Date input

A date input control is utilized when the operator needs to select a calendar date.

• Target Variable The name of the new variable where the entered date is stored. Dates are stored in the YYYY-MM-DD format.

• Prompt The label to display above the date input control.

• Default Value The default value must be in YYYY-MM-DD format. If no default value is provided, today's date will be displayed by default.

• Condition To Hide

  Specify the condition that must be fulfilled for the control to be hidden. If left unspecified, the control will remain visible in the user step. Note that when controls are hidden, empty variables will be generated unless default values or pre-defined data exist.

• Allow Empty Input If set to True, the user is permitted to proceed in the app without entering anything into the date field.

• Merge behavior
