Hi @davidsantos

I don’t believe that’s possible without a custom UFM component, someone else asked a similar question here:

Umbraco 16.2 block grid label fallbacks with UFM Expressions

In Umbraco 13 I would commonly set up blocks with a configurable label to make them easier to distinguish in the editor UI. For example, a “Rich Text” block would have A “label” property on the settings document type, which would fall back to… A “richText” property on the content document type that could be stripped of HTML and truncated, which would fall back to… The content type name (i.e. “Rich Text”) The block definition label would look something like this: {{$settings.label ? ($conten…

You could just use a fallback like this and hard code the content type name:

{umbValue: title | fallback:Rich Text Block}

Or see if you can create a custom UFM component.
