As forms are used, the values entered into form fields are cached on the Server until the form is submitted or until the user's session times out.. Each time you navigate a browser to a form URL, for example the URL you can copy/paste into a browser from the Email/Web Page share choice, you will see a blank form.

Also the form fields may contain values from your back-end systems if you used the Advanced Document URI feature or from a business rule triggered by either the form.load or form.activate conditions. If you close your browser window/tab and again open the form via the share URL, you will again get a blank form.Another approach for minor changes is to make a copy of the form, make your changes in the copy, then migrate the changes to the original form. This minimizes the time period during which users may experience error conditions. |
