Recall

Recall lets you personalize your form by inserting previous answers into later questions, descriptions, and the final page. For example, if question 1 asks "What's your name?", question 2 can say "Hi @Name, tell us more about yourself."

#How It Works

Type @ in any question title, description, or final page text to open the recall menu. It shows all eligible fields from previous pages. Select one to insert a recall chip — a styled tag that gets replaced with the respondent's actual answer when they fill out the form.

#Inserting a Recall

1. Click into a question title, description, or the final page title/message
2. Type @ to open the recall menu
3. Select a field from the list (or keep typing to filter)
4. A recall chip appears inline in your text

The chip inherits the formatting (bold, font size) of the surrounding text.

#What Can Be Recalled

Most question types that produce a concise text value can be recalled:

#Rules

• Only fields from previous pages are available — the respondent must have already answered the question
• On the first page, no fields are available yet. The recall menu will explain this
• The final page can recall all fields in the form since it comes after everything
• If a recalled answer is empty (e.g. an optional question was skipped), the recall chip shows the original question text as a fallback

#Recall with Polly AI Pro

When using Polly AI to generate or edit forms, you can ask it to include recall references. For example:

• "Add a question that greets the user by the name they entered in question 1"
• "Update the final page to thank the respondent by name"

Polly will automatically insert the correct recall references.

#Tips

• Use recall on the final page for a personal touch — "Thanks @Name, we'll be in touch!"
• Recall works great with conditional logic — personalize follow-up questions based on earlier answers
• Keep recalled text short — full textarea responses may not read well inline
