Set Input Value is a regular block that allows you to set the value of Input, Dropdown and Multi-line elements on a page or form.
Refer to the Set Input Value in Data Design block for dynamically generated content.
The block comes in two modes which are discussed below.
The Mode 1 version of the Set Input Value block consists of (from left to right):
Element: Selectable Input to choose the element you want to set the value of.
Data: Value Parameter that accepts the value to set (of type text)
The Mode 2 version of the Set Input Value block consists of (from left to right):
Element: Value Parameter that accepts either a text value in the form of a CSS Selector or an element value. The Element block comes pre-attached for your convenience but can be removed and customized.
Data: Value Parameter that accepts the value to set (of type text)
The image below shows an example of the Mode 1 version where the Data value parameter is attached to a Variable Value block configured to use the variable b which has been set to "John".
In the next example we see a Mode 2 version where the Element value parameter is attached to a Text block containing a CSS Selector that selects the same element. This time the Data value parameter is attached to the Text block containing the text "Jane".
NOTE: Using a CSS selector, you can operate on multiple elements that match the criteria specified by the selector. See the references below for more information:
