Harness, Section, and Flow Action forms
Fields — Adding a Data Field for a composite application

Click the down-arrow () at the right end of the Advanced control group () and select the Data Field control (). Drag the control to the cell or header that is to contain the property value. When the pointer changes shape to indicate that a single cell is selected, release the mouse button to drop the control.

If you drop the control into a cell that already has contents, it replaces the current contents of the cell.

Click the magnifying glass () icon to display the Cell Properties panel.

Your updates to this panel can update the rule form immediately or upon clicking Apply, depending on the Property Panel settings in your Edit preferences. See Setting preferences. If the panel is pinned(), the wireframe on the rule form changes immediately to reflect your inputs. If the panel is not pinned(), click Apply to apply your inputs.

Field	Description
	(Appears only when this field is in a section included within the current open rule.) Click to open the section that immediately contains the field.
Property	Select or type a property reference that identifies a single text value. (If you are prototyping a form and the property you want to reference is not yet defined, use the template property .pyTemplateDatafield.)
Display As	Accept the default HTML property rule DataField. This rule uses no parameters.
Behavior	Optional. Leave blank if no dynamic form actions to other parts of the form are to occur based on user updates or values for this field. To establish a dynamic form action, click the magnifying glass icon () to open the Client Event Editor in a new dialog window. Complete the Client Event Editor to select an event (OnBlur, OnChange, or OnClick) and the resulting form action. Click the help icon ( ) on the Client Event Editor for assistance. For general information on this capability, see Implementing dynamic form actions and the Client Event Editor. Client event support is not available for harness, section, or flow action rules that use directives.
