Set value of slide-toggle field

Function: Set value of slide-toggle field

This action allows you to programmatically change the state of a "slide-toggle" component on your application's forms. A slide-toggle is a user interface element that typically represents a binary choice, like "On/Off" or "Yes/No." By using this action, you can set its value to either True (on/yes) or False (off/no), influencing how your application behaves or what data is collected.

Input,

  • UI element: This is the specific slide-toggle component on your form that you want to modify. You must select the exact slide-toggle field you intend to update.
  • Answer: This is the desired state you want to set for the selected slide-toggle field. You can choose True to turn it "on" or False to turn it "off." If you do not provide a value, the slide-toggle will default to False.

Output,

No direct output parameters. This action updates the state of the specified slide-toggle field within the current process, making the change visible on the form and available for subsequent actions.
