Disable slide toggle input field

Function: Disable slide toggle input field​

This action allows you to make a specific "Slide Toggle Input Field" on your application inactive. When a slide toggle is disabled, users cannot interact with it, meaning they cannot switch its state (e.g., from "On" to "Off" or vice-versa). This is useful for controlling user input based on other conditions or application states.

Input​

  • UI element: Specify the "Slide Toggle Input Field" you want to disable. This must be an existing slide toggle component on your page.
    • Type: UI element (specifically a Slide Toggle)
    • Required: Yes

Output​

This action does not produce a direct output value. Instead, it changes the state of the specified Slide Toggle Input Field, making it inactive and unchangeable by the user.

Execution Flow​

Real-Life Examples​

Here are a few scenarios where you might use the "Disable slide toggle input field" action:

Example 1: Conditional Form Submission​

Imagine you have a user registration form. You want to disable the "Receive Newsletter" toggle if the user selects "No" for "Opt-in to Marketing Emails."

  • Inputs:
    • UI element: "Receive Newsletter Toggle"
  • Result: If the user opts out of marketing emails, the "Receive Newsletter Toggle" becomes grayed out and unclickable, preventing them from accidentally subscribing to the newsletter.

Example 2: Feature Control After Action​

Consider an application where users can enable or disable a "Dark Mode" feature. Once a user saves their preferences, you might want to temporarily disable the "Dark Mode" toggle to prevent further changes until the page reloads or another action is taken.

  • Inputs:
    • UI element: "Dark Mode Toggle"
  • Result: After saving preferences, the "Dark Mode Toggle" is disabled, visually indicating that the setting is currently locked and cannot be changed.

Example 3: Admin-Controlled Settings​

In an administrative panel, you might have a "Global Feature X Enabled" toggle. If a system administrator decides to temporarily lock this setting to prevent changes by other users, they can use this action.

  • Inputs:
    • UI element: "Global Feature X Enabled Toggle"
  • Result: The "Global Feature X Enabled Toggle" is disabled, ensuring that no one can accidentally or intentionally change the status of Feature X until the lock is removed.
