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.

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.
