Create ConfiForms Entry

/rest/confiforms/1.0/create/{pageId}/{formName}

POST

POST with  multipart/form-data

(from version 2.27)

Creates ConfiForms entry in the form

You will need to POST the following JSON structure to this REST API endpoint

Code Block
{
  "fields": {
    "mytextfield":"field value",
    "datefield1": "2020-04-25",
    "ready": true,
    "mydropdown": 2
  }
}

Where each property name in the "fields" JSON object matches the field name in your ConfiForms Form, 

Values are expected to be in the internal format

Values for Date/DateTime could be given in the same format as your Confluence uses or as timestamp

  • skipIFTTTExecute - true/false, to skip IFTTT executions (if there are any that should be executed onCreated event, you can switch them off)

---

You can also POST a request with multipart/form-data. This comes handy when you want to upload attachments together with record creation.

Please note that the parameter names must match the field names you have  defined in your ConfiForms form

  • _debug - could give you statistics on IFTTTs being executed and the invocation log 

Update ConfiForms Entry

/rest/confiforms/1.0/update/{pageId}/{formName}/{id}

POST

POST with  multipart/form-data

(from version 2.27)

Updates existing ConfiForms entry in the form (via {id} parameter)

Same as for create method, but with given UUID for the entry to perform an update

  • skipIFTTTExecute - true/false, to skip IFTTT executions (if there are any that should be executed onModified event, you can switch them off)
  • _skipIfParamIsEmpty - true/false (false by default). Setting this parameter with value "true" to your request helps to bypass setting all the fields - useful when you have field definitions with validations and you dont want to set / reset those with your REST API call (and want ConfiForms to lookup existing values)

Validate ConfiForms Entry

/rest/confiforms/1.0/validate/{pageId}/{formName}/{id}

POST with  multipart/form-data

Same JSON structure shall be given as with a "create" method

Status

  • lazy - true/false, let's you request form definition with or without values for external fields (smart fields, db fields, web-services backed fields). Default is false, meaning that the options (values) are NOT loaded
  • _debug - true/false, allows you top get statistics on field initialization times to understand what are the slowest and problematic

  • flatten - true/false - you can flatten multi-value fields (This will result in MULTIPLE rows returned!)
  • fields - used to decorate the returned values with Virtual functions. Use "," to separate field decoration instructions.
  • limitFields - comma separated list of field names to return in the response (helps to reduce the amount of data travelling between your service and ConfiForms). Please be aware that "metadata" fields are always returned - see 
  • append - you can set this as "true", in your query parameters which instructs the parameter "fields" to add the transformed (decorated) fields into the record. This allows you to have multiple representations of the field in the output
