Conditional Parameter based on User input in Jenkins

Question

I have a requirement to call a parameter based on user input for another parameter. In short,

I have a parameter for build_type with choice values Daily, Release and Snapshot. Only whenever user selects Snapshot option for build_type, it should prompt user to enter snapshot name.

Do we have any plugin for this ?

Thanks, Ras.

Give this a try https://wiki.jenkins.io/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=74875956
Its straight forward you can also try this https://wiki.jenkins.io/display/JENKINS/Extended+Choice+Parameter+plugin

EDITED
It does work, you just have to do a bit of groovy scripting :)

First you need to select Active Choice Parameter

Then select Active Choice Reactive reference Parameter

Groovy script

   if(States.equals("Snapshot")){
inputBox="<input name='Snapshot' type='text' >"
}

I'll leave the beautification/formatting to you :)
