Create Tile Data

The Create Tile Data step is used in conjunction with the Tile Source Flow Behavior to define and provide data for a Page or Form Tile. For instance, when using a Simple Tile, this Step will automatically appear when when creating a Tile Source Flow.

This information is mapped via the Tile's step's multiple Line Inputs and can be further customized using options under the STYLES category of the step's Properties tab.

This allows control of the Tile's contents and can be used to add branding, add visual flair, or display information relevant to the Page/Form it is applied to. Tiles can be utilized in a variety of ways, such as additional navigation, as a dynamic way to display statistics (such as user portal access), or as a way to add diagrams to a Page/Dashboard.  

This Step is different from the Create Tile Return step because it contains no Tile Type Name dropdown list and instead has a series of inputs called Lines. By default, there are five line inputs, but additional line inputs can be configured. This Step also gives Users more control over the styling of the Tile through the use of the Advanced Styling checkbox option.
