Using Form Actions

How to use form actions

Form actions are used to "call out" to external services or APIs in response to events or action buttons on a form. They send data from the form to these external systems and can also bring data back into the form.

For example, if you need to update a status in a back-office system, you could add a Select input to your form with available statuses. You would then assign this input to an action that calls the appropriate API endpoint to update the status—before the form is submitted.

Supported form action types include: HTTP Request, IFS Apps 10, IFS Cloud, and Stored Procedure.
