Hi vikas,

I am not sure if there is anything specific to Hybris here, but in general
with Orbeon Forms, this would typically be done through the persistence API
(see link below). You'll let me know if this helps.

Hello Alex,
I have one specific query related to my use-case. It goes like this:

We have incorporated Orbeon forms in our current solution and created some
forms using the Form Builder and saved/published them, those work absolutely
fine.

The main question is: Suppose we want to create some new forms, but the main
highlight is *we don't want to create those forms initially through form
builder*. We want to create them using some API or any other method (if they
exist) initially. We have some metadata about these forms that we can give
to your API (information like how many fields the form have, what are their
labels, what type of field is it). After creating these forms from this said
API, we want to treat these forms the way we treat the forms that were
originally created from Form Builder, i.e ., we want to save them in the
same DB, we want the flexibility to edit the from Form Builder from their
on, etc.

Is this kind of use case possible:
if yes, we API is exposed? What is the limitations of this API?


Hope you have understand my use case, waiting for your reply

Thanks & Regards

Hi Vikas,

Here, we can only help you with Orbeon Forms. And this not because we don't
want to help with yForms, but because the yForms integration is done and
maintained by SAP Hybris, and we don't know enough about it to help ;). This
being said, most of what can be said about Orbeon Forms also applies to
yForms, but I'm sure there are exceptions. If you think you're in one of
those cases, I'd recommend you check this with the relevant person at SAP
(for instance, if you're a customer, through your support channel). Does
that make sense?

Hi Naman,

The way things are, you're looking at creating an XML document, a "form
definition", in the format produced by Form Builder, and then submitting
this document through the "publish API" (see link below). This document
would contain the description of the fields, how they should be laid out,
how they should be validated, etc. You'll let me know if this would work for
you.

Hi Naman, did you get to look into the publishing API? If so, did it do what
you were looking for?
