# HandleInput - Admin Components

This component is available since Medusa [v2.21.0](https://github.com/medusajs/medusa/releases/tag/v2.21.0).

The `HandleInput` component is a text input with a leading slash, which shows the user that the value is a URL segment. The Medusa Admin uses it in the forms of records that have a handle, such as products, collections, and categories.

```tsx
import { HandleInput } from "@medusajs/dashboard/components"
```

***

## Example

Use `HandleInput` as the control of a `Form` field, as shown in the [Forms guide](https://docs.medusajs.com/resources/admin-components/guides/forms):

```tsx
import {
  Form,
  HandleInput,
} from "@medusajs/dashboard/components"

const HandleField = ({ control }) => {
  return (
    <Form.Field
      control={control}
      name="handle"
      render={({ field }) => (
        <Form.Item>
          <Form.Label
            optional
            tooltip="Used in the brand's URL."
          >
            Handle
          </Form.Label>
          <Form.Control>
            <HandleInput {...field} />
          </Form.Control>
          <Form.ErrorMessage />
        </Form.Item>
      )}
    />
  )
}
```

The slash is decorative, so the field's value doesn't include it.

***

## Props

`HandleInput` accepts the same props as the [Input UI component](https://docs.medusajs.com/ui/components/input), including the following:

- value: (\`string\`) The input's value, without the leading slash.
- onChange: (\`(event: React.ChangeEvent\<HTMLInputElement>) => void\`) The function to execute when the user changes the input's value.
- placeholder: (\`string\`) The placeholder to show when the input is empty.
- disabled: (\`boolean\`) Whether the input is disabled.

`HandleInput` also accepts every other prop of the [Input component](https://docs.medusajs.com/ui/components/input), such as `size` and `id`, along with the attributes of a native input element.
