# inputEx - Group interactions

## Using a checkbox to show/hide another field

Use an action

inputEx({ type: "group", parentEl: 'container1', fields: [ { type: 'boolean', // inputex type name: 'toggler', value: true, rightLabel: 'Stay anonymous', interactions: [ { valueTrigger: false, // this action will run when this field value is set to false actions: [ { name: 'username', // name of the field on which the action should run action: 'show' // name of the method to run on the field instance ! } ] }, { valueTrigger: true, // when set to true: actions: [ { name: 'username', action: 'hide' }, { name: 'username', // name of the field on which the action should run action: 'clear' // name of the method to run on the field instance ! } ] } ] }, {type: "string", name: "username", label: "Enter your name" } ] });
