Processes
the content from a form submitted by a client to the Forms service.
This operation can determine the processing state of the form that
was submitted, such as the button clicked by a user. You get one
of the following results from completing this operation:
The same content type that was submitted to the Forms
service if the form did not complete processing
XML data or PDF data
If the content type of the form
passed to this operation is not supported, no processing occurs
and the data is returned. Use the processFormSubmission operation
to retrieve and process the data from a submitted form.
For
example, your application must determine whether the user clicked
the submit button and extract the data to save to a process variable
from the submitted form. Use the processFormSubmission operation
to determine whether the user clicked the submit button by retrieving
the value from the Action property after the operation completes
execution. Also, use this operation to extract the XML data from
the Output XML property and save it to a process variable.
For
information about the General and Route Evaluation property groups,
see Common operation properties.
