There has to be a way to pull a report that lists all of the fields on a Custom Form? If I click on "Custom Forms", than "Custom Fields" and filter...I don't see anything in here that would be able filter just the fields on a certain form? Brett Robison Cengage

Hey Monique! It's been a while since I've been asked this one. I just hopped into a category report and added a collections column to show the fields. Here's the text mode I used for this: displayname=Fields listdelimiter= listmethod=nested(categoryParameters).lists textmode=true type=iterate valuefield=parameter:name valueformat=HTML Good luck!

You folks are all awesome! The responses here have been great. You could also do a parameter report and just filter off the category. The Workfront database has a lot of callbacks to the old AtTask structure, stuff that was here waaaaaay before I was hired. For instance, "Category" refers to Custom Forms Parameter refers to custom fields Parameter options refers to the values of custom fields. You can check out more at our API explorer, and it'll also give you a good understanding of how the tables in the database communicate with each other:

I always enjoy a Friday challenge =). 1. Create a Parameter report 2. Under Report Settings -> Report Prompts, choose 'Parameter > Name' 3. Create a new column with the following text displayname=Form Options listdelimiter= listmethod=nested(parameterOptions).lists textmode=true type=iterate valuefield=value valueformat=HTML Try it out and let me know if it works for you.

I don't see a way either. When I need to do that I either just open the form and obviously the fields are all there. Or if I go to the Custom Fields tab like in your example, I just do a Ctl+f browser search for the form. But I agree with you I don't find a field in that Filter selection to filter on the form (or many other fields for that matter).
