Displaying Data in a Table

In this example, there is an array of objects and the goal is to create a table interface to show those values (Figure 2).

<Flex width="100%" height="100%" direction="column" alignX="start" padding="4">
    <Heading level="3">Order History</Heading>
    <table>
        <tr>
            {["Order Number", "Price", "Date"].map(label => (
                <th><Label>{label}</Label>
                    <Divider />
                </th>
            ))}
        </tr>
        {[
            { orderNumber: 'PT1234', price: '5000', date: '22/10/26' },
            { orderNumber: 'PT5678', price: '3000', date: '21/04/26' },
            { orderNumber: 'PT1659', price: '1000', date: '22/05/31' }
        ].map(order => (
            <tr>
                <td><Text>{order.orderNumber}</Text></td>
                <td><Text>{order.price}</Text></td>
                <td><Text>{order.date}</Text></td>
            </tr>
        ))}
    </table>
</Flex>

Displaying Data in List Mode

In this example, there is an array of objects, and the goal is to create a list interface to show those values (Figure 3).

<Flex direction="column" paddingX="1" gap="4" direction="column" width="100%">
    {[
        { label: 'Order Number', value: 'PT1234' },
        { label: 'Price', value: '5000€' },
        { label: 'Date', value: '22/10/26' }
    ].map((field) => (
        <Flex gap="1" direction="column" width="100%">
            <Label>{field.label}</Label>
            <Text>{field.value}</Text>
            <Divider />
        </Flex>
    ))}
</Flex>

Trigger Action Button

These are basic examples of how you can use a Button to trigger an action.

Setting Custom Variables

This example shows how a Button can be used to set or update variables.
In this scenario, you can use the onClick handler with Context.setVariable(“variable”, “value”) to set the variable value. In this case, it is to confirm the payment variable as true (Figure 4).

<Flex padding="8" direction="column" gap="4" width="100%" height="100%">
  <Text>The reservation {Context.getVariable("reservation_id")} has been created.</Text>
  <Flex width="100%" alignX="end" height="100%" alignY="end">
      <Button onClick={() => Context.setVariable("paid", "true")}>Confirm payment</Button>
  </Flex>
</Flex>

Following an Exit

This example shows how you can use an Exit when the user clicks a Button.
In this scenario, when a Button is clicked, it executes the goToExit action and it will redirect the flow through the respective exit to the specified component (Figure 5).

<Flex padding="8" direction="column" gap="4" width="100%" height="100%">
  <Text>The reservation {Context.getVariable("reservation_id")} was successfully canceled.</Text>
  <Flex width="100%" alignX="end" height="100%" alignY="end"
   onClick={() => actions.goToExit("back")}>
    <Button>Go Back</Button>
  </Flex>
</Flex>
