Input Time

The Avonni Input Time lets users enter or pick a time value in a form. Drop it onto the canvas wherever you need to capture a time — an appointment slot, a start or end time, or any other time-of-day value — with optional range limits, timezone handling, and validation.

Overview

The Input Time pairs a label with a time field that users type into or select. You control how the field is labelled and laid out, the format the time is displayed in, and the range of acceptable values. You can also mark the field required, disabled, or read-only, and supply custom validation messages. The sections below follow the configuration panel from top to bottom, so you can read along as you build.

Configuration

To configure the Input Time, select it on the canvas. The Edit Input Time panel opens on the right with Properties, Interactions, and Style tabs. The sections below mirror the Properties tab.

Properties

The Properties tab contains all of the Input Time's settings in a single group.

Label

The Label setting is the text shown above (or beside) the field to tell users what the time is for. The Variant setting controls where this label appears relative to the field.

Value

The Value setting specifies the time the field starts with. Leave it empty for a blank field, or bind it to a value so the field is pre-filled when the component loads.

Field Level Help

The Field Level Help setting adds help text that explains the purpose and function of the field. It appears as a small help icon next to the label, and the text is revealed when users hover over or focus the icon.

Variant

The Variant setting changes the appearance of the field by controlling how the label is positioned. Pick the layout that fits the form:

• Standard (default) — the label sits above the field.
• Label Hidden — the label is hidden from view but still available to assistive technologies.
• Label Inline — the label sits on the same line as the field.
• Label Stacked — the label stacks above the field.

Placeholder

The Placeholder setting is text displayed when the field is empty, prompting the user for a valid entry. It disappears once the user begins typing.

Max

The Max setting specifies the maximum acceptable value for the input, setting the upper bound of the allowed time range.

Min

The Min setting specifies the minimum acceptable value for the input, setting the lower bound of the allowed time range.

Time Style

The Time Style setting controls how much detail the displayed time includes. Choose the format that suits the precision you need:

• Short — a brief time display.
• Medium (default) — the standard time display.
• Long — a more detailed time display.

Timezone

The Timezone setting specifies the timezone used to interpret and display the time value.

Required

The Required setting, when enabled, means the field must be filled out before the form is submitted. Enabling it also makes the Message When Value Missing setting relevant.

Read Only

The Read Only setting, when enabled, displays the field's value but prevents users from editing it.

Message When Value Missing

The Message When Value Missing setting is the error message displayed when the field is required and its value is missing. This setting applies when Required is enabled.

Disabled

The Disabled setting, when enabled, disables the field so users cannot interact with it.

Message When Bad Input

The Message When Bad Input setting is the error message displayed when a bad input is detected. This is an advanced setting.

Set Component Visibility

All components support conditional visibility — see Component Visibility.

Interactions

Interactions define what happens when users interact with the Time Input. Configure them from the Interactions tab of the Edit Time Input panel.

Change

Fires when the user changes the time field value. Use this to update a variable, trigger a flow action, or drive any logic that depends on the selected time.
