    Is there a way to have multiple contacts linked to one record without having to have multiple Contacts fields? In other words, can I put more than one contact into a Contact field? I have a Form where I need to put an unknown number of contacts in a record—usually 1 to 4.

    Hi Calion,

    You could add a Link to Form field that links to another form that has a list of contacts in it. That’s the only way you would be able to have an infinite number of references to contacts without having to create a separate Contact field for each.

    Okay, thanks. Consider this a feature request then.

    Okay, now that I’ve actually tried this, I see that my feature request isn’t necessary. However, I’ve uncovered an oddity: I can’t select existing records in the Contacts form that I’ve created. This leads to duplicate contacts in the Contacts form, which seems counterproductive.

    Nevermind, I figured it out: Tap the “checkbox” icon, and select the contact(s) you want.
