Overview

Further explanation of how the mutation action renders on a UI within a Fluent web app when configured in the Page Component

Key points

  • How the mutation action will be render in the UI
  • How custom attributes are handled and can be edited alongside their limitations
No alt provided
  • Dynamic Dropdown for Attribute 'Type':
    • The UI offers a dropdown menu for selecting the attribute "type".
    • Predefined types available: NUMBER, STRING, BOOLEAN, JSON, and CUSTOM.
    • Only one type can be selected at a time.
  • Dynamic UI Component for 'Value':
    • The input component for 'value' dynamically changes based on the chosen attribute 'type'.
    • Non-compatible entries will be rejected. For instance, non-number values for the NUMBER type will not be accepted.
  • Enhanced Editing Mode:
    • When editing, the attribute's "name" becomes non-editable, but "type" and "value" can be modified.
    • Existing attributes with types not matching the predefined ENUM will be listed under the CUSTOM type.
  • Custom Type Flexibility:
    • If "CUSTOM" is chosen, an additional input field (sub-type) appears, allowing users to specify their attribute type.
    • Values under the CUSTOM type are stored as text by default.
  • Backward Compatibility with Graphql API:
    • Attributes created via API that don't match predefined types will be recognized in the UI under the CUSTOM type, with their respective value ready to be overridden
