Container Validation
LEGACY
Legacy Apps User Guide for Automation Suite
Last updated Jan 18, 2024
Container Validation
You can use a container's isValid property to check the input validation for all controls inside the container.
This is easier as it is no longer necessary to mention each control individually when building your app.
In this example we will build a simple form with five controls inside a single container:
- Two textboxes: one called Name, and a second one called Email (input type
Email
). - One datepicker called Date of birth.
- One dropdown list called Area.
- One button called Submit.
- Open your already existing application or start a new one.
- Add a container to your app.
-
Add a Textbox control inside the container.
- Rename it Name and add
Name
in the Label property. - Add
=true
in the Required property.

-
Add a Datepicker control inside the container.
