Log in to add to favourites

An editor which is displayed in the Contensis UI for a workflow event.

Currently the only editor supported for use in workflow definitions is the multiline editor, which displays a customisable message to the user when the parent event is triggered to prompt the user to enter text, e.g. when submitting an entry for approval. This editor can be used in conjunction with the required validation to make entering text mandatory.

Properties

id string The identifier for the editor. This should be set to "multiline" for the mulitline editor.
instructions object Localized value Instructions to be displyed in the Contensis UI when the parent event is triggered.
properties object This should be set to null.
