Page byline item
A page with a form shows a Forms item in its byline, under the title. It tells readers how many forms the page holds and opens a panel with each form's answers, so you can check them without scrolling through the page.
#What it shows
Where | What you see |
|---|---|
The byline | 1 form or N forms. Nothing when the page has no forms. |
The panel | One row per form on the page, with its name and how many fields it has. |
A form, once selected | A Responses list: who filled it in, when, and every answer. |
#The Responses list
Row | What it shows |
|---|---|
Filled in by | The person who last saved this form's answers. |
Filled in | When they saved them. |
One row per field | The field's label and its answer, in the order the fields appear on the page. Choices show their label and colour, people, pages and spaces show by name, and a link opens when you select it. An empty field reads No response. |
New on 13 October 2026. The Responses list now matches the Forms side panel: it says who filled the form in and when, shows choices with their colours and people by name, keeps the page's field order, and uses each field's current label if it has been renamed on the page.
A form filled in before 13 October 2026 may show Updated by and Updated instead. See Who filled in a form.
#Who sees it
Setting | Where | What it does |
|---|---|---|
Capabilities, then Forms (Visible or Hidden) | Capable global settings, Capabilities tab | Hides the Forms navigation item and the Forms byline item for everyone on the site. |
Forms (Auto, Always or Never) | Space settings, Space Capability Settings | Shows or hides the Forms byline item in one space. Space admins only. |
#A few things that catch people out
Anyone who can view the page can read every answer on it, in the page, the byline and the side panel. You cannot restrict the answers separately from the page.
The byline shows one page. To see every page's answers to the same form, open the form in Capable Forms. See See who filled in a form in Confluence.
In the standalone Forms app the byline item only appears where a space admin has set Forms to Always.
Fields placed outside a Form container are not listed.
