🆕Input Choice Set Grid

Overview

The Input Choice Set Grid displays your choices in a neat and organized grid, making it easy for users to pick what they need. It's perfect for forms or data entry where you want a clear, visual way for people to select one or more options.

How it Works

Columns

The grid's top row shows your choices. You can get these options from different places:

  • Manual Entry: Type them in directly.

  • Variable: Use a value from your flow.

  • Picklist Field: Pull options from a picklist on a Salesforce object.

  • Query Data Source: Get options directly from your Salesforce data.

Rows

You create the rows in the grid manually. Each row represents a different item or category where users can make selections.

Values

This section is like filling in a spreadsheet. Each cell in the grid represents a combination of a row and column, and you can assign a specific value to each cell. When a user selects a cell in the grid, the value you set here gets stored.

Common Uses

  • Prefilling Values: This section can prefill default values for users when the component loads.

  • Capturing User Selections: You will capture the values users select on a later screen or when creating/updating records using the value or value serialized attribute from the Input Choice Set Grid component. You don't need to configure anything specific here for that.

Key Point

The "Values" section primarily sets initial values or defaults. Users' values will be captured and used elsewhere in your flow.

Styling

You have a variety of options to customize the appearance of your Input Choice Set Grid:

  • Margin: Control the space around the grid.

  • Size: Adjust the overall size of the grid.

  • Grid Background: Change the background color of the entire grid.

  • Grid Border: Customize the border around the grid (style, color, thickness).

  • Label: Style the main label or title of the grid.

  • Columns Label: Customize the appearance of the column labels.

  • Rows Label: Customize the appearance of the row labels.

  • Input: Style the individual input cells within the grid (background, border, text).

These styling options give you the flexibility to create an Input Choice Set Grid that seamlessly integrates with the look and feel of your application.
