Set invalid message of color input field

Function: Set Invalid Message of Color Input Field​

This action allows you to display a specific error message next to a "Color Input Field" on your application's screen. This is useful for guiding users when their input doesn't meet certain criteria, such as selecting an invalid color or leaving a required field empty. You can also use it to clear an existing error message.

Input,

  • UI element: This is the specific "Color Input Field" component on your page that you want to target. You must select the exact color input field where the message should appear.
  • Invalid message: This is the text you want to display as the error message. If you leave this blank or provide an empty value, any existing error message for the selected color input field will be removed.

Output,

This action does not produce any direct output that can be used in subsequent steps. Its effect is visible directly on the user interface.

Execution Flow,

Real-Life Examples,

Example 1: Guiding users to select a valid brand color​

Imagine you have a "Brand Color" field, and you want to ensure users pick a color from a predefined palette. If they select an off-brand color, you can show an error.

  • Inputs:
    • UI element: Brand Color Picker (your specific color input field)
    • Invalid message: Please select a color from our approved brand palette.
  • Result: The Brand Color Picker field on the screen will display the message "Please select a color from our approved brand palette." below it, indicating an error.

Example 2: Clearing an error message after a successful validation​

After a user corrects their input, you'll want to remove any previously displayed error messages to show that the field is now valid.

  • Inputs:
    • UI element: Background Color Selector (your specific color input field)
    • Invalid message: (Leave this field empty or provide an empty text value)
  • Result: Any error message previously shown next to the Background Color Selector field will disappear, indicating that the input is now considered valid.

Example 3: Notifying about a required color selection​

If a color input field is mandatory, you can use this action to prompt the user if they haven't made a selection.

  • Inputs:
    • UI element: Primary Accent Color (your specific color input field)
    • Invalid message: A primary accent color is required for your theme.
  • Result: The Primary Accent Color field will show "A primary accent color is required for your theme." as an error, prompting the user to make a selection.
