Dependent forms

Dependent forms are forms which you can add to a root form to create a form group for extension points which have UI.

The extension points which have UI are:

• Custom integration settings tabs.

• Main menu items.

• Open pop-up workload actions.

To create a dependent form

Note

You must already have a root form or a form group to create a dependent form.

1. [If required] Open the custom integration settings tabs, main menu item or open pop-up workload action, then click UI builder.

2. Click in the Form group area.

   

3. [Optional] Configure the new dependent form.

   1. [Optional] To rename the dependent form, enter the new name in the Form name field.

      This will appear as the window title, if the form is displayed as a pop-up, or as the panel title, if the form is displayed as a sidebar.

   2. Select the Width property from the dropdown.

      • Standard

      • Wide

        The display width is increased. The size depends on how form is displayed:

        • Pop-up: 1136px

        • Sidebar panel: 1024px

   3. [Optional] Specify a data initializer callback.

   4. [Optional] Add input parameters.

   5. [Optional] Set up footer buttons.

4. [Optional] Build the form.

   You can do this later, if you prefer.

5. Click Done.

   Important

   Clicking Done does not save your work.

6. Click Save changes to save your new dependent form.

2. Click the dependent form tab in the Form group area.
