| Field                   | Description                                                                                                                                                 |
| ----------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Zone Name               | Give your zone a sensible name to group the emotions. For example Anger, Frustrated may belong in a "Unhappy" zone.                                         |
| Color                   | Select a colour to represent the zone. For Example "Unhappy" zone could be Red.                                                                             |
| Show Wellness Followup  | This allows a second level of customisation. For example a learner may check-in "Unhappy", the follow-up can ask "Why are you unhappy?"                     |
| Allow FreeText Followup | Clicking Show Wellness Followup enabled this setting. This will allow the follow up to be presented in a free text answer, allowing for more configuration. |
