Dynamic document printing

Many times we need to print documents with the values that we input in our Apps. Using this feature, we can upload a document template or write it ourselves, pick values from the submissions of our app, merge template and the dynamic values and create a final merged PDF document. DEEP DIVE

Google Sheets/Drive

We can connect our Clappia apps to Google Sheets so that all submissions get synced to Google Sheets and the PDFs to Google Drive in real time.

Validations

Other than the individual field validations, we can add validation conditions for the entire submission. This can be useful if we want to put a validation condition which involves multiple app fields.

app settings

For example, Check-In date should be the date of the present day and Check-in time should be the present time i.e, while creating a submission.

Multiple such conditions can be defined, each with its own custom error message. While writing the validation conditions, we can use @ to get a drop-down of all the field names that be used in the conditions.

The example below shows a couple of validations on an Attendance app. The validations ensure that while checking in, the user selects the current date for Check-in date and the current time for Check-in time.
