Number Input component

Overview

Number Input component supports numeric input, including step, minimum, and maximum attributes, and range type functionality.

Add Number input components into a page to capture numeric input in a Flow.

General settings

Configure the general settings for the component.

Setting	Description
Name	Enter a name for the Number input component.
Label	Enter a label for the Number input component. The label is displayed above the component by default. Do not enter a label if you do not require this text to be shown.
Step size	Allows you to enter a number that defines how much the value increases or decreases when using the up or down arrows.
Display as slider	Allows you to choose whether the Number input appears as a slider or an input box. When you select the slider option, the Minimum number and Maximum number validation settings determine the slider’s start and end values.
Editable	Specify if the component can accept user input.
Autocomplete Tokens	When you configure tokens for the autocomplete attribute, the browser suggests saved information—such as email addresses and first or last names—for those components when you run a Flow. Use valid token values such as “on”, “off”, or a space-separated list of tokens that describe the type of information the browser should suggest. You can find the full list of valid tokens at MDN Web Docs.
Placeholder text	Enter a short hint to display in the field, such as an example of the expected value or format.
Help information about this component	Display help text directly below the component, for example to provide further information on how to use the component.

State

1. Select the value that you wish to save the Number input data into.

2. Save the component state into: Click Select or create a new value to select an existing value or create a new value.

   The type of Number input component presented to a user is determined by the content kind of the value selected in this field. See Value content kinds.

Validation

Add client-side page validation to the component. You cannot add validation if you are saving state data into a boolean or object value.

1. Click Add Validation.
2. Select the validation Type.
3. Enter a valid Value for the validation type.
4. Enter a feedback Message to show to the user if the validation criteria is not met.
5. Click Update to add the validation item.

Setting	Description
Required	Specify if the component requires user input before the next step in the flow can be navigated to. For example, a user must complete the Number input for this field before they are allowed to progress in the flow. 1. Switch on the toggle to set the component as requiring Number input from a user before they can progress in the flow, such as to the next page for example. A red asterisk is displayed next to the field name to indicate it is required. 2. Switch off the toggle to allow a user to progress in the flow even if they have not entered any Number input into the component, for example if the field is optional.
Type	Select the type of validation to apply to the component. 1. Minimum number: A user must enter more than this value into the field. 2. Maximum number: A user is unable to enter more than this value into the field. 3. Regular expression pattern: Apply Regular Expression (Regex) validation to the component.
Value	Enter the validation criteria. 1. Minimum number: Enter a minimum number or character limit for the component. 2. Maximum number: Enter a maximum number or character limit for the component. 3. Regular expression pattern: Enter a valid Regular Expression (Regex) to validate the component.
Message	Enter a message to show to the user if the validation criteria is not met. For example, if the user has entered a numeric value that exceeds the Maximum number value you have set.

Styles

Apply additional CSS styling to the component.

Enter space-delimited CSS classes/selectors into the CSS Classes field. When you run the flow, these classes are appended to the main component class.
