Select the screen where you want to create a new attribute.
For example, create a button named “Create Field.”
To make it work when clicked: + ADD ACTION > OnClick > EAV > Attribute > Create Attribute.
2. Configuring Action Parameters
Action parameters can be defined dynamically or statically using the Symbol Picker tool. Below are example definition methods and usage purposes for each parameter:
Name (Required):The text field where the user writes the attribute name via the form.
Symbol Picker > Form Component > Text Input
Example: “reference_number”
DataType (Required): This parameter determines the data type of the attribute. It must be assigned a fixed value.
Symbol Picker > Fixed > ‘String’ (or “Integer,” “Decimal,” “Boolean,” etc., depending on the supported data types)
Example: “Integer”
Description (Optional): Text field where the user can enter a description about the attribute.
Symbol Picker > Form Component > Text Input
Example: “Specifies the number of references for the person”
CategoryId (Optional): The category ID to which the attribute belongs can be a fixed value or the user can make a selection.
Symbol Picker > Fixed > Guid or Symbol Picker > Component > SelectBox
Example: “cd253d3b-6a9a-48d2-afe7-e8303f2e9094”
IsRequired (Optional): This field determines whether the attribute is required.
It can be set to true/false or the user can select a key.
Symbol Picker > Fixed > true/false or Component > Switch
Example: true
DefaultValue (Optional): The default value of the attribute. It can be set to a fixed value or taken from user input.
Symbol Picker > Fixed or Component > Text/Number Input
Example: 0 (for Integer) or “Unknown” (for String)
Enable Audit Log: Ensures that the action performed when the action is executed is added to the audit log records. This allows you to track who performed the attribute creation or update operations, when they were performed, and with which values.
3. Creating an Attribute in the System
Based on the defined parameters, a new attribute record is created in the system. This process allows customized data entry without changing the database schema.
