I want to understand if it is possible for values inputed in Form A, to be picked up in Form B (and used as conditionals to show/hide)
Essentially I am trying to setup a “follow up” form so that users can finish completing the fields they are missing on a new form, and conditionally hide the ones that have been already answered. Without getting into details, I need this to happen in a second form and not get them to resume the first one. The form B only holds the last 3 steps of form A.
I thought that just passing the feathery ID as a parameter in the new form would have been enough for this, but it does not seem to be working.
So for clarity this is the process:
1 - Form A “XXX1” has 10 questions. The last 3 questions are Fico, Address, File submission. https://form.feathery.io/to/XXX1/ is completed with all but the last 2 questions
2 - Form B “XXX2” has 3 questions (Fico, Address, File submission), but because the user already answered Fico in Forma A, the user should only sees Address and File submission. To this user I am passing: https://form.feathery.io/to/XXX2/?featID=12334-featheryID
I thought the answers were tied to the feathery ID, not to the specific form they were answered in. Is there some mapping or connecting I am missing?
Instead of requiring users to fill out a separate form to continue their submission, consider using email integration. You can set it up so that if a user doesn’t complete their form within a certain period (e.g., 1 day), they receive an email with a Feathery Edit Link in the body. When they click the link, they can resume the form right where they left off.
Thanks for the response, I already have something like this. However, it does not work for them, my users response rate by email is extremely low.
As I mentioned on the original post, there are reasons why I am setting this up in this way, and although even if this is unorthodox I want to give it a try. Would it be possible?
You can also send them the form1 link with the submission/userId appended. This way, all previously entered data will be present, allowing them to continue where they left off. For example, you can use the following link format:
https://form.feathery.io/to/XXX1?_id=<User Id>
Alternatively, you could link the fields from the first and second forms. That way, when the user accesses the second form, the values from form1 will already be populated. Just add the necessary logic to hide the other fields if they were already filled. You can read about Linked Fields here.
