Real-Life Examples​

Here are some examples of how you might use the "Enable URL Input Field" action in your application:

Example 1: Enabling a field after a checkbox is checked​

Imagine you have a form where users can optionally provide a link to an external resource. You want the URL input field to only become active if they explicitly indicate they want to add a link.

  • Inputs:
    • URL Input Field: External Resource Link (the URL input field on your form)
  • Result: When the user checks the "Add External Resource" checkbox, the External Resource Link field becomes editable, allowing them to type or paste a URL.

Example 2: Activating a field based on user role​

In an administrative panel, you might have a URL input field for a "Company Website" that should only be editable by users with "Admin" privileges.

  • Inputs:
    • URL Input Field: Company Website URL (the URL input field in the admin panel)
  • Result: When an "Admin" user logs in and navigates to the company profile page, the Company Website URL field is automatically enabled, allowing them to update the website address.

Example 3: Enabling a field after a successful data load​

Consider a scenario where a user needs to provide a URL for an image, but only after a specific product has been successfully loaded and displayed on the page.

  • Inputs:
    • URL Input Field: Product Image URL (the URL input field for the image)
  • Result: After the product details (including its ID) are successfully retrieved and displayed, the Product Image URL field becomes enabled, allowing the user to input or change the image link.
