Format multiple text boxes in a questionnaire to ask users to provide short text answers. For example, in a questionnaire for job candidates, you ask users to provide their university major, previous employer, and a name of their own business if they have one.

Before you begin: Add a question of the multi-text boxes type to your questionnaire. For more information, see Adding a question to a question page.

Note: Only standard Pega Platform applications support questions with multiple text boxes. Applications based on Cosmos React do not display questions with multiple text boxes.
