Our Textarea Block is an ideal tool to create a space for more interaction between you and your users.


Adding the Textarea Block

  1. In the blocks tab, navigate to input and drag the date picker block into your heyflow

  2. Adjust the settings such as the number of possible text rows within the field to adjust the size of the text field as a whole

  3. Edit the placeholder text, which gives a hint that describes the expected value of an input field

  4. Add a system label to make sure you are processing the data in a meaningful way.

  5. Just publish your heyflow and you’re good to go!
