The URL back to a submitted form? well, that's simple. It's the following, but with your own unique values of course:

 

 

http://[SERVERNAME]/Forms/Form/Submission/History/[InstanceID]/[SubmissionID]/Result

 

You cannot currently send out a copy of the form  inside an email service task, you can however save the form and it's related documents from the Forms Process, to the repository and have Workflow send out the email. With Forms 9.2, you even can have it initiate the workflow and wait for it to complete before moving to the end or next step of the Forms Process.

I keep getting a 404 error page... I even tried swapping [InstanceID] and [SubmissionID].  Am I missing something?  I should probably mention I'm running Lf Forms 9.2.

Interesting. Yea, sorry, I told you the old method for Forms 9.1. I do not see how to do it in Forms 9.2 though. 

 

It would appear they have removed the ability, at least how it was previously, to view submissions via a direct URL. In Forms 9.1, you could look at the results page and click on a submission and the URL in the navigation bar would be in the format I indicated above. In Forms 9.2, they have actually loaded the submissions inside the results page, making it not a clear indication in the navigation bar what the direct URL is.

 

When inspecting that element in a browser, it appears that the links to submissions are actually not there. They are calling functions running server side to be delivered the submission. This is quite different to how it was before. 

 

Hopefully a Laserfiche employee will be able to chime in

Hi Abby,

We found that only Process Admin can view form using the syntax above.

Is there a different syntax for users with the Access Rights of Submitter?

For user who submit the form, they can click on the same task link in the email notification to view the submission.

Does that mean that only the form submitter and Process Admins have the capability of viewing submitted forms?  Is there a way to configure access for Groups?  For example, a group called Form Reviewers, who do not necessarily submit the forms.

Hi there,

This Reviewers group is for the particular User Task? or It's for the entire process?

It'll be really helpful if you can tell me the business process you are trying to implement. What's the business process about? What's the control point? What's the person involved? Who should see what at which step?

We're using Forms Business Process to ultimately obtain approvals on submitted forms.  At the end of this process there's an email that shoots off to another system.

Within the body of that email, I'd like to provide a link bank to completed form for Submitters.

I cannot view a submission using that URL syntax Abby, even though I AM the process admin.  Is there another route for Forms version 10.1?  I just get the 'Laserfiche Forms has encountered a problem' message.  I am trying to add a link on another form section that the user can click to see the original submission for the process.  This is a Participant user so he cannot use the processes/metrics/instances route to view previous submissions.
