Nodes and components

Forms lets you add nodes and components, such as fields, blocks, and widgets for your users to interact with the form. You can then reference the data input, from components, in your forms and flows.

Form nodes

There are five types of form nodes: Start, Step, Flow, Router and Ending screen. These nodes have a very specific purpose for the structure of the form.

Step node

Step nodes are the visual representation of the form. They can contain any number of components, such as fields, blocks, and widgets where the user can fill in their data.

Field components

Fields are UI components where users input their information in Forms.

Blocks components

Blocks are UI components that add functionality to your forms but do not gather user information.

Available blocks in Forms

The available blocks are:

Next button block

A button that lets users continue to the next form node.

Before continuing, field validation rules are applied and validated on the client-side and server-side. If field validation rules fail, an error message is displayed for the user to verify.
If the next node is a flow node, a spinner loader is displayed until the flow completes. If the flow fails or returns a custom error message, an error message is displayed.

Previous button block

A button that lets users go to the previous step node.

If a user selects the previous button, field validation rules are re-run again even if no change to input data is done before continuing.

Jump button block

A button that lets users skip the current step and directly jumps to the destination node.

When skipping the current step, we won’t validate and neither collect any filled out information of the current step.

Resend button block

A component that lets users re-run a flow to generate and send a new OTP code

if a user selects the resend button, the associated flow will generate and send a new OTP code.

Settings	Description
Text alignment	Select text alignment, left, center, or right
Text	Default text displayed when users select the resend button
Button text	Button text
Waiting text	Text displayed when users have selected the resend button. Replaces `Text` and the `Button text` settings. Use the `“{{remaining_seconds}}”` variable to dynamically display the remaining number of seconds until the send button is enabled again. For example: “Resend in `{{remaining_seconds}}` seconds”.
Flow	Flow executed after the user selects the resend button.
Max attempts	The maximum number of attempts the user can select the resend button
Waiting time	The waiting time between attempts in seconds.

Rich text block

A rich text block to personalize the step node with additional information.

Divider block

A line to divide different sections of the step node. It can contain a small text.

HTML block

A HTML block to create your custom UI.

Image block

Challenge (v2)
- Invisible reCAPTCHA badge

Differences between v2 and v3:

v2 requires user interaction with visible challenges, such as clicking a checkbox or solving puzzles.
v3 runs in the background and provides a score based on user behavior, without requiring user interaction. When using this version, make sure to implement additional business logic to handle the score and determine if further action is needed.

Public token	The access token required to consume the polling endpoint. Please ensure the token is generated with only the `read:verification_request` scope to avoid exposing access to other resources.
Verification ID	The verification ID generated when you start the verification request.
Maximum waiting time	The maximum amount of time to wait for the verification process to complete. Once the set time is reached, polling will stop and an error will be thrown, regardless of the verification status.

Verifiable Credentials output value

The Verifiable Credentials widget output value data type is an object.

{
  "verifiable_credentials_widget_id": {
    "state": "honored",
    "reason": "...", // The reason field contains additional information (if available) regarding the state of the verification request. 
    "presentation": {} // The presentation contains the claims provided by the wallet in response to the presentation definition.
  }
}

Router node

Router nodes let you add rules to create conditional logic jumps between nodes. By default, a router node has a single pass-through rule named Default Case that connects to other nodes. You can add additional rules based on a set of conditions that a variable must meet to then connect to other nodes. To learn more, read Router.

Flow node

Flow nodes let you add and create custom logic and integration flows to your forms. To learn more, read Flows.

Start node

Start nodes are not visible to the user. It is where you can configure hidden field variables, such as user attributes when rendering a form with an Action.

Ending screen node

Every form has an Ending screen node. By default this node resumes the authentication flow and this is where you can configure an After submission flow.
