## Catalog Wizard Step

This defines individual steps within a catalog wizard. Key fields allow you to:

* Name and uniquely identify each step.
* Associate the step with a specific wizard.
* Control visibility via hiding on templates and marking custom steps.
* Provide descriptions and feedback options linked to the step.
* Set the display order in the Catalog Builder.
* Use reusable UI components (macropoents) for custom step creation when custom steps are enabled.

## Catalog Wizard Section

Sections organize content within a wizard step. Important fields include:

* Unique name and short description.
* Display style and width for layout control.
* Order to manage sequence inside the step.
* Association with a specific wizard step.

## Variable

Variables represent the questions or input fields presented to catalog item creators. Key configurable options are:

* Mapping to catalog item or record producer fields.
* Variable type selection for appropriate data capture.
* Activation, mandatory status, visibility (hidden or read-only).
* Defining the question text, name, tooltip help text, and example input hints.

Example hints are supported for types such as IP Address, Email, URL, single and multi-line text, and date/time.

## Catalog Wizard Question

Questions tie variables to specific sections and control their order and grouping:

* Associate questions with wizard sections and optionally with question sets.
* Define display order within a section.
* Create new variables or select existing ones to link to questions.

This structure supports flexible, guided data collection during catalog item creation.
