricing Details
Click on Next
On the Request Form, you have the flexibility of adding different fields and adding conditions.
By Default, you'll be provided with the Title text field. You can change the name if you want to (i.e. Project Title, Title, Project Name, etc.) This will be the unique project name to be used across the platform.

How to Add Conditions to Service Request Forms:
We've covered this in another article here - How To Use Conditional Rules for Your Request Forms
It's important to note that when adding conditions to your forms, make sure to plan it out so that it's easier to connect fields.
Conditions to Service Request forms have two functions:
Show Fields
Hide Fields
Depending on how you want to structure your form, you can show or hide fields based on the conditions you set: When client selects option 2, then show this field.
