change forms instance fields values

asked on September 27, 2022

how can i update values in a forms instance?

This is the case, a .txt file enters LF from which the content is read and values are obtained, for example, the value EVENT, ID and NAME with these values is validated if the value of EVENT is 1 then we trigger a process in Forms and a form is generated with the values obtained from the .txt file, but if the EVENT value is 2 then the NAME in the previously created form has to be updated with the EVENT 1 based on the ID value.

I can't find actions, tasks or something in Forms or Workflow that allows me to perform this functionality, please help

What version of Forms are you using? If you are using Forms 11, you will be able to change field values for in progress instance from the Monitor page by click the Edit button.

Sorry, maybe I don't explain myself well, what I need is to generate the functionality so that the values of a previously created instance are automatically updated with new values in its fields, I don't need to update values manually

Sorry, I cannot think out a out of box solution for your problem. A possible way is updating the data in the Forms database directly with a workflow but we don't recommend you to do so as it may cause unexpected data mismatch.
