Is there a way for a the link in a request for update to stay active once the person has submitted?

Samantha Quinn · 02/28/20

We need a way for folks to be able to continuously updated via the request for update link once they've submitted an update. Alternatively, is there a way for folks to save and go back to the request for update?

I've asked for something similar to this... we would like to give our users a single link whereby they can go whenever they want and provide the latest update via the nice clean update request form view without a new formal update request being sent. But unfortunately, that function does not exist.

Hi,

@Ramsay Zaki

Unfortunately, it's not possible at the moment to have an Update Request remain active, but it's an excellent idea!

Please submit an Enhancement Request when you have a moment

As a possible workaround, you could either have a form (can be pre-filled) that they would submit, and the latest values would be shown through formulas.

Another solution that could be perfect for this use-case is the premium add-on, Dynamic View. Is that an option?

Would any of those options work/help?

I hope that helps!

Have a fantastic weekend!
