- Conditional Value Assignment: Different values can be assigned according to specific conditions. Example: If the user role is ‘Admin’, the default value can be assigned differently. This is achieved with the Add Condition feature.
- Multiple Field Update: When an event is triggered, the values of multiple elements can be updated at the same time. Example: When ‘Order Code’ is entered, both the customer name and order date should be updated.
- Use with Other Actions: Set Value Of can be integrated with actions such as Navigate, Show Message, Change Enabled Of. For example: After the value is assigned, the user can be redirected to the next page.
Technical Risks
- Empty or Invalid Value: The assigned value may be null or in an unexpected format. Pre-checks should be performed if necessary.
- Target Component Access: The operation will fail if the component has been deleted or misnamed.
- Data Type Mismatch: An error may occur if text is assigned to a numeric field. A compatible data type should be selected.
Set Value Of is a powerful action used in the Kuika platform to automate user inputs, reflect system data in forms, and generally make the interface smarter and more user-friendly. It is an indispensable tool for developers who want to create interactive and flexible applications with dynamic data management.
