This is a Beta Release feature. Configuration and functionality may be modified before formal release.
The Set Value Button section shows a button that will assign a value to an attribute. A common usage of the button is to have the button assign a value to a field which in turn triggers a business rule that takes other actions on the work item (e.g., sets values to other fields, sends a notification, etc.). The display and behavior of the Set Value Button is configurable when the section is added to a template, dashboard, or presentation.
To include a Set Value Button section in your solution:
- On a template tab, dashboard or presentation, from Design mode, click Add Section.
- Select the Category of the Set Value Button section (this is configurable but is typically: Visualizations).
- Click on the Set Value Button option to add it to the layout.
- Click on the settings gear in the top right corner of the section to open the Settings dialog.
- Modify the settings to define the behavior of the Set Value Button.
- Title: A section title is optional. If there is no entry for this setting, the section will be displayed without a title. Toggle between a text value or an expression resulting in the title by clicking on the text/expression icon at the right of the field.
- Enabled (true/false): The expression that, when true, results in the button being enabled. The gray expression icon at the right of this setting field indicates that the entry must be an expression.
- Enabled Button Label: The text to display on the button when it is enabled. The gray expression icon at the right of this setting field indicates that the entry must be an expression.
- Disabled Button Label: The text to display on the button when it is disabled. The gray expression icon at the right of this setting field indicates that the entry must be an expression.
- Field to Update: The API name of the attribute to which the button click will set a value. The gray expression icon at the right of this setting field indicates that the entry must be an expression.
- Value to Assign: The value that is assigned to the data field. The gray expression icon at the right of this setting field indicates that the entry must be an expression.
- Button Color: Color selection panel that determines the button color. At the bottom of the panel, toggle between a text value or an expression resulting in the color code by clicking on the text/expression icon at the right of the field.
- Save the settings.
Notes:
- There is no validation within the fields that accept expressions. If the expression is not entered correctly, the section will display an error on the instance, dashboard or presentation.
- When the Enabled/Disabled setting is set to “” the button is disabled.
- If the Enabled/Disabled setting value is true, the button is enabled. If the setting value is false, the button is disabled.
If the section is being configured on a template, publish and create an instance to view the customized button. If it’s being configured on a dashboard or presentation, click Stop Editing to view the rendered section.
