Question

Accessing a previously-submitted form

Forms Administration

Updated December 12, 2017

asked on July 14, 2016

We have a situation where we'd like to have the ability to link back to a previously-submitted form. Looking at the list of instances that relate to our form, we can find a previously-submitted form, but we can't link to it directly.

Looking at the URL associated with this instance, it looks like there's an ID associated with the form instance. I wonder where this value might be in the Forms database? I'm hoping if i'm able to access this code (and all URL's are formatted the same way), I should be able to query the value and pull it in via a workflow (or something similar).

If anyone would have any ideas on how to accomplish this, we'd love to hear how this might be possible - thanks!

You can use the URL like http://{formsserver}/Forms/form/avsubmission?instanceId=undefined&submissionId={submissionid}&RemoveHead=true&clientHandlesRedirect=false&readonly=true to view the submitted form, the {submissionid} is what displayed in the history table:

The submission_id is in stored in cf_submissions table.

Is there a way to add login credentials so the user does not need to login to view the previous submission?

User need proper right to view the submission as the information on the form may be confidential. Only the user who submitted the form or who is process admin has right to view the submitted form.
