Modifying the Render Service and Submit Service

You can modify existing settings on both the Render Service or Submit Service to change how the preprocessing and post-processing works when available. You can also modify the service that is used by the Render Service and Submit Service.

The Render Service performs preprocessing to the supplied form before it is displayed to a user. The Submit Service performs post-processing, which retrieves and handles the form after a user is finished with it. Depending on the variable type, a default Render Service or Submit Service may be provided. The following table summarizes the provided Render Service and Submit Service for each data type.

Data type

Default Render Service operation

Default Submit Service operation

xfaForm

Invoke operation from the Default Render service

No default operation configured

Form

readResourceContent operation from the Repository service

No default operation configured

Document Form

Invoke operation from the Default Render service

No default operation configured

Based on the data type you use, you can modify the input data as necessary to configure the default Render Service.

You can modify the Render and Submit Service to use custom processes that you create. If you define your own custom processes for the xfaForm, Form, or Document Form type to use, you must specify an output of type document.

To display HTML forms or form guides to a user, custom processes must be created for both the Render Service and the Submit Service.

  1. In the Variables view, double-click the name of the variable.
  2. In the Variable dialog box, click Advanced Settings.
  3. On the Render Service tab, modify Service Input and Service Output fields as necessary and click OK.
  4. In the Variable dialog box, click OK to save your changes.

To use a custom process for the Render Service or Submit Service:

  1. In the Variables view, double-click the name of the variable.
  2. In the Variable dialog box, click Advanced Settings.
  3. To change the service used for Render Service or Submit Service, click the appropriate tab, and then click Browse.
  4. In the Select Operation dialog box, locate the operation you want by selecting the appropriate process category and service, and then click OK.

    Note:   Your custom process must be activated to be visible in the Select Operation dialog box.
