Prefill
Use: Deployed
Informs the user that information from their profile has been used to prefill form fields.
Examples
Intro
Note: Since you’re signed in to your account, we can prefill part of your application based on your account details. You can also save your application in progress and come back later to finish filling it out.
Step
We've prefilled some of your information from your account. If you need to correct anything, you can edit the form fields below.
Usage
When to use
- When prefilling information from the user’s profile. These messages communicate to the user that their profile information has been leveraged to pre-populate the form that they are filling out. The Intro variation, used on the Introduction page, also informs the user that their progress will be saved as they complete the form.
When to consider something else
- Unauthenticated users. Users who are unauthenticated should not see this message as we cannot use their profile data to prefill the form.
