# List of inputs

When registering a protocol in the SWAPP, several input types are available according to the parameter type in Pipeline Pilot.

- **Multi Checkboxes**, available for array of defined values.
- **Multi Selection**, available for array parameters.
- **Yes/No Toggle**, available for Boolean parameters.
- **Hidden field**, available for all non-required parameters.
- **Multi Select**, select with creation of options, available for array parameters without defined values.
- **Select**, available for array parameters with defined values.
- **Long Text**, available for string parameters with no defined values.
- **Text**, available for string parameters with no defined values.
- **Number**, available for float or integer parameters. Note that Pipeline Pilot enforces a value between -2,147,483,648 and 2,147,483,647.
- **Radio Select**, available for string parameters with a list of allowed values.
- **Password**, available for string parameters with no defined values.
- **Molecule**, available for string parameters with no defined values. Ketcher is used by default; MarvinJS is also available as an alternative sketcher if [configured](/public/docs/connector-spo-pp-admin-references-global-properties) on the Pipeline Pilot server. The output will be the CTAB of the molecule.
- **File(s) to upload**, available for string or array of string parameters with no defined values. The user will be prompted to select one or more file(s) from his/her computer and those files will be uploaded to the Pipeline Pilot's job directory, in the `/temp` folder.
- **TIBCO Spotfire Data Table**, available for string parameters. The data table will then be uploaded as an SBDF file readable with the *Data Table Reader* component. The parameter itself will contain the name of the data table.
- **TIBCO Spotfire Column**, available for string parameters. Intended to work alongside *TIBCO Spotfire Data Table*. You will have the option to specify a filtering method or to use the auto-generated "TSC_ROWID" column which contains a unique value for each input row.
- **TIBCO Spotfire Marked Rows**, available for array of strings or numbers. The output array will contain the values from the selected column of the data table.
- **TIBCO Spotfire Marking**, available for string parameters. The output will be the marking name.
- **TIBCO Spotfire Document Property**, available for string parameters. The output will be a document property's name, value or name concatenated with value, depending on the option chosen at registration.
- **REST API Resource**, available for strings, numbers or array of strings or number with no defined values. The specified endpoint will be used to populate the list of input options. See the [dedicated tutorial](/public/docs/connector-spo-pp-swapp-tutorials-rest-endpoint) to learn how to use it.
  - The endpoint **must** return a **JSON** response containing:
    - either an array of values (number or strings), e.g. `['val1', 'val2', 'val3', 'val4']`
    - or an array of objects with at least a **value** key and optionally **label** and/or **default** keys, e.g. `[{ label: 'My label 1', value: 'val1' }, { value: 'val2' }, { value: 'val3', default: true }, { label: 'My label 4', value: 'val4', default: true }]`
  - When using an array of values or when label is missing, the value itself will be used as label.
  - Defaults only apply at the first load; once the selection is changed, defaults are never re-applied.
  - Multi-value fields pre-select all options marked as default while single-value fields pre-select the first one.
- **Group Field**, available for group of parameters. There is no output.
- **Collapsible Group Field**, available for group of parameters. There is no output.
