Custom Object Fields available in Forms

Allow Custom Object fields to work in forms so that we can have more options for creating/updating Custom Objects.
For example, using a Chamber of Commerce: Having a member Custom Object with fields for organization information, membership level, renewal date, etc. This would allow us to build forms for the members to update certain points of information about their organization as they change that would be used in a public-facing member roster (that gets populated by the Custom Object list once automations are in place). This would also allow Chamber staff to manually update renewal and status information.

I need this badly. I have 3 clients that use custom objects in different ways and every client needs the custom fields on a form so that the data can be captured automatically. Also need the option to have an Object field show up in the calendar title and location (i.e Inspection address in the location field). Yes the inspection address can be different than the contact address so both fields are needed.

Brent Attaway inspired me to go farther. For now, I solved this problem with a little code and a webhook. Works well but crazy this is not already present. Let's go GHL!

This would make life so much easier. At this current moment and state, not being able to create forms with custom objects and their respective fields, forces users to update the objects and field manually.
Having a form submitted with custom objects/fields would auto populate the objects/fields in the platform.
Doing this manually instead is a head-scratcher. We need to build forms with our created custom objects and their respective fields so that, on submission, it fills out the custom fields in the platform.

we need this. I would love ot be able to have a dropdown of object types on a form as well. For example if you have RENTAL EQUIPMENT - and have Equipments as an Object - I would love to be able to get a dropdown of equipment types so they can select on a form.
Thanks!!

Just posted again about this in the fb group. This has got to be a major priority at this point. No? Bump this to the front lines of implementation please

Brent Attaway, you are correct. The skateboard model has outlived its usefulness. https://www.loom.com/share/e2210e4b9300403183a178d29f029daf?sid=d14d5cba-1a14-4f25-9910-117b7e44250f

100%. For real estate making offers on objects (properties) , negotiations, contracts, lost, etc. seeing where things are in the pipeline is a must as well!

yes please! would love to have a form that will create an object and be able to assign it to a user who filled the form out. The way it sits how you manually have to do everything which is not very useful

🙏 please please please! we are using like 1/10th the power of custom objects if we can't use them with forms, quizzes, and surveys.

I am going through a scenario where this is needed:
Use Case #1:
My client collects anonymous data from people (via form smh) and assigns a unique ID instead of a typical name/email to the set of data (for privacy). I want them to be able to enter this anonymous data electronically into a form and it be stored in the custom object database I created. *Because by law they can't collect email or phone at time of service.
Use Case #2:
I also want them to be able to upload the email/phone (once they acquire it at a later date), and then associate a contact with the anonymous data in the custom object table.
Final Result:
Whenever they want to look at anonymous data, they'll go to the Custom Object tab. Whenever they're viewing an individual contact profile, they should be able to see the custom object data if it's been associated with that particular contact.

I would love to see custom objects added to the [object dropdown] (now available for standard objects only) in the forms/ survey Builder, so i can add custom fields from custom objects to forms & Surveys (especially surveys cause of logic feature). Important use case to enrich custom object data.
