Address Component (Centauri Only)
The Address component lets your use a Google Maps-style address look-up to suggest matching addresses. When your end-user selects a suggested address, the address fields populate with the selected address data.
The component also offers flexibility with how you'll collect and use address information. Features of the Address component include:
Address Search Component
The Address Search component lets you collect physical addresses. Using a Google Maps API (application programming interface), the field suggests matches as your end-user enters their address. The address can fit in a single field, or you can configure the component to show more fields (Street Address 2, City, State, Zip, and Country).
The additional fields will autofill when your end-user selects an address from the drop-down.
Protected Field Component (Centauri Only)
The Protected Field component is an input component that masks what's entered into it. This masking is useful when your end-user needs to enter potentially sensitive information. For example, a Social Security number or account number. It makes sense to use a Protected Field component when you:
-
Protect the field from being viewed in real-time by someone other than your end-user. Using a Protected Field helps prevent "shoulder surfing". Shoulder surfing is when someone watches the end-user's screen to collect information.
-
Don't want or need to store sensitive data in the database. The Protected Field component doesn't have a Store Data in Database setting.
A Protected Field component works much like a Text Field or Number component would. The main difference is that values entered in a Protected Field don't display in the field. Instead, the field shows a substitute character, such as asterisks or dots. The Protected Field component doesn't offer built-in encryption or other security features. It only masks the end-user's input in Express View. Therefore, the Protected Field component isn't a good option for storing passwords.
Button Component
The Button component adds an interactive, clickable element to your module. Buttons let your end-users perform actions and make choices with a single button-click. You can use Buttons to set custom actions or process flows based on your end-user's choices.
Some ways you might use the Button component include:
-
Saving, submitting, validating, or resetting a module.
-
Triggering another component, such as an Initializer, Decisions, or Data Workflow component.
-
Navigating between Panels.
-
Downloading a Managed Asset, such as a PDF or CSV file.
-
Labeling the Button-click event by giving it an Event ID. After setup, you can then reference that Event ID in different components, allowing you to create more complex logic-based configurations. For example, triggering several different components with a single button-click Event ID.
-
Using the Workflow Element Type, adding custom navigation buttons to a workflow.
Email Component
The Email component is part of our specialized range of input components. This component looks and acts like a Text Field, except that it has built-in data validation. This means that the component requires a valid email address format. All email addresses entered into your email field must include: username, @ symbol, domain name, and top-level domain name (.com, .org).
Hidden Component
The Hidden component is unique in that it holds any data structure. Another nicety is that you can only see Hidden components in the Module Builder. They're completely invisible in Express View. This invisibility makes Hidden components great for storing or passing in information. Your information's useable elsewhere, but not directly visible to your end-user.
This component stores data that other components will reference, such as Calculators, Decisions, and Initializers.
Intl Phone Number Component (Centauri Only)
The Intl (International) Phone Number component is a specialized input component for international phone numbers.
You'll see many similarities when comparing this component and the Phone Number component. A few key features set the Intl Phone Number component apart. These include:
Phone Number Component
The Phone Number component is a specialized input used for entering phone numbers. By default, this component includes an Input Mask of (999) 999-9999. As an enters their phone number, the Input Mask formats the value.
Unqork offers a Phone number and an Intl (International) Phone Number component. The first component works best with United States phone numbers. The second component lets you set an international, country-specific Input Mask.
An Input Mask is a string of characters that indicates the format of a valid input. Use an Input Mask when the format of the input value must be consistent. Use 9 to require a number, a to require a letter, and * to require an alphanumeric character.
Signature Component (Centauri Only)
The Signature component creates a signature field for your module. In , the signature field displays as a box where can use their mouse to draw their signature. In the submission data, the drawn signature stores as a string.
Do not use the Signature component for legally-binding signatures. Instead, we suggest you use third-party software like DocuSign and SignNow.
In the configuration window, you can customize the size and color of your signature box.
