Joining this discussion. We use forms for our internal members, hence we do not require certain parts of the form. Please allow us to remove them.

Agree. This is for internal team members who are well known and forcing them to type an email address is wasted effort.

Ditto. Remove, hide, rename… I’ll take anything to get it off there.

I’ve created custom fields to contain the name of the requester, and at this point I’ll have to instruct users to input the data twice or to ignore the “Name” field. This is sloppy and a poor user experience for our clients when using these forms. I’m debating writing a custom form integration to work around this issue (time consuming, but better for users)

This is actually confusing our users because the workflow we have makes no sense to have a name. Please remove these as mandatory.

+1. Name/Email makes no sense for many workflows. The default can’t even be mapped to a custom field, which in my case means I have to ask for name twice!

Piling on. It makes users and coworkers less likely to use the forms because the email is a strange field to ask for

Seconding this request. It’s clunky for internal stuff where those details don’t matter, and makes the forms unnecessarily long.

+1 On this. We use forms internally name and email are not necessary.

Please allow for removal of these fields on the forms…or at the very least allow them to be renamed. It is super annoying having these fields on a form where every other part can be built to customer requirements, seems very odd that these two are locked down. Many thanks for your consideration!

I would really like to see tight integration with Gravity Forms. Asana forms are very weak thus we are building our own in GF. It would be nice to have a GF plugin to hook directly into Asana like other apps do such as Slack.

Any update on when this can be implemented? This seems like a no-brainer to have the option to turn these fields off. It doesn’t make sense for internal employees to have to fill in an email field for requests.

You removed my suggestion and gave me this link which doesn’t resolve my issue.

The requirement for email and name should be ONLY optional if the user is not signed into Asana. How hard is it to autofill a signed in user?

It’s a tad disappointing those cannot be deleted. It would be nice to at least have the ability to map it directly to a custom attribute. Currently, to map the email to a custom attribute, you have to ask the user to identify himself 3 times(1x name + 2 email). This doesn’t make any practical sense at all as it’s one of the key information you want to map into a custom field.

I’m here for this…forms are useless to me right now, also would need the ability for a due date to be added.
