# How To Customize a Form Or Survey

You can edit a specific form or survey to fit your needs. From content to stylistic changes, you can completely customize the appearance and information in a form or survey. Follow these steps to create your perfect form or survey:

**Step 1:** Navigate to the Form Builder (or Survey Builder) from the menu on the left side of your screen. Here we'll show you how to edit a Form, but the process is the same for the Survey Builder.

**Step 2:** Click on the Form you want to edit, or Create New Form.

**Step 3:** On the right hand side you'll see all the options for editing your Form.

* Under "Fields", you can click and drag standard and custom fields onto the form/survey. After you click and drag, click on the specific field and the right menu will now allow you to change the field text.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://software-help-docs.gitbook.io/knowledge-base/software-guide/forms/how-to-customize-a-form-or-survey.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
