Moving Classic Forms to the Design Editor
Starting with the 20A release (February 2020), you will not be able to create new assets using the Classic Form Design editor or copy assets created in the Classic Form Design editor. However, all legacy form assets will continue to be editable using the same Classic Form Design Editor. Users will be able to edit these forms and save those changes on the form as they do at present. Additionally, classic forms will still function in their landing pages and capture form submission data. We recommend customers start preparing in advance for this transition. Customers can leverage the Save As Template and Save As features for their classic forms to save them as responsive forms in our new Design Editor. Learn more in our product notice.
