Details
From the project READMEInteractive Input Blocks
Embed interactive UI components (radio buttons, checkboxes, text fields, toggles) directly in chat responses. Compatible clients render these as native UI elements; other clients show a readable JSON code block as fallback.
When to Use
- Quizzes and exercises (single/multiple choice, fill-in-the-blank)
- Surveys and polls
- Structured data collection (forms)
- Any scenario where the user needs to select from options or provide structured input
How It Works
Wrap a JSON block in a ```interactive code fence within your normal markdown response. You can mix regular text and interactive blocks freely in the same message.
Schema Reference
See references/schema.md for the complete schema specification.
Quick Example
When presenting a multiple-choice question, instead of listing options as text:
Here's your first question:
```interactive
{
"id": "q1",
"card": {
"body": [
{ "type": "TextBlock", "text": "What is the capital of France?", "weight": "bold" },
{ "type": "Input.ChoiceSet", "id": "answer", "style": "expanded",
"choices": [
{ "title": "A. London", "value": "london" },
{ "title": "B. Paris", "value": "paris" },
{ "title": "C. Berlin", "value": "berlin" },
{ "title": "D. Madrid", "value": "madrid" }
]
}
],
"actions": [{ "type": "Action.Submit", "title": "Submit" }]
}
}
```
Rules
- Every interactive block MUST have a unique
idfield - Every interactive block MUST have at least one element in
card.body - Include an
Action.Submitincard.actionsso the user can submit their response - Use
"style": "expanded"for choice sets to show all options visually (recommended for quizzes) - Use
"style": "compact"for dropdown selects when there are many options - Set
"isMultiSelect": trueonInput.ChoiceSetfor multiple-choice questions - The first
TextBlockin the body is used as the question label in the submitted response - You can include multiple interactive blocks in one message (e.g., a full quiz)
- Always wrap the JSON in a
```interactivecode fence — never use```jsonfor interactive blocks - Keep the JSON compact and valid — no comments, no trailing commas
