UIPath Form Designer - anyone used it & is able to help me couple of questions?

Hi @memrevh,

Regarding point 1: You can add a logo by simply using the html element in the forms editor. Simply paste the image link and it will work.

The other answers were given by @loginerror and are correct. I see a limitation that there can be only one conditional at the moment for components, but I’m trying to figure out a workaround for this right now :slight_smile: (I’m thinking of using another variable and based on that make the choice)

Hi there, where do you put the Image path in the html?
I need it to be dinamic so i can put the path from outside.
In the end i want to put a image of a scanned recipe and on the side fields to input the values by hand

That sounds very similar with what we have in validation station. I recommend using IntelligentOCR package for that.

the recipe are all over the place, literally all over the world and because of that in several languages, OCR is not that needed this task, as is only 2 inputs for each recipe.

Could you share a file with how you put a image in the html Form Designer?

Hi @rjSampaio

Please see this example. I used the Advanced → HTML Element like that:

Does it work with local images?

It loads online pictures but not like this <img src="/images/1.jpg"> also, can i use the binding or another variable to input the path from outside of the Form Designer?

Hi all,

I’m trying to display a data table to user using Form designer activity. We are building this POC for attended robots. Any thoughts on this?

adding @loginerror

Thanks,
Ashok

Check if this can be used

No @rjSampaio . HTML control cannot be used for local forms. But you can use Content Component for local images.

Hi guys,

I created a form but not getting any output at output string variable. Please find the attached .xaml file. Please help me to resolve this issue.Main.xaml (82.5 KB)

How to use the input argument value to the HTML input box?

You should be able to access it via this syntax:

{{ data.yourVariableWithinForm }}

So a dynamic URL would look like so:

<img src= {{ data.yourVariableWithinForm }} / >

On how to pass the variable, you can use this way:

Hi,
I’m using Timer as my Form variable, TimeValue as workflow variable passed as value and passing like this, but not working. Please correct me if am wrong.

formCollection

Hi @Gnana_Soundari_J

It would seem that it does not work for HTML Elements. It does work for some other components though, such as Label/Header:

As to the usage, this is how it works with the Label/Header element:


Just in case someone else interested in how to make #dev:forms designer input arguments appear inside html element. What helped me is toggling “refresh on change” check box in the bottom of html element editor:

Hey @loginerror I am just doing POC for my client on uipath forms … where I am just using create form task and assigning for the user by keeping the logo and filepath,other text fields but logo and filepath is not reflecting showing unknown component in web …

Hi @Vijay_RPA - are you able to share your .xaml file so we can get better understanding of your issue? Thanks.

@paras.gera Looks like a form task issue. Can you take a look.

@Vijay_RPA
FilePath is not a valid component for Actions in Web. This is because filepath is specific to a machine, but the attended workflow (in which you use create form task and are waiting for it), can be resumed on some other machine too.

For logo, are you using HTML element and ticked Refresh On Change? And are you using storage buckets to store your logo?
