Forms

Forms is a new feature that allows organizations to create custom forms for use in workflows. Forms are used to ingest user data into the data flow of a workflow and then use that data in the actions or activities of the workflow.

This new Forms feature enables users to:

  • Create new custom forms using an intuitive builder to configure sections and fields. The fields include single and multiple line text, date, toggle, and a multiple select dropdown. The multiple select dropdown displays static values, predefined values from IdentityNow, or values from a custom search.
  • Create dynamic forms by configuring conditional logic rules for how sections and fields are displayed to the end user.
  • Define form inputs that work together with conditions to map data from workflow data flows into the form using the Form Action.
  • Administrators can manage and create new forms, as well as view which workflows are using their forms from the Forms page.

The Forms feature works with Workflows to enable users to:

  • Assign a selected form to a recipient as a step in a workflow using the Form Action. The workflow sends an email notification to the recipient with a link to the assigned form and the workflow is suspended while waiting for the form to be submitted.
  • Initiate a workflow when a form is submitted using the Form Submitted Trigger. The trigger can be configured to initiate a workflow when a form is submitted or when a form is submitted with specific attribute values. Using JSON operations, you can configure the workflow to trigger on more than one form, more than one element, or more than one value for a multi-select field.

Refer to the Forms documentation for more information.
