Title: Caldera form, civi case and custom fields integration
ThreadText: # Caldera form, civi case and custom fields integration
  
  (Asked by: username_0 on 2022-03-11)
  
  I've set up a caldera form which collects information and creates a Civicase.
  
  I've managed to set up the form which is collecting information as a particular case type called 'Get involved'.
  
  I've created a couple of custom fields to collect check box information:
  
  'Governing\_council\_check' and 'Standing Committee'.
  
  I've connected the custom fields to the form questions in the Custom Fields section of the form processors section.
  
  When I come to export the case however, from my case dashboard, the fields are returned blank regardless of how the form was filled out.
  
  I'm not sure what to try and would appreciate any advice or areas to check.
  
  Here are the custom fields in caldera forms.

  Thank you for your help. There was an error with the data types which meant they weren't mapping properly - namely that 'checkbox' in form maps to 'drop down select' in civi if you want to allow more than one option selected.
