Common Form Connector Settings

Most of the connectors are different depending on what systems they connect to and the functionality they provide.

In this article:


Most connectors also feature some common options.

Add a Data Template (Customise Output)

This option allows you to add a customized Word/Excel file for when data output is required to be in a specific layout.

For example, a layout based on existing paper-based forms that you may currently use.

Upload a data template to output a file from this Connector. 

You can use a Microsoft Word (.DOCX) or Excel (.XLSX) file as the template for PDF output. 

For Word or Excel outputs, provide a template of a matching file type. 

Your template must be a plain text (.TXT) file for all other output types. 

Add a Run Condition (Conditional Trigger)

This option allows you to control when a connector runs in the event that a Form entry has a given value.

For example, you may have an Audit Form, which has a risk rating question with options like “Low”, “Medium”, and “High”.

If the user answers the risk rating as “High”, you want an email sent to a supervisor for follow-up and action.

An example formula: {{riskRating}} = ‘High’

Add a formula that calculates whether or not this Connector should be run when a form entry is submitted.

Use the hammer icon to launch the Formula Builder and build a formula with a true/false result.

To learn more, see Creating a Formula in the documentation.
