Hi
I'm trying to create a subform which sends some data to the database.
each row should contain a hidden field which contains the nuhash USER_TEAM Value.
How am I able to set the Input field hidden so that the rows contain automatically the value?
I thoud there is a input field class "hash_variable". (just a succesition)
If I'm on the wrong way, - how do I send hash_coockie values combined with the other fields to the database ?
Kind regards,
Michael

Hi Michael,
To populate a specific field in the subform with the user's team, use the JavaScript function nuUserTeam() in combination with the nuSetValue() function.
Let me know if you need an example.

Yes, that way I tryed it and it works in a normal form, but how can I use it in subform?
There I only found the way of custom code of this field (onclick, or so) bit it didn't work until now.
I tried a Input field (Text) and custom code: nuSetValue('tra_mandant', nuUserTeam());
But then nothing happens.

Every subform field is composed of three parts:
1.
Subform Object ID – e.g.,
mysubformId
2.
Row number – a three-digit, zero-padded index (e.g.,
000)
3.
Object (field) Id – e.g.,
tra_mandant
Combined, a full field ID might look like:
mysubformId000tra_mandant
To populate a field in the current subform row, add an
afterinsertrow event to the subform and call
within it.
Declare this function in the form's Custom Code field
Code: Select all
function subformAddUserTeam(event){
// retrieve the subform Object ID
const sfId = event.currentTarget.getAttribute('data-nu-prefix').slice(0, -3);
// ID of the object whose value needs to be set (change this if targeting a different field))
const objectId = "tra_mandant";
// Value to assign (current user's team)
const value = nuUserTeam();
// Get the current subform row index
rowIndex = nuCurrentRow();
// Construct the full object ID for the target field
const objId = `${sfId}${nuPad3(rowIndex)}${objectId}`;
// Set the field value
nuSetValue(objId, value);
}
