Custom control (External)

The form field allows you to embed an external application on the Modern form. By using the JS API in the control you can manage the behavior of the whole form. To ensure correct operation, the application run by the control must use communication protocol corresponding to the protocol of the form where it is embedded (https by default). The form field is available only for the processes run on the Modern form.

User control configuration depends on the code of the plugin – it is defined entirely by the plugin creator.

The basic configuration is presented in the General form field configuration.

To access additional configuration options, click the Advanced configuration button available in the bottom, right corner of the form field configuration window.
