Front-End Event

Introduction

Feature(s)

Front-End Event is a new way to obtain data that allows retrieving external APIs during data submission or form completion. This enables a range of operations, including data retrieval, validation, analysis, and event triggering.

The Front-End Event feature can be used for free in all plans because you do not need to depend on Jodoo APIs. The configuration of front-end events can be completed without programming. If a company has development capabilities, it can also create its own API to achieve the desired data interaction.

Application Scenario(s)

The feature applies to data processing, validation, acquisition, and other custom scenarios.

For example, VAT invoice recognition, bank card recognition, ID card recognition, custom template recognition, face & ID comparison, logistics information inquiry, and so on.

Preview

You can use the front-end event to add a certain number of rows to a subform automatically.

Setting Procedure

Where to Set

Go to Design > Form Properties > Front-End Event, and click Settings.

Note:
A maximum of 20 front-end events can be set.

What to Set

In Front-End Event, you can set Event Name, Event Description (Optional), Trigger, and Triggered Action.

Event Name: Required. It refers to the name of a front-end event.
Event Description: Optional. It refers to the description of a front-end event.
Trigger: It refers to the condition that triggers a front-end event. Select a field from the drop-down list of Trigger. When you manually modify the value of the field, an action will be triggered.
Triggered Action: It means that when an action is triggered, the system will retrieve an interface for the front-end event to complete the action.
