The fields panel opens on the right.

Scroll down at the bottom, under **Miscellaneous fields**.

Drag and drop on your form the field named **Hidden**. You can drop it anywhere on your form. In this example, we drop it at the end of the form, just above the Submit button.

## Step 3: Set up the hidden fields

To set up a field, select it.

The settings panel opens on the left.

Fill it out with the following information:

### Hidden field #1

- Label = **Channel**
- Default value = **[channel]**

### Hidden field #2
