Show error message on form

[Community Alums]

Hello

I want to how to show a message at the bottom of the field, not just pop up message. I just want to put error message at the bottom of the manager field if the manager is empty the error message will show.

Hi @Community Alums ,

You can use below script on client script as per your requirment

var mange=g_form.getValue('manager_field_backedname');

if(mange==''){

g_form.showFieldMsg('manager_field_backendname', 'Manager field should not empty', 'error');

}

Please mark it as solution proposed and helpful if it serves your purpose.

@Community Alums You can use  showFieldMsg method of g_form to show message below a field.

g_form.showFieldMsg('manager','Low impact response time can be one week','info');

Hello,

When do you want to show this message?

When user tries to save the form? -> If yes, then make sure manager field is not mandatory and the have a onSubmit client script with the script snippet mentioned by Anand in above reply.

If you need that message in some other instance let know, we might have to approach differently

HI @Community Alums ,
I trust you are doing great.
Please find the below code for the same.

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading) {
    if (isLoading || newValue === '') {
        return;
    }
    // Assuming 'manager' is the field name of the Manager field
    if (g_form.getValue('manager') === '') {
        // Displaying an error message
        g_form.showFieldMsg('manager', 'Please select a manager.', 'error');
    } else {
        // Clear any existing messages if the manager is selected
        g_form.hideFieldMsg('manager');
    }
}
