Hi
How To initialize Form
Example : When Start Program TextInput In Form Value Initial = Hello World.
I assume you are asking how to initialize a form?
This is what I use to pre-fill a drop-down menu.

Just send in the values you want when the flow starts....

I think it will be better to use ui_control node instead of regular inject node for dashboard widget wake up flows. (better timing, tab change, ignore flow if at wrong tab ....)

True - that would initialise it every time the browser reloads the page.

In Form UI Each Text Input Have a unique Name
I Want Initialize Text Input By Value When Program Is Start
Hi
Thanks For Reply
Can you using Function Node this be done ?
Example :
msg.payload.temp;
return msg;
Simple way is to fill in the form as you want it to be - catch the payload when you submit.
Use that payload to initialise the form.
Thanks for your guide.
But it doesn't work.
My Flow =Test Form.json (1.5 KB)
It does if you set it as per what the form sends
msg.payload = {"Temp1":true,"Temp2":true}
return msg;
