how can I create a form automatically

Confluence User - 25 Oct, 2024

so I am looking for a way to create a form automatically 
not create a form, more like automate the filling in the form details.

for example, let's say I have 2 form 

In the first form, I will key in all the necessary information in that field manually. Now, when I press save, I want Form 2 to also be created with some of the information I keyed in Form 1. However, it will have a be saved in a different table and Form ID


Basically, even if I update form 1 details form 2 should generate another form details but different ID, not update an old value
think of it as Form 2 is a history of Form 1 that holds some of the information, even the old values 


I am not sure if it is possible and if it is I have no idea how to do that
if possible, can I get a clear explanation and screenshot?

or maybe an app that does the same stuff i am looking for that can help me understand more

forms;process;autofill;autopopulate;generate

in Form 1 , go to Form Builder > Settings > Advanced > Post Processing Tool 

and use

  • SQL Query Tool - do a query to insert data into form 2 table
  • Also check whether this tool should run only on creation of form 1, update of form 1 or both

tThis way, the moment you click on save, it will run the SQL Query to say insert selective or all data from Form 1 into Form 2

any user created fields will have a prefix of "c_" . so if your field is called "machine_name", in sql Query its "c_machine_name"
