Question :

  • I want a way to allow people to suggest improvements to my blogposts.
  • My blogposts are available in JSON. Visitors should be able to pick a blogpost, and then provide a corrected version of the post.
  • For that they will pick a blogpost from a dropdown that is populated by the JSON.
  • When they pick a post, the field with the corrected content is automatically filled with the corresponding text.
  • They can edit the text and submit.
  • In the overview you want to be able to see both the original (current) text and the proposed text.

Approach


  • Set up webservice :
    • Add the URL to the global allowlist.
    • In confiforms administration : Create a Webservice (dummyjson.com.posts) connection to the JSON : https://dummyjson.com/posts
    • test the connection
  • Create a form
    • create a field "postid" definition of type : webservice dropdown
    • create a textarea field "body"
  • Add a confiform rule to the form
    • Track the field "postid", and choose "set value" as action. body=[entry.postid.body]
  • Add a tableview showing both the stored entry (body) as the referenced body (postid.body)
