LocationForm Rules

The Hide Multiple Control step selectively hides multiple Form controls. Developers can dynamically control the visibility of multiple controls within a Form based on specific conditions. This step proves particularly useful when there is a need to display or hide groups of controls based on user interactions, Flow progress, or other business rules. Pair this step with the Show Multiple Controls step to show and hide controls based on the same criteria. 



Properties

Inputs

PropertyDescriptionData Type
Form ControlTo hide multiple controls, select "Build Array" as the mapping type and add items that correspond to the desired controls to hide. If only one Form Control is mapped, a validation error icon will appear on the step. To avoid any errors, it is necessary to map two or more controls to this step. The available Form Controls are under the Form Data category when picking data from the Flow.List of FormControlData


Common Errors

Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

The Form Control Input is not mapped to a Form Control. Evaluate the mapping to this step to correct the problem.
