Forms • Components API

Frontend / Backend integration, interaction, reactivity and validation with Form Components.

Simple configuration and some Python programming (using APIs) in the Form Builder.

Form Builder: Components API (tab, smartbuttons)

Learn more about the Components API types and the usage below.

Contact us for questions, support and training.

Load API

Prepopulate values into Form (input/field) components like textfields, number, datetime, radio and checkbox inputs, datagrid rows etc.

This basically can set the default form data (component values) and configuration of a Form, by backend (Python) programming and APIs in the Form Builder.

The Python code values key, refers to the component's API Property Name in the Form Builder

Validation API

Implement backend/server validations for Forms with Python code, having full API (eg ORM/database) access to implement any validation logic.

Form with errors ...

Change API

Upon change of an input component, use the Form Builder API (Python Code) to return data and/or configuration to change/update other Form components.

This enables highly reactive and dynamic Forms, through integration by backend (Python) programming and APIs.

The Python code values key, refers to the component's API Property Name in the Form Builder

Select/dropdown and checkboxes: getData & Domain API

Select component

Fetch, filter and load data/records into a select component's choices/options, by backend (Python) programming and APIs.

Select Boxes component

Fetch, filter and load data/records (by JSON) into a select/check boxes (component: Select Boxes), by backend (Python) programming and APIs.

About the Components API

Some features and examples

API Applies for and when (on event) Description
Load API Upon form load, so one time. Set default form data (component values) and configuration of a form, by Python Code in the Form Builder.
Especially used to prepopulate form components like textfields, radio and checkbox inputs, datagrid rows etc.

Examples:
  • Load customer info. So the form respondent doesn't have to provide all details, which avoids input effort and mistakes.
  • Load data from invoices, eg from a certain period, into a datagrid. A datagrid row represents the invoice with necesary fields (as form components).
  • Load data from shipments from a certain period. Put every invoice as a row in a datagrid.
Validation API Provides backend (server) validation on form submission for input components, which shows the errors in the form. Implement backend/server validations for Forms with Python code, having full ORM (database) access to implement any validation logic.
getData & Domain API Select components with a configured (Odoo) URL endpoint.
Upon click on the select component. 		Fetch, filter and load (Odoo) data into a select component's choices/options.
Which also can be (dynamically) filtered by a Domain API, defined with Python Code in the Form Builder.

Examples, to load into a select component:
  • Countries
  • Products, filtered by anything eg. category, stockable etc.
  • Contacts (partners) from the commercial partner of the logged in portal user.
  • Serial/Lot numbers belonging to the shipments of the commercial partner of the logged in portal user.
Change API Upon change of an input component (textfield, radio, checkox, select, datagrid, etc). Upon change of an input component, use the Form Builder API (Python Code) to return data and/or configuration to change/update other Form components.

Examples:
  • Upon choosing a country (in select component), prefill the country-code of a phonenumber component.
  • Upon choosing a product category (in select component), change the domain API parameters to filter the Product select (component) by the choosen category.
  • Upon providing a year (in textfield or select component), load all invoices from that year in a datagrid component (as invoice per row).
