Name	Keyword	Types	Description
Label	`label`	Text	Text to display as the field label.
Label Position	`labelPosition`	Text	Determines where the label appears. Valid values: `"ABOVE"` (default) Displays the label above the component. `"ADJACENT"` Displays the label to the left of the component. `"COLLAPSED"` Hides the label. The label will still be read by screen readers; see accessibility considerations for more information. `"JUSTIFIED"` Aligns the label alongside the component starting at the edge of the page.
Instructions	`instructions`	Text	Supplemental text about this field.
Help Tooltip	`helpTooltip`	Text	Displays a help icon with the specified text as a tooltip. The tooltip displays a maximum of 500 characters. The help icon does not show when the label position is `"COLLAPSED"`.
Tags	`tags`	List of Variant	List of tags to display. Configured using a!tagItem().
Alignment	`align`	Text	Determines alignment of the image(s). Valid values: `"START"`, `"CENTER"`, `"END"`.
Accessibility Text	`accessibilityText`	Text	Additional text to be announced by screen readers. Used only for accessibility; produces no visible change.
Size	`size`	Text	Determines the size of the tags. Valid values: `"SMALL"`, `"STANDARD"` (default).
Visibility	`showWhen`	Boolean	Determines whether the component is displayed on the interface. When set to false, the component is hidden and is not evaluated. Default: true.

If the tags parameter is null, contains an empty array, or only contains tag items with no text value, then the label and instructions render with no tags displayed.
If multiple tags are displayed in a narrow container, tags can wrap onto multiple lines. An individual tag will never be split onto two lines.
