This is the documentation for ConfiForms Server/Data Center app
However, this might also work for ConfiForms cloud and in most cases it does. But please see this page to understand the differences between server and cloud versions of the ConfiForms app.
Available action types in ConfiForms Field Definition Rules
Rules are the best way to add dynamics to your forms, make validation rules conditional or customize form UI behavior
Action type | |
---|---|
Apply CSS on a field | Applies CSS styles on a given field, based on the condition set |
Apply Filter on a field | You can apply specific filters on "select"-type fields. This is especially powerful, when your fields are backed by smart fields, web-service or database fields. Your filter is applied ON THE DATASET this field relies on. Which means, the filter is applied on the source dataset |

Run custom JavaScript | ConfiForms can execute a custom JavaScript function via ConfiForms Field Definition Rules, and your function can expect the following variables to be present
which means your function can have a signature like: function myfunction(formName, formId) { } See demo: Using ConfiForms Field Definition rules with JavaScript action to get and set field values |
Set expression | Same as set value, but you can set expression (Supported math operators, formulas and functions), which will be calculated for you |
Set form title | Changes form title |
Set value | Set's value to the fields. Please be aware, that internal value for the field is expected. See ConfiForms Field Types |
