Field group
You can place a "Field group" field to include other fields in that field, and collapse it to hide those fields, or expand it to show those fields.
When there are many fields, you can organize them in several "Field group" fields.

Usage Examples
If there are many fields, you can categorize them in field groups and collapse these field groups. By doing so, fields are well organized and you can easily locate them.
You can also set permission to each field group to limit users who can view or edit them. The specified permission is applied to all the fields in the group.
