# Input Text Node

> Automatically types text or variables into input fields, such as search bars or forms.

Overview

The Input Text node is used to automatically enter text into web input fields, such as search bars, form fields, or message boxes, replacing manual entry.

**Use Cases**

* Entering keywords in a search box and triggering a search with [Click Element](/learn/basics/node-types/click-element-node).
* Automatically filling out registration forms, login information, or contact details.
* Entering messages in comment boxes, chat boxes, or guestbooks.
* Using parameters to batch input different content (e.g., different product names, emails).

**Core Capabilities**

* Locates input fields within the visible area via natural language description.
* Automatically clears existing content and enters the specified text.
* Supports referencing preceding node parameters as dynamic input content.

**Configuration Steps**

1. Add an **Input Text** node.
2. Configure **Input Box Description**, for example:
   * "The search box at the top of the page"
   * "The email address input field in the registration form"
   * "The message input box in the bottom right corner of the page"
3. Configure **Text Content**:
   * Directly enter fixed text (e.g., `customer service`).
   * Enter `/` to reference parameters, such as `{{product_name}}` or `{{user_email}}`.
4. At runtime, the node will automatically:
   * Locate the described input box.
   * Clear original content.
   * Enter the specified text and proceed to the next step.

**Recommendations**

* Each Input Text node is responsible for one input field. Use multiple nodes for multiple fields.
* If the input box is not in the current visible area, use a Scroll node first to navigate to the corresponding area.
* For dynamic input (content changing with loops), prioritize using parameter references (`/`) for easier reuse.
* For scenarios where pages load slowly, consider adding a [**Wait**](/learn/basics/node-types/wait-node) node before Input Text.
