    I was hoping for a tutorials or documentation for the following work flow:
    • User fills in a DF form
    • User forwarded to a page telling them to expect a confirmation email
    • Email with details sent to given address - also contains a link with an unique confirmation code in the query string
    • User clicks the link and returns to site
    • User is then automatically "confirmed" and a thank you message is displayed
    • Admin receives email with all details from the original form submission.
    From reading the features of DF, I believe this is possible.  Thanks in advance.

    Hello Lance,

    This workflow is possible with Dynamic Forms.

    The most difficult part will be getting the Dynamic Form to know what to do when receiving the querystring parameter from the email.

    What I would suggest doing is:

    * Add a hidden question to your form that retrieves it's value from a querystring value.
    * Create a Question Event that Submits the form if the hidden field DOES NOT = '' --> Empty


    Let me know if this makes sense or if you have any questions.

    Thanks,

    Ryan

    So if the variable (with any value) is in the query string, it will trigger the event.

    But, how do I get the rest of the values out of the DB to send to the admins?

    Hello Lance,

    You would need to provide a unique ID in your Querystring from the email as well as the querystring name/value pair that will submit the form.

    Make sure that the UniqueID is being retrieved by a hidden field and that this field has the lowest sort order on your form. The querystring parameter that will conditionally submit the form(using a Question Event) needs to have the highest sort order on the form(different hidden field).

    Why and what's with the sort orders?

    Well you want to give the Dynamic Form a chance to Initial SQL bind data from a table to prefill your form with the values specific to the UniqueID you passed in. SQL Binding is a feature under Module Configuration -> Advanced Coding Options -> Initial SQL Rendering/Bind

    Then if the parameter value that conditionally submits the form passes the condition and submits the form, you will now have access to all of the values for that record and can provide these in the Admin email that you want to configure.

    Let me know if this makes sense or if you have any questions.

    Thanks,

    Ryan

    I think I follow ... I will give it a try and see how far I get.

    I'm running version 4.10.0 - is that the latest?  Seem a little buggy and many functions aren't acting as advertised.

    I have pieced together what I believe are the right steps for the initial SQL bind but it is failing silently (fields remain empty).  Is there a way to debug the SQL results?

    SELECT 
     [FirstNa],
     [LastNa],
     [Email]
    FROM
     dbo.DynamicForms_CustomTable_3978
    WHERE
     UniqueCompletionID = "$(UniqueCompletionID)"

    I can get the UniqueCompletionID to show in a text field from the query string and when I test the SQL on the server it returns a single row.

    I used the SQL tools in the SQL event to generate all the tables and actions so all the column headings and shortnames are aligned.

    Hello Lance,

    You must use "$(DSParam1)", "$(DSParam2)", or "$(DSParam3)" in your Initial SQL Bind.

    So you need to add a Hidden field on your form that will Retrieve the unique value either from a Querystring value, Cookie value, or Session value, these are all features under Advanced Question Options.

    *** NOTE: Initial SQL Bind can only use the token names mentioned above.

    So here's the modified SQL Bind query once you have the hidden field with the ShortFieldName of "DSParam1", "DSParam2" or "DSParam3":

    SELECT
    [FirstNa],
    [LastNa],
    [Email]
    FROM
    dbo.DynamicForms_CustomTable_3978
    WHERE
    UniqueCompletionID = '$(DSParam1)'

    Let me know if you have any questions.

    Thanks,

    Ryan

    What you can do to debug your SQL that's being executed for the initial SQL bind, is add "&debug=True" or "?debug=True" to the URL of the page and refresh the page. This technique will allow you to keep all Querystring parameters in the URL and place the form in Debug mode.

    Then you can copy the SQL Statement that is being attempted, and if it seems that it's not working appropriately, 9 times out of 10 it's a SQL Syntax Error.

    In the case that an error is occurring within your SQL copy the debug text that shows your SQL statement and go to Host -> SQL. Then paste the debug text(It will be an actual SQL Statment), check the "Run as Script" and click "Execute".

    You should get some details as to why the query is failing.

    Let me know if you have any questions.

    Thanks,

    Ryan
