Useful fields and questions

All these questions are available to all groups using the the XRUK network

When you use these questions in your forms/events the data you collect will be added to subscribers record.

You can also create your own questions in a form or event, but these will just be held within the 'action' itself (this is more suited to temporary information e.g. to ask people what shifts they could cover when stewarding for an action with options of 12-2pm,2-4pm, 4-6pm)

If you need help on this, please book time on our Training Request Form, or contact the Action Network Data Team.
