We do have this in a workaround type of way I believe, it’s not as direct as “checkbox” (probably should be updated to reflect that). Instead we have the select list and the option to select multiple. This would accomplish the same end result as a checkbox.

Let me know if this doesn’t work for the field mapping!

I know that but in Mailchimp i can’t map those multi-selection since the only one that allow multi-selection is the checkbox (in the MailChimp form design)
