Overview

Tab component allows users to organize content into a tabbed interface, enabling easy navigation between different sections of an application acting as a full page container.

Add / Delete Tab

You can add Tabs from the list components to your canvas. This would by default create 3 Tabs in your application. You can add or delete tabs from the properties panel.

To add New Tab, Click on the "+" button in the properties section & click on the Delete icon to remove  a particular tab.

Key Properties

  1. Label: Specifies the text displayed on the tab to indicate its content or purpose.

  2. Redirect to: Redirects users to the input link on accessing the specific tab you set it for.

  3. Badge: This allows you to add number or text badges next to the label in your tab component.

Tip

You can use “Open By Default” Property to choose the tab which you want to show first on opening of your application.

Define Conditional Visibility

Set conditions to disable the tab based on specific criteria by using the "Add Condition" buttons under the "Disabled" section. It makes the tab non-interactive based on specific criteria.

For example, you can disable the tab if a required form field is empty. To set this, click "Add Condition" under the Disabled section and specify the condition.

Define Permissions

The Tab component allows you to set visibility permissions based on the permissions granted to the logged-in user.

This ensures that only authorized users can view or interact with specific tabs. You can also control Visibility across each tab.

Click on the tab for which you want to control permissions and inside that tab’s properties you would find the permission section.
