How to enable/disable a button in Oracle Visual Builder

In interactive web applications, it’s essential to manage user actions effectively, especially when triggering backend processes or API calls. One common requirement is to temporarily disable a button after it’s clicked, preventing users from submitting multiple requests until a response is received. This not only improves the user experience but also ensures data consistency and system performance.

In this article, we’ll show you how to implement button enable/disable logic in Oracle Visual Builder based on event-driven actions, giving you greater control over your application’s behaviour.

Follow these steps to get started:

Log in to your Oracle Visual Builder (VBCS) application.
Create a new flow and give it a meaningful name.
Within that flow, create a new page and name it appropriately.
Open the page, navigate to the Components palette, and search for the Button component.
Drag the Button onto your page.

The Button component includes a property called Disabled, which accepts a boolean value (true or false). By default, this value is false, meaning the button is enabled. However, you can bind this property to an expression—if the expression evaluates to true, the button will be disabled; otherwise, it remains enabled.

We’ll leverage this property to control the button’s enabled/disabled state based on specific events or processing logic. To see a detailed walkthrough of how to implement this, refer to the video tutorial below :
