# Long text

A long text block is a question type that provides an editable text box format, allowing participants to write their own answer in their own words.

The Long Text block options are:

* **Require a response:** Toggle on/off to require respondents to submit an answer to this question block
* **Limit max characters:** Toggle on/off to enable/disable a maximum character limit for responses
* **Limit min characters:** Toggle on/off to enable/disable a minimum character amount for responses
* **Auto resize text area:** Toggle off to enable manual resizable text box area. Toggle on to automatically resize text box area.
* **Text Placeholder:** Enter a text placeholder to display in the response box
* **Disable Text analysis:** Toggle on/off to enable/disable text analysis for the block

**Tip:** By default, text questions are processed by our NLP (AI) analysis tools for key words, terms, and topic clusters. In some cases (such as duplicate or publish-only blocks, or support files) you may prefer to skip processing to avoid adding unnecessary items and weights. All text remains searchable.
