Checkbox

A checkbox allowing the user to read and edit boolean data.

Configurable properties

• Field label: Label displayed besides the checkbox.
• Field description: Description provided below the checkbox.
• Key: Binds the field to a form variable, see data binding docs.
• Default value: Provides a default state for the checkbox in case no input data exists for the given key.
• Disabled: Disables the checkbox, for use during development.
• Hide if: Expression to hide the checkbox.
• Validation: Given that one of the following properties is set, the form will only submit when the respective condition is fulfilled. Otherwise, a validation error will be displayed.
  • Required: Checkbox must contain a value.
• Columns: Space the field will use inside its row. Auto means it will automatically adjust to available space in the row. Read more about the underlying grid layout in the Carbon Grid documentation.

Datatypes

Checkboxes can be bound to data of the boolean type. Any other datatype will be treated as a false by default.
