Text Box Component - Input Mask

Does anyone know if we can assign an Input Mask to Text Box components?

Using version 8.5.4, I have a few dashboards that make use of Text boxes for data collection and I don't see a way to assign an input mask to the text box.

An input mask is a string expression that constrains input to support valid input values. If the text box is expecting a dollar amount, the input mask would format the entry as number format #,###.00.

For capturing a telephone number (North America format), the mask would be (000)000-0000.

If this doesn't exist, can the dev team add this to future releases?

Thanks,

Cosimo,

I was taking a look at this today and I do not see a way to have an input mask for the Text Box Component. You could put a tool tip that outlines the format that you want to have for the text box itself

Enter your Text in the following format #,###.00 as an example, but there is not an option for this.
