Formstack empowers anyone to quickly and easily build custom forms without any specialized skills or coding. But in order to achieve the same level of customization once the data is collected, customers needed to be complex technical skills to stitch together third-party integrations.
As the only product designer on my cross-functional team, I was responsible for the end-to-end design process.

PROBLEM STATEMENT
My research showed that the feature should focus on:
Give customers with more control over customization by allowing customers to choose which form fields are shown in the export.
Improve the style and format of the pdf by allowing customers to make their export look more like the form.
Improve the experience of using integrations by making all of the data collected available to our API.

This particular feature had a few additional design challenges. Early in the design process, it was decided that this would be the first project released in a new design system. Additionally a few days before handoff, it was decided that the customization features would be gated to a certain subscription level (the existing export feature was available to all Formstack customers).
Customers can customize the fields that appear in the export and can add a logo to their export.
The overall style of the export looks professional and modern with more efficient use of space, better page breaks, and maintains the information hierarchy of the form.
All fields are available to integrations making it easier for customers to set up since there is 1:1 parity.
Additional topics that I can discuss in a walkthrough of this project:
