Error Detection and Recommendations Added to Forms and Surveys

TL;DR

HighLevel now flags configuration errors, offers setup recommendations, and tracks asset stats when saving Forms, Surveys, and Quizzes.

No migration is required; the checks run automatically on both new and existing assets.

Who this affects

HighLevel has not confirmed which plan tiers or user roles are affected by this update.

Any operator or team member building or updating Forms, Surveys, and Quizzes will encounter these tools.

What changed

HighLevel updated the builder environment across Forms, Surveys, and Quizzes with the following capabilities:

• Automatic error detection triggers upon saving, surfacing issues inside a dedicated modal and directly beside the affected field.
• Clicking an error inside the modal jumps directly to the field that needs fixing.
• Resolved issues are automatically struck off the error list in real time as corrections are made.
• Error detection checks validation rules for custom field creation, identifies duplicate custom fields, and checks form, survey, and quiz elements.
• A Recommendations tool flags placeholder URLs, unedited default custom field names, test mode payment settings, and bot protection status.
• Recommendations can be toggled on or off inside the Settings section.
• A dedicated Insights tab displays conditional logic counts, custom field counts, auto-responder status, email notification status, and the current payment configuration mode.
• The features apply to both existing and newly created Forms, Surveys, and Quizzes.

HighLevel has not confirmed rollout status, plan gating, or whether any legacy behaviors are broken or replaced.

Where to find it

HighLevel has not published the exact top-level menu navigation for this update.

Within the builder for any Form, Survey, or Quiz, the error modal triggers upon clicking save. The Recommendations toggle is located inside the builder's Settings section, and the new metrics appear under a dedicated Insights tab.

How agencies will use this

An agency builder setting up a lead intake survey inside a client sub-account hits save before handing it off. The new error modal flags a validation error on a newly created custom field and highlights a duplicate custom field elsewhere in the survey.

The builder clicks the error directly inside the modal, jumps to the offending element, fixes the issue, and sees the item strike off the list in real time.

Before publishing, the builder checks the Recommendations panel to confirm the form is not using placeholder URLs and that payments are not still running in test mode. Finally, they open the Insights tab to verify that conditional logic counts, auto-responder status, and email notification configurations are active.

Our take

HighLevel marked this as a major update, though they did not state the specific reason for that classification.

In practice, this is a practical quality-of-life improvement. Catching test-mode payment gateways, duplicate custom fields, and missing redirect URLs before an asset goes live eliminates common setup oversights that break funnels.
