I’m having issues building a helper text below two inputs I created using builder. I want them to appear as the user clicks on each input, any thoughts on how can this be done using builder?

Hi @Eduardo,

Yes, you can add helper text to any field. To add helper text if you are using react, you can create [custom react components](https://www.builder.io/c/docs/custom-components-setup), you can use `helperText`. For example:

```auto
name: 'Heading',
  inputs: [{ name: 'title', type: 'text', helperText: 'Some help regarding what to enter' }]

```

Let us know if you have any further questions. Thank you!
