Rich Text Editor Component

Overview

Displays a field that allows for users to type text and format it with a variety of style options.
Output is saved as HTML. To get the raw character output, designers can use the Appian function fn!stripHtml() on the output.
HTML output can be passed into Send E-Mail node or document generation smart services. Note that not all formats supported by the Rich Text Editor component may be supported by e-mail or document generation.

Allows uploading of images which get stored in the specified Appian folder (requires separate install of the Rich Text Editor Connected System Plugin).

Visit End-User Rich Text Editor Component for more information.

  • Dear All,

    We are trying to capture user inputs using rich text editor which contains multiple fonts, bullets etc.. and then this information is used to generate a word document (DOCX). Can you help to suggest how we can generate this word document while retaining the rich text features ?

    Currently we are on Appian 20.3 and we are using smart services available to generate the word document.
