Description
In Salesforce Screen Flows, Validate Inputs is a feature that allows you to verify that user input is correct before proceeding to the next screen in the flow. This is particularly useful when collecting data from users, as it helps ensure that the data entered is accurate and complete.
To use Validate Inputs in a Screen Flow, you can add a Validation element to the flow. This element contains rules that define the criteria for valid input. When a user submits a screen in the flow, the Validation element checks the input against the defined rules. If the input is valid, the flow proceeds to the next screen. If the input is not valid, the user is presented with an error message and asked to correct their input.
You can define a wide range of validation rules in Screen Flows, including required fields, data types, ranges, patterns, and more. You can also customize the error message that is displayed to the user when their input is invalid.
By using Validate Inputs in Screen Flows, you can improve the accuracy and completeness of user data, reduce errors and data inconsistencies, and provide a better user experience overall.
