Introduce front-end event and introduce how to set it.

Updated over 2 months ago

What is the Front-End Event?

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 API to achieve the desired data interaction.


What Does It Look Like?

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


How to Set the Front-End Event?

Step 1 Entering the Setting Page

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

Note:

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

Step 2 Configuring the Settings

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.

For details, see Front-End Event in Open Platform.


When to Use the Front-End Event?

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.
