Forms

TaliRXM

Hello,

Can a form be saved as a draft before submitting, so that can come back to it at a later time to continue?

If not, please forward this as a product enhancement request.

Thank you!

Hi @TaliRXM, I think you are asking if a current "live" form can be partially completed by a user and then saved -- unfortunately no, that's not natively possible. If it was mongo necessary, could create a zany solution using a partial form submission that triggers the creation of a custom link, which would simply bring the user back to the form with the already-populated fields auto-populated by the string.

Here's an article on how to create the links:

Hi @TaliRXM

I hope you're well and safe!

To add to Lucas's excellent advice/answer.

Here are two other options.

• Premium App, Dynamic View (they could see all their submissions)
• Automated Update Request sent on submission until they mark it complete

Would any of those options work/help?

I hope that helps!

Be safe, and have a fantastic weekend!

Hi Lucas,

That is exactly what I am asking.

Will submit a product enhancement request.

Thanks!

Thank you Andrée Starå !

Hope you are well & safe as well.

Not really, the request is simple, to allow Form to be saved as a draft and ability to come back and complete at a later time. Currently unless 'Submit', the work is lost.

I have added my vote to this 'Product Enhancement Request' this other Product Idea, here.
