Date Picker block

Use the Date Picker block when you need structured date input such as appointments, deadlines, or next steps.

Setup

  1. Add the Date Picker block from the Questions palette.
  2. Set a prompt and use the calendar toggle to restrict the allowed range (past, future, or both).
  3. Optional: mark the question as required so the respondent cannot continue without a date.
  4. Save the date to a variable if you plan to reuse it later in automation or Jump Logic.

Settings

  • Allowed range: Choose past only, future only, or both, and set min/max bounds.
  • Required: Enforces a calendar selection before advancing.
  • Default value: Pre-fill with today or another specific date to reduce friction.
  • Variable mapping: Write the date into a custom variable so you can reference {{variable.key}} inside completion copy or automation.

Logic & Routing

  • Jump Logic can inspect the selected date (or a derived variable) to skip to another block, open lead capture, or finish early.
  • Use the Logic & Branching guide to combine date comparisons with other conditions.

Tips

  • Use short prompts that clarify the required format (e.g., “Select your preferred kickoff date”).
  • Combine with the Agent Step or derived variables when you need natural-language interpretation of the date (e.g., “next Friday”).
  • Display the stored date in completion copy via {{variable.key}} or in automations that trigger reminders.
