For example, in below code snippet, there are some types for custom metabox input fields such as text and textarea.So, I want to learn other types.I searched it on google also w.se but I couldnt.For example, I want to learn e-mail type.

array(
    'name' => 'Instagram',

It would be useful if you specify if you are using a plugin to develop these metaboxes, to narrow down the answer.

If you're working with CMB2, you're looking for text_url field ty (see the full list in CMB2 GitHub page.).

If you're working with MetaBox, then text would be the one as url fields are implicit within it. See the full list of field types here.

Same goes for ACF (text field) or page_link. Check the full list of available field types in their official docs.

But then there's the option to create your own field types.

Hope this helps.
