Licenses	COMMUNITY, ENTERPRISE, CORPORATE
Since	VERSION 6.0

The type inside a JSON schema defines the data format of a field. Furthermore based on this type, form fields are rendered automatically in order to fit the defined format. The supported format types are:

Format	Configuration example	Description
Date	"myDate": { "type": "string", "format": "date" }	Meant for a single date. Shows-up as date picker in the form.
Text	"myText": { "type": "string" }	Meant for small amount of text. Shows-up as single-line input field in the form.
Single-List	"mySingleList": { "type": "string", "enum":["male", "female"] }	Meant for lists where only one element can be selected from. Shows-up as single-select drop-down in the form.
Multi-List	"someMultiList": { "type": "array", "items": { "type": "string", "enum": ["item1", "item2"] } }	Meant for lists where multiple elements can be selected from. Shows-up as multi-select drop-down in the form.
Yes/No	"myYesNo": { "type": "boolean" }	Meant for yes/no (true/false) values. Shows-up as checkbox in the form. You can set the attribute `"render":"button"` in the form config in order to display this as a clickable button instead of a checkbox.
Number	"myNumber": { "type": "number" }	Meant for number values. Shows-up as number field in the form.
File	"myFile": { "type": "object", "properties": { "filename": {"type": "string"}, "contentLength": {"type": "number"}, "contentType": {"type": "string"}, "contentEncoding": {"type": "string"}, "content": {"type": "string"} } }	Meant for file attachments to an object. In order to show-up in a form correctly, additionally you need to configure the layout and set `"render":"filepicker"` or `"render":"pdfpreview"` in the form configuration.
