The block consists of a [Value Parameter](/app-editor/page-flow/block-anatomy.md#value-parameters) of type [text](/app-editor/page-flow/references/value-types.md) that specifies the Field Identifier (FieldID) of the form field.

{% hint style="warning" %}

* This block only works when used in *Form* type pages. See [Working With Forms](/app-editor/page-editor/working-with-forms.md) to learn about how forms work.
* The behavior of this block is similar to the [Get Input Value](/app-editor/page-flow/toolbox-blocks/get-input-value.md) block, with the difference being that this block refers to the field identifier and not the element.
