A space is a web site that organizes and displays applications, forms, workflows, tasks, etc. A space has a tab for each application, and each tab has a drop-down list of the deployed forms/flows in that application. Forms/flows with a visibility of public in tenant or private appear when the user logs into . When you click on a form or flow name, the space opens the form in the page. A space also has a home panel and two optional panels at the left and at the bottom of its page. You can edit the content of any of these panels; you can also choose not to include the optional panels. You can apply a style to a space as you do to forms/flows. The selected style will be propagated to forms, flows and the Task List.


Spaces can be used to simplify accessing forms/flows/Task List from your iPhone or iPad. You can add thumbnail icons to your forms and flows and the space will display on mobile devices as shown below.

You may also notice that Share links for the Important items now show parenthesis instead of curly braces. You will see the parentheses in any newly created space. Tomcat 8.5 doesn't allow curly braces in URLs since they are not valid URL chars and deemed a security vulnerability. Live Forms frevvo currently supports parenthesis as well as curly braces, however, support for curly braces {} will be dropped in a future releases . Use parenthesis () moving forward.

...

Let's say you  created a Space or added a form/flow to your space and now you must find that form or flow to make changes to it. The Share URL for a form/flow can be used to determine the Live Forms frevvo designer account where a form/flow is located.

...

You may notice a slight difference when logging into a Space. When you access your space with the Share URL, then click the Login tab, the whole screen becomes the login screen. Enter your credentials to view your space.

Space Content

Your space contains links for your users to easily access any Spaces are always ‘public’ which means anyone with the link can access them. However, any forms or flows in the space that require authentication cannot be accessed until the user logs in. If you would prefer that users log in before accessing a space you can construct a share URL that used the target-uri query parameter to accomplish this. For example:

Code Block
Cloud: https://app.frevvo.com:443/frevvo/web/login?target-uri=<spaceurl>
In House: https://<your server host>:<port>/<frevvo home>/web/login?target-uri=<spaceurl>

Space Content

Your space contains links for your users to easily access any forms and flows your designers created in your tenant. Your space also automatically contains the following:

  • Task List
  • My Account
  • Shared Items
  • Home
  • Operational Reports - Active Processes, Submission Failures, Recent Submissions, Productivity. These Reports are only accessible to the tenant admin and users with the role frevvo.Reports. Refer to Operational Reports in a Live Forms frevvo Space for information about the links to these reports and spaces.
  • Login/Logout - You can hide this tab if you choose.


 

Info

Shared Items (Submissions View or Edit), Home, My Account, and Report links are automatically added under the Important Items tab along with the Task List and Login/Logout when your space is created. Existing spaces must be manually edited as described below to add these items.

 


To manually add these and other useful features to your space, follow the instructions described in detail below.

...

You can add the URL to an anonymous signup form for your tenant. Users can create a user account in your tenant using this published registration URL. The  designer does not have to create the form, the URL shown below accesses the Add User Anonymous Register form included with . When this form is submitted, the user receives an activation email which enables the account.  

You must check Anonymous Users in your tenant to take advantage of this feature. Also, there is an invisible control on this form which requires the tenant name. The form will not submit if this field is left blank. Append the  _data parameter to initialize the control with your tenant name: 

...

Code Block
* Important Items
** Task List|/frevvo/web/tn/mycompany/subject/(subject.id)/tasks?embed=true
** My Account|/frevvo/web/tn/mycompany/subject/(subject.id)/profile?embed=true&edit=true
** Shared Items|/frevvo/web/tn/mycompany/subject/(subject.id)/shared?embed=true&hidenav=true
** Home|/frevvo/web/tn/mycompany/u/e5a0e839-1026-4bcf-92a0-5c8e4db9685e/space/test/home?embed=true
** Active Flows for Tenant|Submission Errors|Resent Submission Activity|Workflow Bottleneck Analysis|<FREVVO_REPORTS>|<FREVVO_REPORTS>

      5.If you want the Operational Reports to display under a customized tab instead of under the Important Items tab, add the name of the Report tab preceded by a single asterisk followed by the pipe symbol followed by the <FREVVO_REPORTS> keyword.

...

You do not have to use Spaces to access your mobile forms but it is a convenient way to do so. Simply bookmark the space URL on your mobile device to access it. You can add icons to your forms and flows which will display on mobile devices when you access the space. Spaces can be a valuable tool for testing your forms/flow on the iPhone and iPad. 

Info

Selecting the Excel export or Download to CSV features the when viewing submissions from the Shared Items tab (inside or outside of a space) on an IOS device (iPad,iPhone), may require the installation of an application to edit and save .xls files. This requirement is browser specific.

...

Of course, you can still embed your forms and flows in your own internet.
