spModal Prompt for input with proper label (Not Just red asterisk)

[Chirag A]

In widget client script, if you are trying to take an input from the user using spModal.Prompt you must have ended with a dialog where there is input box but there is no label along with it but only *, that seems very odd.

you must have also tried below knowledge articles which are near to the solution; but that is not satisfactory.

1) How to use spModal.prompt; Shows no label, but * alone

https://docs.servicenow.com/bundle/kingston-application-development/page/app-store/dev_portal/API_re...

 

2) How to put label with prompt; Shows label but not where we exact want.

https://developer.servicenow.com/dev.do#!/reference/api/orlando/client/SPModal-API

 3) Working Solution: The label comes as expected

 

We used the solution (2) but modified the JSON parameter for open method, used the "label" instead of "message", as below...

 
	spModal.open({
		title: 'Give me a name',
		label: 'Please type name here...',
		input: true,
		value: c.name
	}).then(function(name) {
		c.name = name;
	})

use "message" not "label"

Is there a way we can make input as multi line text ?
