The Fields Formatter feature allows you, to convert the agent text fields into hyperlinks, images and labels. The formatter functions are especially useful to display the text fields into clickable links, viewable images thumbnails and colorful labels with custom color of your choice.

Suppose, you have a website’s URL extracted in an agent field, wouldn’t be it amazing, if you can just click on that link to open that webpage, instead copy-and-paste in the browser address bar.

There are 3 types of formatter functions available to use :

Note: A formatter function doesn’t modify the agent result, but just display the fields result into different HTML tags and styles. So, there is no need to re-run the agent to apply the changes we made in formatter as opposed to post-processing functions where, re-running of agent is requires to see the changes in result. While in formatter, as soon the agent configuration is updated the formatted result can be seen in agent result tab.
