Form Field Sets

A Form Field Set is a custom form to be used for bundle and inbox registrations.

Each Form Field Set contains one or more Form Fields. A form and all of its form fields are submitted in a single create request. The order of form fields in the array is the order they will be displayed.

Once created, a form field set can then be associated with one or more bundle(s) and/or inbox(s). Once associated, you will be required to submit well-formatted form-data when creating a bundle-registration or inbox registration.
