Not able to get Text value, only height and width

I have a textbox that has “hello”. I am trying to send this textbox’s value as data to url. However, when I look at options of what data to send, I only see the text’s height or width, not the value or string of the text.

You need to use an Input element instead of a Text element.

Ah i get it, because the text can be like a paragraph long. What if I wanted the text to be a customer’s name. And i wanted to send text to the next page, but I do not want to store it the database.

Use a “state”, it’s like a temporary storage where you can store data without saving in database or use “URL Parameters” when sending data from one page to another.

A text element’s value cannot be referenced. If the text is hardcoded, then you can either hardcode it in multiple places or you can put the text element in a group, set that that group’s type to text and then reference the group’s value in the workflow action.

If the text’s value is dynamic, then whatever expression is being used to populate that text element can also be used in the workflow action
