I’m trying to create a list with a previous selection form.
The idea is to create a modalform to give the user the chance of selecting some options and, after the user submit, show a grid with the list information requested.
I was reading the documentation and I supose that the best way to do it is to create a button element inside the modalform and call the grid when the user clicks on it. Is it the right way? If it is correct, could you give me a json definition example for this kind of buttons?
Thanks
Hi David,
If I understand it correctly, you want a form where a user can enter some fields, and send this to an endpoint, so you can process the info, and sends the result as a grid?
I will setup a sample for you in the demo application.
Best regards,
Chris.
Hi David,
Due to problems with the documentation system I use on the site, I will post the info here.
You can add a button on a form with the following json. This is the code for the button In the Customers section of the demo version, on tab page 2. Administration. At the bottom there is a button 'Modal popup'. This will send a request to an endpoint, and shows a form where selections can be entered.
If the form that is opened and it contains only the ok and cancel button, it will send the content of the filled form with the PUT method to another endpoint. There you can process the data, and return the result in a grid, form, pdf or wathever you want.
Hope this helps.
Chris
