Set password input field as required

Function: Set password input field as required​

This action allows you to control whether a specific password input field on your application's forms must be filled out by the user. You can also customize the message shown if the field is left empty. This is useful for ensuring users provide necessary information before submitting a form.

Input​

  • UI element (PART): The specific password input field on your form that you want to modify. This is a required input.
  • Required (BOOLEAN): Choose 'Yes' if the password field must be filled out by the user, or 'No' if it's optional.
  • Required message (STRING): The custom message that will be displayed to the user if they leave the required password field empty. If left blank, a default message will be used.

Output​

None. This action modifies the behavior of a UI element directly.

Execution Flow​

Real-Life Examples​

Example 1: Make a password field mandatory with a custom message​

Imagine you have a user registration form and you want to ensure users always provide a password.

  • Inputs:
    • UI element: "User Password Field" (the specific password input field on your registration form)
    • Required: Yes
    • Required message: "Please create a strong password to secure your account."
  • Result: The "User Password Field" on the registration form will now require a password. If a user tries to submit the form without entering a password, they will see the message "Please create a strong password to secure your account."

Example 2: Make a password confirmation field optional​

In some cases, you might have a "Confirm Password" field that is initially required, but you decide to make it optional for a simpler user experience.

  • Inputs:
    • UI element: "Confirm Password Field" (the password input field used for confirmation)
    • Required: No
    • Required message: (Leave empty, as it's no longer required)
  • Result: The "Confirm Password Field" on your form will no longer require a value, allowing users to leave it blank if they choose.

Example 3: Make a password field mandatory using the default message​

You want to ensure a password field is filled out, but you're happy with the platform's standard "This field is required" message.

  • Inputs:
    • UI element: "Admin Login Password" (the password field on your admin login page)
    • Required: Yes
    • Required message: (Leave empty)
  • Result: The "Admin Login Password" field on the login page will now require a password. If an administrator tries to log in without entering a password, they will see the platform's default "This field is required" message.
