The text field inputs let the user type a text in a box.

Single-line Text

The string input lets the end user type text freely on a single line:

def formFieldSet = api.createConfiguratorEntry()

formFieldSet.inputs = [
    api.inputBuilderFactory()
        .createStringUserEntry('string')
        .buildContextParameter()
]

return formFieldSet

api.inputBuilderFactory()
        .createStringUserEntry('string')
        .getInput()

processor.addOrUpdateInput(                 //❶
        'ROOT',
        api.inputBuilderFactory()
                .createStringUserEntry('string')
                .buildMap()
)

Reading input value in a line-item logic.

def value = input.string as String

Multi-line Text

The text input lets the end user type longer text:

def formFieldSet = api.createConfiguratorEntry()

formFieldSet.inputs = [
    api.inputBuilderFactory()
        .createTextUserEntry('text')
        .buildContextParameter()
]

return formFieldSet

api.inputBuilderFactory()
        .createTextUserEntry('text', )
        .getInput()

processor.addOrUpdateInput(                 //❶
        'ROOT',
        api.inputBuilderFactory()
                .createTextUserEntry('text')
                .buildMap()
)
