Input Component Labels

A label describes the purpose of an input component. To set a label on an input component, use the label attribute.

This example shows how to use labels using the label attribute on an input component.

The label is placed on the left of the input field and can be hidden by setting variant="label-hidden", which applies the slds-assistive-text class to the label to support accessibility.

Using $Label

Use the $Label global value provider to access labels stored in an external source. For example:

To output a label and dynamically update it, use the format() expression function. For example, if you have np.labelName set to Hello {0}, the following expression returns Hello World if v.name is set to World.
