Input components

Input components collect values in create, edit and filter forms. You rarely mount them by hand — SchemaInput picks one from the field's type and format, and an InputProvider can override that choice.

Component	What it collects
SchemaInput	Dispatcher — resolves type + format to one of the components below
TextInput	Single-line or multiline text, with prefix/postfix adornments
NumberInput	A number, parsed and formatted for the active locale
DateInput and DateTimeInput	A date or a date and time, via a MUI X picker
TimeInput	A time of day, stored as HH:MM:SS
DateRangeInput	A date range, picked in a calendar popover
BooleanInput	A switch — a tri-state toggle when used as a filter
ChoicesInput	One value from an enum, as a dropdown
UploadInput	Files and images, base64 or chunked
PhoneNumberInput	A phone number with a country selector
SchemaObjectInput	The properties of a nested object
SchemaObjectArrayInput	A repeatable list of objects
SchemaArrayInput	An array of scalars, enum values or references
SchemaReferenceInput	A related record, via autocomplete — or a checkbox tree for a hierarchy
SchemaRangeInput	A lower/upper pair of any input type
SchemaPredictiveTextInput	Text with AI suggestions accepted by Tab
Czech local flavor inputs	IČO, DIČ, birth number, ID card number, bank account

Common props

Every input accepts these props (InputProps); the per-component pages document only what they add on top.

Name	Type	Default	Description
source (required)	string	—	Name of the field in the form record
label	string | ReactElement | false	label from the schema	false hides the label
helperText	string | ReactElement | false	helpText from the schema	Text under the input; false removes the reserved space
validate	Validator | Validator[]	from the schema	React Admin validators
isRequired	boolean	from the schema	Marks the input required
size	'small' | 'medium'	'small'	MUI input size
fullWidth	boolean	depends on the box	Stretches the input to its container
alwaysOn	boolean	false	Filter inputs only — keeps the filter visible without adding it first
defaultValue	string | boolean | number	defaultValue from the schema	Initial value in a create form
placeholder	string	—	Placeholder text
disabled	boolean	false	Disables the input while keeping it in the form
readOnly	boolean	false	Renders the value without allowing edits
className	string	—	Class applied to the input wrapper
sx	SxProps<Theme>	—	MUI style override

caution

InputProps carries no options key. The input components take explicit props (numberFormat, prefix, postfix, choices, iconsKey, accept, maxFiles, …); it is InputProvider's default implementation that reads the schema's options object and maps it onto those props before rendering the component directly. Each page's Schema options section states which key maps where.
