Updated
The article outlines the steps to create a Number Field in Entity Studio.
Creating a Number Field in Entity Studio
Navigate to Launchpad. From the Sprinklr Service tab, click Entity Studio from the Persona Apps section.
The Entity Manager page appears with the list of entities.
Search for the desired entity in the search bar. Click on the 3 dots and then click the View button next to the entity name.
On the left navigation pane, click Fields and Relationships.
Click Create Field on the top right corner of the Record Manager. The Create Field Page appears.
Select Number from the Field Type drop-down.
The following are the fields that needs to be filled in the Record Manager page.
Fields | Description |
Field Type | Choose the Number Field type if you want to enter, store, or edit any combination of numbers. Use this field type if you wish to add phone numbers, alternative numbers, or any other number-based information in your form. |
Name | You can add a number name here and cannot add text. If you input text, the system will register and allow to enter the text. For example: Phone Number, Customer ID etc,. |
API Reference ID | API Reference ID is a unique identifier used to reference fields and objects when interacting with the Sprinklr platform via APIs. For example, you can provide API reference ID as phone_number. |
Help Text | Help text appears as a tooltip or is shown below the field, depending on the configuration. It offers quick hints without cluttering the UI. For example, you can write, “Enter the customer’s phone number.” |
Placeholder | This text will be shown in the field in its empty state. For example, “Enter phone number”. |
Default Value | If no default value is added in the Number Field in the Record form, you can add a desired default value that should be filled in the Record Form. There is an option to increase or decrease the default value by clicking on the upward or downward arrow button next to the default value field. |
Mandatory Field | When mandatory field is enabled, new record creation will fail if there is no input in the current field. In cases where the default value is not set and is empty, and if the mandatory field is enabled, then the error will be thrown. If the default value is set, then the error will not be triggered. |
Enable Sorting | This field is already enabled by default while creating a Number field. You can enable this option if not enabled to allow sorting records in the Record Manager using the values in this field. For example, you can sort Phone Numbers in ascending or descending order. |
Do not allow Duplicate Values | Enable this option to disallow any duplicate values in the Record Form. For example, if you add duplicate phone numbers of the same customer in the Record form by mistake, the system will trigger an error and will not allow duplicate entries. The system will accept only unique entries. |
Enable Cloning | Allows the field value to be copied when a record is cloned. This is useful in scenarios where new records are often created based on existing ones, such as tickets, orders, or configurations. |
Click on the Save icon in the bottom right corner once you input the field details.
