Designing a Resource Action Form

When you create a resource action, you can edit the form of the action by adding new fields to the form,

modifying the existing fields, deleting, or rearranging fields. You can also create new forms and form

pages, and drag and drop new fields to them.

Add a New Resource Action Form

When you edit the default generated form of a workflow you want to publish as a resource action, you can

add a new resource action form.

By adding a new resource action form, you define how the submitted action details page looks. If you do

not add a submitted action details form, the consumer sees what is defined in the action form.

Add a New Element to a Resource Action Form

with a new one.
