Quick update from last week's release:

minInArray / maxInArray now return related fields
You're no longer limited to just computed numeric values—you can now return data from the same array item that produced the min/max result.

Example:
👉 Get the name of the cheapest item, not just its price
👉 Filter + return in one expression

New signature supports:

returnField
filterCondition
both combined

Plus: a new Multi-Step Form Wizard demo

Quick update from last week's release:

API to Customize Expression Syntax

If you've used SurveyJS expressions before, you're probably used to writing things like: {age} >= 18, or using dynamic text like: Hello, {firstName}. Until now, that syntax was fixed. With this release, you can fully customize how those expressions are written globally.

1. Change variable delimiters

By default, SurveyJS uses {} to reference variables.
Now you can switch to any format that fits your project:
🔹{{variable}}
🔹{% variable %}
🔹%variable%

2. Change or disable $ for element property access

SurveyJS recently added the ability to access element properties inside expressions. Now you can:
🔹Replace $ with something else (e.g. @)
🔹Or disable this feature entirely

Survey Creator: Invalid Values Are Now Preserved

Previously, if you entered an invalid value in the Property Grid, it would just get cleared. Now:

🔹Invalid values are kept
🔹You can fix them later without losing progress
🔹They’re stored temporarily and not added to the JSON until valid

Some forms stay UI. Others quietly become rule engines. 🎨⚙️

SurveyJS v2.5.14 is here!

We've just shipped v2.5.14, bringing a useful new feature to Multi-Select Matrix question, plus important bug fixes and minor enhancements across the ecosystem.

New: Randomize Rows in Multi-Select Matrix

You can now randomize rows each time a survey loads. Simply set: "rowOrder": "random".

This works in:

- Form Library (via JSON schema)
- Survey Creator (Rows → Row order → Random)

Perfect for reducing order bias in surveys and assessments.

Hello everyone 👋

Quick update from last week��s release:
The JSON Editor now suggests fixes for invalid property values using Levenshtein distance.

When a property value does not match any of the allowed options (for example, an enum value), the editor compares the entered value against valid alternatives and suggests the closest match. For example, if you mistype an enum-based property value—such as "emial" instead of "email":

The JSON Editor detects that "emial" is not a valid inputType and suggests "email". You can apply the suggested correction with a single click.

Hey folks,

We built a backend service for working with SurveyJS forms called the SurveyJS JSON Schema Validator. It validates SurveyJS form schemas and ensures that user submissions conform to them.

Use it to:

🔸Detect structural, syntactic, and logical errors in survey definitions

🔸Ensure required questions are answered and data types match

🔸Catch issues early in development or before persisting survey data

It runs as a standalone service locally or in Docker, exposing a simple HTTP API. You can integrate it into your backend workflow for automated validation.

SurveyJS v2.5.8 is out!

This release brings smarter input masks, a new API for navigating the survey structure, and a solid batch of fixes:
1️⃣ Input mask upgrades
Pattern-masked fields now support custom placeholders. The placeholder is shown until focus or typing starts, then switches to pattern hints.
2️⃣ Better validation for masked inputs
Incomplete pattern-masked values are no longer silently cleared on lost focus. Instead, users can return to the field to complete the input. No more accidental data loss.
3️⃣ New API: getOwner() to traverse the survey element tree
Available on all survey elements, it lets you move up the survey hierarchy (question → panel → page → survey) to identify higher-level elements.
