Passing Form Fields through REST API

Completed

January 19, 2021 15:51

Hello,

I have an app that starts with a form, and passes the values from the form to a Microsoft Word Activity to create a SharePoint document.

I'm using a C# Web Client to initiate the REST API call to my AgilePoint Server but when I pass the formField values, they are not passed on the corresponding form.

This is the structure of my request for the formFilelds:

agilePoint.Attributes = new List<Attributes>
{
new Attributes {Name = "/pd:AP/pd:formFields/pd:Sponsor", Value = model.SponsorName},
new Attributes {Name = "/pd:AP/pd:formFields/pd:Protocol", Value = $"{model.ProtocolID}" },
new Attributes {Name = "/pd:AP/pd:formFields/pd:ContractID", Value = $"{model.Id}"}
};

Is there something I'm not doing right?

Have you tried using the variable names with dollar sign and brackets like this:
```
{Name = "${/pd:AP/pd:formFields/pd:Sponsor}", Value = model.SponsorName}
```

Hi Loren,

The previous approach worked. I was passing the wrong value to the WorkObjectId field in the JSON object.

I did try passing a list of data to a subform using the API, and saw that only one of the items in the list showed up in the formFields subform property.

Is there a way to pass the data as a string and split them back on the agilepoint process?

foreach (var timeline in model.ContractParts)
{
timelines.Add(new Attributes { Name = $"/pd:AP/pd:formFields/pd:TimelineSubform_SubForm/pd:TimelineSubform/pd:{nameof(timeline.PartName)}Subform", Value = timeline.PartName });
timelines.Add(new Attributes { Name = $"/pd:AP/pd:formFields/pd:TimelineSubform_SubForm/pd:TimelineSubform/pd:{nameof(timeline.FirstSiteInitiateDate)}Subform", Value = timeline.FirstSiteInitiateDate?.ToShortDateString() });
timelines.Add(new Attributes { Name = $"/pd:AP/pd:formFields/pd:TimelineSubform_SubForm/pd:TimelineSubform/pd:{nameof(timeline.FirstSubjectFirstVisit)}Subform", Value = timeline.FirstSubjectFirstVisit?.ToShortDateString() });
timelines.Add(new Attributes { Name = $"/pd:AP/pd:formFields/pd:TimelineSubform_SubForm/pd:TimelineSubform/pd:{nameof(timeline.LastSubjectLastVisit)}Subform", Value = timeline.LastSubjectLastVisit?.ToShortDateString()});
}

agilePoint.Attributes = new List<Attributes>
{
new Attributes {Name = "/pd:AP/pd:formFields/pd:ContractSponsor", Value = model.SponsorName},
new Attributes {Name = "/pd:AP/pd:formFields/pd:ContractProtocol", Value = $"{model.ProtocolID}" },
new Attributes {Name = "/pd:AP/pd:formFields/pd:ActiveContractID", Value = $"{model.Id}"},
new Attributes {Name = "/pd:AP/pd:formFields/pd:ProposalDate", Value = $"{DateTime.Now.ToShortDateString()}"},
new Attributes {Name = "/pd:AP/pd:formFields/pd:ProtocolVersion", Value = $"{model.ContractVersion}"},
new Attributes {Name = "/pd:AP/pd:formFields/pd:ProtocolPhase", Value = $"{model.Phase}"},
new Attributes {Name = "/pd:AP/pd:formFields/pd:ExtraPercentage", Value = $"{model.ExtraSupplyPercentage}"},
};

agilePoint.Attributes.AddRange(timelines);
