Description

Description

Please see #1443 for previous user comments on this request.

Schema/Spec

Requirements

  1. Need to evaluate the implementation using secure strings

  2. Security concerns about submitting the data is plain-text Call out in documentation that this is not cryptographically secure

  3. If the underlying control supports the 'Show Password' button, it should be on; otherwise, no requirement for this

  4. When style is set to password, the multiline property should be ignored.

  5. Validation should run on the password

Examples

{
   "type": "Input.Text",
   "id": "secretThing",
   "style": "password"
}
