4.	How many users can I add to a form?

a. There is no limit for how many users can be assigned to a form. However, given that access to a
form requires the use of a single passphrase, we recommend treating the form as any other
secured and confidential form. Sharing the passphrase with too many people may become a
security risk. It is recommended that only people directly involved with the creation and
submission of the form have access to the passphrase and form.

5.	How do I assign a Primary Agent/Consultant to my form?

a. The process for assigning a Primary Agent/Consultant is done via the Role Sponsorship tab in
CDX. For additional details see the Quick Reference Guide - User Roles and Access on the
Resources section of the Home page under the Quick Reference Guides.
