About This Feature
Overview
Recognize Input Fields is a chat input capability in WPS for Windows. When you paste a link into the message box, WPS identifies the link type and shows a card preview or card label before sending, so recipients can understand the content more quickly.
Supported link types include cloud document links, schedule links, meeting links, and multidimensional table links. This feature is useful for group chats, direct chats, collaboration notices, and meeting communication where structured sharing is more helpful than a plain URL.

| Network | An active internet connection is recommended so online links can be recognized and previews can load |

Compare with Alternatives
| Dimension | WPS | Microsoft | Notion | Adobe | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Capability Summary | Paste a link directly into the chat input box, and WPS can recognize the link type and generate a structured card preview or label before sending. | Teams supports sending links, files, and pictures in chat, and many attachment types can show previews automatically; links can also be inserted into the message box. | Google Chat supports sending messages from the message field, sharing files, adding meeting links, and formatting content; the official page does not clearly describe the same kind of automatic card recognition scope. | Notion supports pasting supported links as Preview or Mention, and after authentication it can show synced preview content. | Acrobat officially documents sharing documents by link, mainly for PDF sharing and viewing, rather than chat-input link recognition. |
| WPS Advantages | Advantage: WPS focuses on the paste-and-recognize flow inside the chat input box, so you can review the card preview or label before sending. | Compared with WPS: Teams supports link sending and attachment previews, but the official guidance is broader chat composition rather than input-box recognition for structured cards. | Compared with WPS: Google Chat provides message composition and link insertion, but the official help page does not describe the same input-box card recognition behavior. | Compared with WPS: Notion preview behavior is more page-oriented and may require choosing Preview or Mention plus connecting external apps. | Compared with WPS: Acrobat is closer to document link sharing than automatic recognition and card sending inside a chat input box. |
| Official Source | — | Send a file, picture, or link in Microsoft Teams | Create, send & reply to messages in Google Chat | Link previews | Share documents via link in Acrobat on the web |
Overall Conclusion
WPS Recognize Input Fields is more focused on recognizing links during message composition and showing a structured result before sending. Microsoft and Google emphasize broader messaging workflows, Notion centers on page-based previews, and Adobe mainly covers document link sharing.
Use Cases
| No. | Scenario | Suitable for | Main issue | How this feature helps |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Share collaboration documents in a group chat | Team members | Plain links do not clearly show content type | A cloud document card preview appears after pasting |
| 2 | Send meeting information in a direct chat | Project members | Recipients may not identify the meeting entry quickly | Meeting links can be recognized and shown as cards |
| 3 | Share schedule arrangements | Coordinators and assistants | Schedule links are hard to understand without context | Structured schedule information appears after recognition |
| 4 | Share multidimensional table links | Operations and project teams | Table links are less readable in chat | Card labels improve link readability |
| 5 | Confirm content before sending | All chat users | Users may worry about sending the wrong link type | The recognized result can be checked before sending |
