Create a slider option for a number input on your input form screen. Sliders help users visualize the input range and reduce errors by limiting choices to defined minimum and maximum values.

## Before you begin

Role required: admin

This task assumes that you already have the basis of an input form screen configured before adding the slider option for a number input. For more information, see [Configure an input form screen](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/PVSI3Faa8_DKNk1SxKRsJQ "Configure an input parameter so that your users can see a list of records from their mobile app. To access a record from the list, a user just has to tap the record name.").

## About this task

Creating a slider render type is more involved than for the other render types: integer, line, percentage. The configuration involves the creation of multiple input attributes, some are required and others are optional. To create a slider option for a number input, you must have at least the following configurations:

* RenderType is Slider
* Min input attribute
* Max input attribute
* StepSize input attribute

{#configure-slider__ul_kdc_t2m_bgc}You can add additional number input attributes to the ones listed. For a complete list, check the Number inputs section in [Input form screen attributes for inputs](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/EKaX~e6Ccz9_7N5~4dKDWw "Different types of inputs are available for use in input form screens, and you can use different attributes to configure the inputs.").

To view how different types of sliders display, see [Slider types and their input attributes](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/GvZ596GiWx3l09d48BrOAw "Review the sections to see slider type examples and learn which input attributes are used to create them.").

## Procedure

1. Navigate to AllSystem MobileMobile App Builder.  
   The Mobile App Builder opens in a new browser tab and displays the application scope selection screen.
2. Search for the application scope you're working in and then select the name of the application scope.  
   The Mobile App Builder categories home screen displays.
3. Select the  Screens category.
4. Select either an existing input form screen or select New, then the Input form and then Continue.
5. Scroll down to the Inputs section of the form and then either select an input to modify it or select  New  to create an input.  
   The Input form appears. For more information about configuring inputs, see [Configure input form screen inputs](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/apSm79jzLJCtKl4X~5n3qw "Configure the input fields that your users use to enter information. You can use screen inputs to determine the input type, question text, placeholder values, and other attributes.").
6. In the Input type field within the Settings area, select Number.
7. Complete any other fields as required and select Save.
8. Select RenderType from the Name field, select Slider from the Value field, then select Save.
9. Select the Input record from the navigation tree, then select New in the Input attributes area.
10. From the Name field, select Min and enter the lowest value to be displayed at the start of your slider, then select Save.
11. Select the Input record from the navigation tree, then select New in the Input attributes area.
12. From the Name field, select Max and enter the highest value to be displayed at the end of your slider, then select Save.
13. Select the Input record from the navigation tree, then select New in the Input attributes area.
14. From the Name field, select StepSize and enter a number that represents each incremental number on the slider, then select Save.  
    Note:  
    The steps must be a number divisible between the max and min size input attributes.
15. **Optional:** Add any additional input parameters that are applicable to the slider you want to create.  
    For a list of the slider types, see [Slider types and their input attributes](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/GvZ596GiWx3l09d48BrOAw "Review the sections to see slider type examples and learn which input attributes are used to create them.").  
    Note:  
    If you select the Decoration input attribute, which displays sections on the slider with corresponding labels, you must apply additional configuration. For more information, see [Configure a decorative slider](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/UF5qAif3WwmRJpssxifRtQ "Create a colored slider option for a number input on your input form screen. Decorative sliders contain sections that can be associated with a specific color and label to aid visual representation. These labels are translatable.").
