Checkbox
Use Checkbox for a yes or no value.
Checkbox stores a true or false value. Use it when the field asks whether something applies.
Use It For
| Good fit | Example |

| Simple confirmations | Consent Received |
| Yes or no needs | Requires Visa |
| Completed markers | Medical Exam Completed |
Configure
Checkbox supports the standard label, help text, group, and required settings.
Use Radio Buttons instead when users need to choose between labeled choices that are more specific than yes or no.
Validation
Checkbox does not have additional validation rules.
Be careful with Required Field on a Checkbox. Required usually means users must turn it on, which is only appropriate for confirmations such as Consent Received.
