A customizable checkbox that a user can toggle between a selected/checked and unselected/unchecked state.

Adding a Checkbox component

To add and use a Checkbox component:

  • Select the Checkbox component from the Components drawer. You can open the list of components by clicking the + button next to Components.
  • The Checkbox component takes up a boolean variable. When the variable is true, the checkbox is in a selected state and when the variable is false, the component is in unselected taste.
  • Select the Checkbox component in the Components tree.
  • Go to the Data tab (third tab) in the Properties Panel.
  • On Initial Value, select the boolean variable. This variable can be created under Variables modal or can be an incoming field from a REST API endpoint.

In the example below, the Initial Value property on the Checkbox is assigned to false.

To manipulate the value of the Checkbox in an API request, you will use the Screen variable mapped to its Data Source property value to send as the body of the API request action. The 'Data Source' property value is available in the third tab.
