Also, I don't know how to format the list of submissions, maybe this is something that could be added?

Hey Steven,

Formatting is done through the Export Manager. You can build whatever export types you want, customizing the formatting rules there. Most of the time you'll just specify HTML, but it supports any character-based output (XML, CSV, etc).

All you need to do is create the new export type, then pass that value to the function.

Hope this helps!

From martin_undefined, discussed in this thread:

Add option to store fields values between multiple submissions, so that users don't have to re-enter the same form fields again and again.

Here's an idea that I've been playing around with on my own w/ FormTools: automated form generation.

The concept: multi-user database (<100 users), each has access to a certain form/series of pre-designed forms (based on what package they ordered). For instance: loan pre-approval form. Each user has access to their own form+submission data, but not other users', yet it's stored in a central server.

The ability to auto-add the form + set up database fields + auto-import a pre-made email template would be swell.

Did that make sense..? Do-able?

Yes and yes! And yes, automated form generation is something I've had on my list since starting Form Tools 2. But I'll be honest, nothing is coming soon. Far, far too much other work to do first.

Thanks for the post though!

It would be real nice to have an API function to remove submissions from the database by submission ID. I periodically download the submissions to a local CRM and would like to remove them from the formtools database.

APIs are required to connect apps in order for them to perform a pre-defined function involving data sharing and pre-defined processes. If you use Instagram, you've almost certainly used Instagram Post Templates. Over 48 Instagram Post Templates may be found at https://masterbundles.com/templates/soci...gram/post/. They serve as a bridge between developers and the different programs that people and organizations use on a regular basis, allowing them to create new programmatic interactions.

From this platform, many users can get good knowledge. it is really nice platform. Everything is related to this because all developing sources attach to each other for their needs. In the same way, education is related to development. All of the technologies are based on education. it is true that good knowledge makes a good world. So I want to draw your attention to a very nice service that provides 30k online services at a time. To clarify doubt you can go on the website of https://exer6.org/ tn I am sure this will complete your all word professionally.
