Fields

Fields are the building blocks of your Good Grants setup. They collect information about applications, users, attachments, contributors, and referees. Good Grants provides a wide range of field types you can use to collect exactly the information you need from applicants. Many field types include additional configuration options, such as file size limits or minimum and maximum word counts.

For a full list of field types and their configuration options, see the Field types overview.
