On a SharePoint library workflow, in O365, on my initiation screen I have a text variable that I want to make required, but don't see any handy button that makes it so, like the people/group or choice variables. Is this possible? Am I missing something?

It's only available on the OnPremise version.

A workaround for O365, could be to set a Choice variable with some options and a default value, in that way you 'll be sure that you'll have a value on that Choice variable.

Thanks ‌!

I think we'll have to go with a conditional loop that checks this after kickoff and fails the workflow if this is empty.
