    Note: This task is applicable only to Zoho Creator.

    Overview

    The Disable deluge task disables a specified field on the form. The disabled field will be grayed out, and the user will not be able to add data to that field.

    The Enable deluge task reverses the Disable action and re-enables a disabled field for users to fill it out in the form.

    Note:

    Syntax

    To disable a field

    disable <field_link_name>;

    To enable a field

    enable <field_link_name>;
    ParamExplanation
    <field_link_name>

    Link name of the field which needs to be disabled or re-enabled.

    Points to keep in mind for this parameter:

    • Since the Autonumber field type is not displayed in a form, it cannot be specified in this task.
    • For composite field types like Name and Address, the action of disabling/enabling the main field will be applied to all its subfields, by default.  To enable/disable a particular subfield you must specify it along with the main field, for example: disable Name.last_name;
    • The action of disabling/enabling the Section field type is not supported.
