Hello! I've been happy with using flatpickr for questions in my surveys with this guidance (https://community.qualtrics.com/XMcommunity/discussion/8850/embedding-flatpickr-into-the-survey), and want to do the same thing for a the secondary field in an authenticator. The first field is the ExternalDataReference, but the second is a birthdate, and I want to limit data entry errors pertaining to date format. Unfortunately, my Javascript is limited.
Where would I put the script to reference the authenticator field?
Customize Authenticator field with flatpickr

You can do it by making a separate block and include 1 question for the Date. Ask the date in the same manner as you are doing in other questions. The below setup should help you set it up
Hope it helps!
+20Thank you erinkru!! You've just asked about the very thing I'm trying to work out as well!
Deepak - appreciate your input. I can see that working when you want the respondent to select a date value from a question and then pre-fill that value into an Authenticator field. However what I suspect erinkru is seeking - much like myself - is to directly customise the Authenticator field so that it leverages Flatpickr for data entry. Basically, if the Authenticator screen is the first thing that a respondent sees, how could we directly modify the Authenticator field such that it leverages Flatpickr to manage data entry of a date value?
Thanks in advance.
Cheers,
Cameron
