Workflow invoke a form, and wait for Lookup to complete before completing the form?

asked on June 27, 2019

I am currently running into an issue where I have Workflow invoking a submission of a form with Lookup in place.  The issue is that there is no delay for the lookup to complete, and when the form gets saved into the repository, it does not contain the lookup information.  Is there a way to set a delay within the invoked form, so that the lookup can complete?  Thanks.

 

Ideally this would be the best case scenario:

Workflow > Form > Lookup (Delay to Complete) > Save to Repository

Lookups will not work that way on a Form submitted by Workflow. When you submit a form with a workflow, it is posting the form with the provided content and does not mimic the behavior of a real user.

What you should do instead is do the database lookup from the workflow, and populate your lookup fields with the results when you invoke the form.
