Iโ€™d like to communicate how fields should be filled out. Field descriptions are a natural vehicle for that message, but they donโ€™t display for shared form views.

EDIT: this feature already exists via help text

I see that it's already in product, but can someone tell me how to do it?

Hi there!

At miniExtensions, we've created a third-party form that integrates seamlessly with Airtable and offers a variety of tools to customize each fieldโ€™s description. In addition to text, you can add images, links, formatted text, and more. The description can also be displayed as a tooltip or be positioned at the top or bottom of the field to best suit your needs:
