Field Types
There are different types of fields and various ways to modify them to suit your needs.
Label
A read-only field with no variable input presented to the User.
Use this field to give a Title to your Form or to differentiate different sections of the Form.
Text
A short text field where the User can type text to populate a variable.
Use this field for short variables such as:
- Username
- Hostname
- Other short texts
Text Area
A larger text field where the User can type text to populate a variable.
Use this field for longer variables such as:
- Note
- Reason
- Journal entry
- Other long texts
Password
A password field where the User can type a password, and the system will mask the text.
Dropdown
A drop-down list, where the User can pick a variable from a designated list.
The list can be populated from a fixed list of items entered in the Self Service Designer or another workflow that will run when the Form is launched and return a response with all available options.
