Input and Validation

You need to set specific instructions on your task list so your users know what to do to confirm task completion. To do this, you need to select a type of input, determining what step users should take if they need to mark their tasks completed.

Here are the different input types you can select from:

Checkbox list – selecting this type prompts users to click “done” to confirm task completion.

Client file upload – use this input type if you want users to upload a file to confirm task completion.

Admin file download – select this input type if you want users to download a file to determine task completion.

Admin and client files upload – choosing this input type allows you to upload a file the user must download and re-upload to confirm task completion. 

Client rating – with this type, users need to submit a rating to confirm task completion. You can either use a star rating input or a button group type. You must also input the number of rating items and the value to complete the rating. For example, the default number of rating items is five stars, while the rating value is three. 

Admin rating – the administrators or instructors are the ones to rate the task to confirm and mark its completion.

Turn on the “Validation required” button to set up a validation system. Validators can be managers and admins, admins only, or course instructors. Once you select a validator, enter the person’s email address.
