Create, Edit and Delete Task Content

One of the most powerful things about our checklists is that you can add content to your tasks using our controls.

There are two types of controls in CheckFlow. Content Controls display information and Input Controls capture input from the user.

    Display an uploaded or embedded video.

    Display a downloadable file attachment.

  • Mail-To

    A pre-written email that users can send with one click.

    Embed an external website or tool via an iframe.

  • Separator

    A horizontal dividing line to break up task content.

Input Controls​

  • Long Text

    A multi-line text input.

  • E-Mail

    An email address input with format validation.

The controls can be added from the Controls Toolbar located on the right of the Template Designer.

To add a control you can either drag and drop the control from the controls toolbar on to the Task Content area. Or, you can simply click the control on the controls toolbar and it will be added to the task content area.

Depending on the control type, you will have to set up the control for use by setting it's properties. For example, the Short Text control will only need a label to be set, whereas the Drop-Down control wil need a label and the items that will be appear in the drop-down to be set.
