# Visual Picker Link

## Setting Up Your Visual Picker Link

### Step 1: Add the Picker Link

**What It’s For**: This is where you drop the Picker Link into your Flow and give it a purpose. It’s the foundation—turning a plain link into something users notice and want to click.

* **How**: Drag the **Visual Picker Link** component from the Elements Panel into your Flow canvas.
* **Why**: Sets up a clickable spot that stands out—like a colorful signpost pointing to external content.
* *Example*: Add it to a dashboard to link to a training video or support page.

*What You Get*: A ready-to-customize link that’s live in your Flow, waiting for content and style.

### Step 2: Add Content

Content is the heart of your Picker Link—it’s what users see and click on. Adding a title and description makes it clear what they’re linking to, turning it from a mystery button into an inviting gateway.

* **How**: Fill out the **Title** and **Content** fields in the Properties Panel.
* **Options**:
  * **Title**: Give it a short, catchy name.
    * *Why*: The title is the headline, which grabs attention and summarizes the link’s purpose.
    * *Example*: “Visit Our Blog” for a link to your company’s articles.
  * **Content**: Add a brief description below the title.
    * *Why*: Provides extra context—tells users what to expect when they click, building trust.
    * *Example*: “Check out our latest tips and updates” under the “Visit Our Blog” title.<br>
* *Example Setup*:
  * Title: “Download Guide”
  * Content: “Get our free PDF on best practices”
  * Result: A clear, enticing link to a downloadable file.

*What You Get*: A Picker Link that speaks for itself—users know precisely where it’s taking them.

### Step 3: Add an Icon (Optional)

An icon adds a visual spark to your Picker Link, making it more eye-catching and memorable. It’s like a little flag that visually draws users in and ties the link to its content.

* **How**: In the Properties Panel, enable the icon option and choose its placement.
* **Options**:
  * **Placement**: Put the icon on the left or right of the content.
    * *Why*: Left icons lead the eye naturally (great for emphasis), while right icons complement the text (subtle flair).
    * *Example*: A “globe” icon on the left for “Visit Our Site” feels bold; it’s a gentle nudge on the right.
  * **Icon Choice**: Pick from Salesforce’s icon library (e.g., “world,” “document,” “arrow”).
    * *Why*: Matches the icon to the link’s purpose—reinforces meaning without words.
    * *Example*: A “download” arrow for “Get the App” points users to an app store link.
* *Example*: Add a “link” icon on the left of “Explore Resources” to hint at external content.

*What You Get*: A Picker Link that pops visually—icons make it inviting and quick to recognize.

### Step 4: Add Interactions

Interactions decide what happens when users click the Picker Link—turning it from a static label into an active bridge to external content. This is where you define the action, making it a seamless part of your Flow.

* **How**: Open the **Interactions Panel** and set up what triggers when users interact.
* **Available Interaction**:
  * **On Click**: Fires an action when the Picker Link is clicked.
    * *Why*: Links the click to something meaningful—like opening a URL or running a Flow step—giving it purpose.
    * *Example*: Set “On Click” to open [www.example.com/resources](http://www.example.com/resources) in a new tab when users click “Explore Resources.”
    * *How to Configure*:
      1. Select “On Click” in the Interactions Panel.
      2. Choose an action (e.g., “Navigate to URL”).
      3. Enter the destination (e.g., a website or file link).<br>
* *More Options*: Check the full interactions list for additional possibilities (e.g., triggering a Flow or showing a modal).<br>

*What You Get*: A Picker Link that does something—clicking it takes users exactly where you want, smoothly and reliably.
