Record form#

A short path from a screen to a record: each form field is a column of the list, and submitting creates or changes the record right away. No separate block is needed.

Settings#

• "List" — the form fields will be columns of this list, and a submission becomes a record in it right away.
• "What the form does" — "Adds a record" or "Changes a record". For changing — "Which record to change" (usually the variable set by a tap on a list record) and "Show the record values in the fields": the person sees what they are editing, not an empty form.
• "Form fields" — "Add a field" or "Fields for every column". A field has a "List column", "Label", "Placeholder", "Default value", "Helper text" and validation:
  • for text — "Required field", "Length: from and to", "Pattern (regular expression)";
  • for a number — "Value bounds";
  • for a date — "Date bounds" in the form 2026-01-01;
  • "Error text" — shown instead of the standard one.
• "Submit button" — "Button name", "Filling", "Width", "Color" and "Error text for a required field" (if empty — "Please fill in this field").
• "After submitting" — a variable for the id of the new record and "The record belongs to the user": "only own records" works by this tick, and a changing form edits only the user's own records.

The form is described step by step, with error texts and limits, on the App data page.

Exit#

The "Form "Button label"" exit fires after a successful submission. While there are errors, the form stays on the screen and highlights the fields.
