As on the Atlassian community post (https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Confluence-questions/Keeping-two-ConfiForms-in-sync/qaq-p/2679409) we take the same structure as an example to show how to use the newly developed "Synchronize smart field references" ConfiForms IFTTT action
Available on DC, version 3.11 and on CLOUD
The problem
| Info |
|---|
We have two forms that need to update one another and stay in sync. For simplicity sake lets use this mock-example. A librarian has a form (form 1) that they use to update information on the library to include the books that the library has available. Form 1 - Libraries Form 2 - Books When a librarian is updating their library's record in the Library form they need to select all of the books that the library has available, and remove any selections that it no longer has available. They do this using the smart multi-checkbox field in the library form registration/edit. When the librarian saves that form we also need to pass the library name to the Books form for each book record, or remove it if the librarian has unselected the book. The books form/views is used to see what libraries a book is available in, and has many downstream views and filters separate from the library form. What macros/functions do we need to use to maintain this sync between the two forms? We also have a similar use case with a smart multi-row field. But we're assuming the solution for the above will tackle this. |
