| Default value | This value acts as placeholder for the date picker component, if any value is not provided then the default value will be used from the picker. The default value needs to be a String with respect to the format field. Ex: If format is set to MM/YYYY then provide default value as 04/2022. |
| Format | This value acts as placeholder for the date picker component, if any value is not provided then the default value will be used from the picker.

| Enable date selection? | Toggle on or off to enable the date selection. You can programmatically determine the value by clicking on fx to set the value {{true}} or {{false}}. |
| Disabled dates | We can give disabled dates property which will make specific dates disabled and cannot be selected. The default value needs to be an array of Strings. |
Example for disabling the 9th of January:
{{['09-01']}}
Now user won't be able to select the mentioned date since it will be disabled.

| value | Holds the value entered by the user in the component. | Accessible dynamically with JS (for e.g.,{{components.datepicker1.value}}). |
Add a validation for the date input in the component using the ternary operator.
Example of validation for selecting dates that are after the current date:
{{moment(components.datepicker1.value, 'DD/MM/YYYY').isAfter(moment()) ? true : 'Date should be after today'}}
A Tooltip is often used to specify extra information about something when the user hovers the mouse pointer over the component.
Under the <b>General</b> accordion, you can set the value in the string format. Now hovering over the component will display the string as the tooltip.
