Forms

When you design workflows, you create forms to gather input from users or show them information. You use forms in user tasks and start forms to request a user to perform a manual action for a workflow to progress.

The Workflow Designer uses a JSON-based form definition structure as an output format. The form editor replaces the form properties previously used in the Flowable Eclipse Designer.

For an overview of all forms in a workspace, go to the Models page and filter the view to show only forms instead of all models.

Page overview

The landing page shows a list of the existing forms.

From the forms view you can:

  • See all the forms associated with a workspace.
  • Go to a form editor by selecting one of the existing forms.
  • Search by name and tag.
  • Change the pagination and sorting.
  • Change the display of forms to either a list or tiles.

For more details refer to the Models section.
