The Tooltip Control allows you to set a tooltip on any field in your Journey.

A User is able to then view the tooltip by hovering over the tooltip icon tagged to the field.

An example of a Tooltip in Loanapp is where the Lender has configured Tooltips providing further information about each of the Living Expense Categories:

How to configure a tooltip to tag a field

To add a tooltip to a particular field, you need to make sure you are in Draft mode in Platform, find the field you want to add the tooltip, and scroll across to the Tooltip Control:

Here I want to add a tooltip to the Cash Out Amount Field. To do this I click on the 3 dots in the Tooltip Control, and I am able to add new current value (content) for the tooltip:

When you click Save, you will now see this Tooltip set against the field in your Platform configuration:

Once published, the tooltip will appear on the field, and when clicked, the user will be able to read the tooltip detail:

Adding an external resource link to a tooltip

You are even able to add a link to an external online source in a tooltip.

In this example, I am adding a link to a lender's credit policy about allowable Cash Out reasons.

To add an external link to a tooltip, you need to follow the same steps as above, but the content you need to add needs the following inserted in it:

<a href="https://whatever_link_you_want_to_add.com.au">Whatever you want the link to show on screen in your journey</a>

eg

When published, this tooltip will then appear on screen like this:

And the user will be able to click through to view the external source.
