12.2. Form Behavior

In the Form Behavior section of this module, users can create custom behaviors for their application’s forms. By defining these behaviors, users can control how forms are displayed in the web application, how data is collected, and how responses are handled.

*Form behaviors are rules that determine how forms behave and operate in the web application. By customizing form behaviors, users can create forms that are optimized to meet their specific requirements.

To manage forms in the application, take the following steps:

1. From the Application Tree, navigate to Forms > Form Behavior (double-click to open). It will display the Form Behavior tab and expand the menu bar to show additional options.
   

*In this tab, users can access a list of all defined form behaviors for the application. For guidance on how to manipulate the data presented in this tab, click here.

     • To use this function, first select a form behavior from the list.
   • Refresh : This button allows users to refresh the Form Behavior tab.
