Hello. Is there a way to clear a “text_input”? I created a “Question-Answering” App (this consists of loading a “context” and asking a question, an already trained HuggingFace model returns one or more answers). In my App the context (which is a document) is chosen with a “selectbox” and the questi…

This other question is related to the one I placed above: The example “Mirrored Widgets using Session State” ( Session State for Streamlit. You can now store information across… | by abhi saini | Towards Data Science ) is not working anymore as shown in the gift? I am not getting the same result on my…

I think the code below sums up my question. By printing the “session_state.text” I can see that it is actually updating during the callback, however the text in the “text_input” appears despite the session_state.text = “”. import streamlit as st import pandas as pd def get_save(): st.session_sta…

@jgcaceresr to clear text_input, you can do like this: import time import streamlit as st text = st.empty() text.text_input("input something", value="", key="1") time.sleep(5) text.text_input("input something", value="", key="2") you input something first in st.text_input, and wait 5 seconds, you…

Thank you @BeyondMyself . I had already incorporated that approach into my actual code (it would be similar to the code below) and it doesn’t work correctly. When it is executed for the first time “apparently” it works fine, but in the second time the text that is put in “text_input” disappears after…

@jgcaceresr Hi, did you resolve this? I have same issue, whereby I have form and an additional “clear” button where I’d like to clear all text input. Having different keys for same input I have same issue where entered text disappears (as it’s replaced by the other keyed version from session state). …

Posted a working example of form with clear button to clear input fields here: [image] Clear the text in text_input 🎈 Using Streamlit For posterity and hoping to help others, a working example form with clear button and callback that clears input fields: import streamlit…

In your case, this would not help?: Use “st.form” and “st.form_submit_button”, the former with the parameter: clear_on_submit = True ( st.form - Streamlit Docs , st.form_submit_button - Streamlit Docs )

Unfortunately not, as my use case is a form for search terms applied to document search. Terms are iteratively modified to adjust results list. Do not want to clear them on every submit.

This seems to be the cleanest way to do this https://github.com/streamlit/streamlit/issues/4195#issuecomment-998909519 I think you should be able to do this by using st.session_state and callbacks: See here for more info on session state. Btw the callback above is needed so the clearing happens b…
