Building forms (inputs, selects & validation)

flowmo builds real, working forms. Native inputs (input/textarea/select/button/label) get type and validation attributes, and any element can be flagged to “act as a form field”. Pair it with a form-submit interaction to send the data.

Where: Right sidebar → Advanced (a form element selected) — Select an input/select/textarea, or enable “act as form field”

Key ideas

• Inputs: Set the input type (text/email/number/checkbox/radio/file/date/…), name, placeholder, required, and constraints (min/max, minlength/maxlength, pattern, autocomplete).
• Select / textarea / button: A select gets an options editor + multiple; textarea gets rows/cols; button gets type/disabled.
• Act as a form field: Any element can be a form control via a kind + name + required — useful for custom-styled inputs.
• Submit: Add a form-submit interaction to validate and send (email / webhook / custom script) with success/failure outcomes.

Steps

1. Add or select a form element.
2. In Advanced, set its type, name, and validation.
3. For a select, edit its options.
4. Add a form-submit interaction on the form to send the data.
