# Title

By default, the Title field is available for all [content types](/docs/headless-cms/about-content-types) created. It accepts single-line text and does not provide any formatting options or line breaks. The value entered in this field, while creating an entry, is considered as the title of the [entry](/docs/headless-cms/about-entries).

This field possesses certain [properties](/docs/headless-cms/about-field-properties) that you can change at any time as per your needs. The properties that can be modified are “[Display Name](/docs/headless-cms/display-name),” “[Placeholder Value](/docs/headless-cms/placeholder-value),” “[Instruction Value](/docs/headless-cms/instruction-value),” “[Help Text](/docs/headless-cms/help-text),” “[Number of Characters](/docs/headless-cms/number-of-characters),” “[Validation (Regex)](/docs/headless-cms/validation-regex),” and “[Validation Error Message](/docs/headless-cms/validation-error-message),” and “[Non-localizable](/docs/headless-cms/non-localizable).”

**Additional Resource:** You can read more about [Field Visibility Rules](/docs/headless-cms/about-field-visibility-rules) in our documentation where we have covered it extensively.

After configuring this field in content type, you will see it on your entry page as shown below:
