Creating Forms from Table Fields

UI Builder
1

Newbie question, but can I insert input fields directly from an existing table? I’ve watched the videos on data binding, but it’s fairly tedious considering how long our client’s form is.

Hi @Bekah_Campbell

you can use Repeater to render fields dynamically:

  1. create a container with enabled option “repeater”
  2. assign a list of your columns/fields
  3. prepare a UI for rendering an input dynamically

Thank you, Vlad. How do I assign a list to my table column/fields?

take a look at the doc

Thank you. So this has to be set up for each record? If 100 users complete the form and log back in to make changes, we need to have 100 setup for each field?

you can have another Repeater for users as well
