<Note>This component is returned by [`useForm()`](../../forms/use-form).</Note>

Use `<TextInput />` for single-line string fields. For multi-line text (e.g. descriptions, notes, or comments), use [`<TextArea />`](./text-area) instead. The component binds to a `string` field in your [form schema](../../forms/form-schema).

## Example

```tsx form-text-input-dialog.tsx theme={"system"}
import React from "react"
import {Forms, useForm, showToast} from "attio/client"

export function FormTextInputDialog() {
  const {Form, SubmitButton, TextInput} = useForm(
    {
      firstName: Forms.string(),
      lastName: Forms.string(),
    },
    {
      firstName: "",
      lastName: "",
    },
  )
  return (
    <Form
      onSubmit={async (values) => {
        await showToast({
          title: "Form submitted",
          variant: "success",
          text: JSON.stringify(values),
        })
      }}
    >
      <TextInput label="First name" name="firstName" />
      <TextInput label="Last name" name="lastName" />
      <SubmitButton label="Submit" />
    </Form>
  )
}
```
