Hyland OnBase - Response from previous form submission

The Hyland OnBase - Response from previous form submission Form Logic allows responses to questions from another Form submission to be retrieved.

Configuring a "Response from previous form submission" Form Logic

When configuring the Logic, the following settings are required:

  • Form - the Form which captures the response to be retrieved.

  • Question - the question which provides the response. This is limited to "simple" component types: text fields, text areas, hidden fields, radio buttons, dropdowns, checkboxes (response returned as a comma separated list), and date fields.

  • Web reference number - the Web reference number (Form submission reference number) of the form submission to retrieve the response from.

  • Only return results if the form submission was made by the currently signed in user - we recommend this be set to 'Yes' to prevent exposing data that the user should not see.

    If set to 'Yes' and the user was not signed in when submitting the previous response and/or is not signed in when completing the current form submission, the Logic will return an empty result.

    If setting this to 'No' and displaying the retrieved data back to user, we recommend using an alternative strategy to verify that the user is authorized to view the data, such as requesting known facts which can then be compared with the source data.
