A field in which users can enter text. Supports suggestions and on-change actions. For an example in Google Chat apps, see Add a field in which a user can enter text. Chat apps receive and can process the value of entered text during form input events. For details about working with form inputs, see Receive form data. When you need to collect undefined or abstract data from users, use a text input. To collect defined or enumerated data from users, use the SelectionInput widget.

Attributes

• autoCompleteAction (type: GoogleApi.Chat.V1.Model.GoogleAppsCardV1Action.t, default: nil) - Optional. Specify what action to take when the text input field provides suggestions to users who interact with it. If unspecified, the suggestions are set by initialSuggestions and are processed by the client. If specified, the app takes the action specified here, such as running a custom function. Google Workspace Add-ons:
• hintText (type: String.t, default: nil) - Text that appears below the text input field meant to assist users by prompting them to enter a certain value. This text is always visible. Required if label is unspecified. Otherwise, optional.
• initialSuggestions (type: GoogleApi.Chat.V1.Model.GoogleAppsCardV1Suggestions.t, default: nil) - Suggested values that users can enter. These values appear when users click inside the text input field. As users type, the suggested values dynamically filter to match what the users have typed. For example, a text input field for programming language might suggest Java, JavaScript, Python, and C++. When users start typing Jav, the list of suggestions filters to show just Java and JavaScript. Suggested values help guide users to enter values that your app can make sense of. When referring to JavaScript, some users might enter javascript and others java script. Suggesting JavaScript can standardize how users interact with your app. When specified, TextInput.type is always SINGLE_LINE, even if it's set to MULTIPLE_LINE. Google Workspace Add-ons and Chat apps:
• label (type: String.t, default: nil) - The text that appears above the text input field in the user interface. Specify text that helps the user enter the information your app needs. For example, if you are asking someone's name, but specifically need their surname, write surname instead of name. Required if hintText is unspecified. Otherwise, optional.
• name (type: String.t, default: nil) - The name by which the text input is identified in a form input event. For details about working with form inputs, see Receive form data.
• onChangeAction (type: GoogleApi.Chat.V1.Model.GoogleAppsCardV1Action.t, default: nil) - What to do when a change occurs in the text input field. For example, a user adding to the field or deleting text. Examples of actions to take include running a custom function or opening a dialog in Google Chat.
• placeholderText (type: String.t, default: nil) - Text that appears in the text input field when the field is empty. Use this text to prompt users to enter a value. For example, Enter a number from 0 to 100. Google Chat apps:
• type (type: String.t, default: nil) - How a text input field appears in the user interface. For example, whether the field is single or multi-line.
• value (type: String.t, default: nil) - The value entered by a user, returned as part of a form input event. For details about working with form inputs, see Receive form data.
