Attributes

Remarks

Use this method to collect text input from the user when the task needs attention. The {userTextInput} expression in the URI template is replaced with the URL-encoded user input. For example, if the template is my-app:task/?response={userTextInput} and the user enters "scope only", the resulting URI will be my-app:task/?response=scope%20only.
