Button in List. Only show if attribute field is not null

Marokapara — Sun, 02 Oct 2022 02:42:12 GMT

Hi ExB community,

I'm putting a button in a list. The button will be connected to an attribute, so when the button is clicked, the url in the attribute field will open up in a new tab.

Sometimes this attribute field is filled out, sometimes it is empty. I only want the button to show when the field has been filled out.

Is this possible in Experience Builder? I thought about having a window pop-up saying no data available if the field isn't filled out, but I can't do that if I have it connected to a URL too.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi @Marokapara ,

The style of the button widget is not controlled by the data, but I think you can use a text widget as an alternative.

Uses a text widget with a hyperlink, so when the field is empty, the text is empty and has no links, and when the field is filled out, the text displays clickable links.

the text alternative works but is ugly compared to a simple button that states what the link is. No progress here 2 years later?

Hi @Marokapara @NseaGIS

The button widget supports dynamic style in the June 2025 AGOL release.

Currently, since visibility is not supported, the button cannot be set to invisible. However, you can use a transparent color as a workaround to set button styles.
