Dashboard to list all available Forms

I would like to create a Dashboard to list all the available forms available.

I see there are options to show external JSP pages, external sites, etc.

What would be the correct option and format to present a G&L Form in a dashboard?

Additionally and I am asking again, if I had a user token in the URL already, what is the correct format to put in the address bar, example, I can get this to work sometimes: https://server/aveksa/externalform?formName=FormExample&token=####################…

Thank you

Shlomo

Correct Answer

You can do this with Out of the box solution and will not require JSP or XML.

Create a request button with Action: Select a form from the list and include the forms that you would like your users to access. You can continue to use this as button or if you like to use this in the dashboard, you can create a dashboard that points to a custom URL of the button. You will achieve something like this.

Hello

This is an on going request from my management.

Minimize the clicks to get to a form.

Currently: https://server (ADFS signon) > Manage Access > correct button > Find the form

Best case: A user asks for access > user receives a link > https://server/....formname

Second case: https://server > dashboard

User needs access > https://server > dashboard > search (windows+f ?) for form

Hi Shlomo,

I see the useßcase here.

How many forms do you have in total?

Are all these forms unique in the way they interact and what info the request?

What I am aiming at is if it would be possible to use a few (if not simply one) forms with global and resource specific submission variables.

Hi Frank Schubert

Thank you for your response, I just saw this.

All the forms are global.

I am thinking about multiple options:
A dashboard to call JSP or XML?

it will hard link the URL to the form

Thoughts?
