URL Parameters

A Field can be initialised by adding a parameter to the URL when navigating to a Form. The name of the parameter in the URL must match the name of the Field and the value must be the correct type and format for the Field.

For example, https://www.mydomain.com/myForm.eb?myField=5 will initialise the Field named myField to 5. 

Before a Field can be initialised like this however it's URL Parameter property must be enabled.

Fields initialised via the Verj.io JavaScript API's form.callForm() or form.gotoForm() functions must also have their URL Parameter property enabled.

When running a Form from the Verj.io Studio, a dialog will be displayed to enter values for any URL Parameter Fields in the Form:
