Text input field

Note

The task interface configuration guide describes the features of the HTML/JS/CSS editor. You can also try creating a text input field in Template Builder.

To add a multi-line text field to a task, use the {{field type="textarea" name="<output field name>"}} component. Example:

{{field type="textarea" name="result" width="270px" rows=5}}

Add a field of string type in the output data description. Example:

{
  "result": {
    "type": "string",
    "required": true
  }
}
