Forms

You can build a form to collect information from your users.

Important

You may be restricted from collecting certain personal information and other regulated sensitive information via Forms. This may include restrictions set forth in your company’s contract(s) with SailPoint. Consult with your Legal Department before proceeding.

Your company is charged with obtaining consent from data subjects before collecting any additional personal information via Forms.

Should you have any questions, contact your Legal Department.

Forms are composed of sections and fields. Sections split the form into logical groups of fields and fields are the data collection points within the form. Configure conditions to modify elements of the form as the responder provides input. Create form inputs to pass information from a calling feature, like a workflow, to your form.

Forms can be used within workflows as an action or as a trigger. The Form Action allows you to assign a form as a step in a running workflow, suspending the workflow until the form is submitted or times out, and the workflow resumes. The Form Submitted Trigger initiates a workflow when a form is submitted. The trigger can be configured to initiate on submission of a full form, a form element with any value, or a form element with a particular value.

Building a Form

The form builder space allows you to add new sections and fields to create your form. Each form must start with a section and all form fields are nested within a section. Create a section and then add fields for your users to fill out. The field types include date, select, text, text area, and toggle fields.

Note

The maximum form size, including user responses, is 400 kilobytes. If it exceeds this size, the form cannot be saved or submitted.

To build a form:

  1. Go to Admin > Global > Forms.

  2. Select + New Form.

  3. Enter a Name and Description for the new form.

  4. (Optional) Select the Add to MySailPoint checkbox if you want this form added to the Forms widget.

  5. Select Continue to Builder.

  6. Select Add Section to begin building a form.

  7. Add fields and configure them so users provide the correct information.

  8. Add new sections if necessary.

  9. Select Save after you have built your form.

Sections

Sections are used to split long forms into logical groups with similar fields. They can be styled with their own title and description. Any number of fields can be added to a section. A section without any elements can also be used as a title for a form.

To add a section in the form builder:

  1. Select Add Section.

  2. Enter a name for your section in the Section Header field. The name of the section supports inline variables.

  3. Select whether to display the section header in the form using the Display toggle.

  4. Choose the header style in the Section Header Text Style field.

  5. (Optional) Add a short description that provides additional information about the section for the user in the Section Description field.

  6. Select how you want the section header to align in the Section Header Alignment section.

  7. After you have configured the section, select Apply.

  8. (Optional) Select + Add to add a field to this section.

Fields

Fields are the different data collection points within a form.

Every field requires a label and a technical key. The label is the name displayed for the field element in the form and can use plain text or inline variables. The technical key is the variable that stores the data for this element. When a form is submitted, the data for the form is sent to the workflow through this variable. The technical key is autogenerated from the element label after removing white spaces and special characters, and it is formatted in camel case.

In most cases, the technical key for a field should be unique. However, you can also use fields with the same technical key to ask different users the same question and show each user different sets of selectable answers based on their identity attributes.

For example, if you create an onboarding form asking your users to select their laptop, you might have different options for them based on their department. You can create a Select field for the options available to each department while keeping the same technical key for each laptop selection field. Then, use conditions to show your user only the field for their department.

By keeping the same technical key for all these fields, the workflow can consume the laptop selection data from a single variable instead of creating additional conditions.

Column Set

A Column Set allows you to create two columns that hold additional fields.

To add a Column Set to a section, select +Add and choose Column Set. After you have configured the columns, select Apply.

Field Description

Column Set Header Text Style Choose the header style.
Column Set Description Add a short description that provides additional information about the column set for the responder.

To add a field to the column set:

  1. Select the Add icon in the column you want to add to.

  2. Choose the field type and configure your selected field.

  3. Select Save to save the form.

Default Text An actual value that populates the field before the user has entered text. Default text overrides placeholder text. If the user does not enter a response in the field, the default value will be submitted.

Text field validations are criteria the text field entry must meet. Use the Validation tab of the Text Configuration panel to set the criteria, including minimum length, maximum length, and a regular expression to match. If a regular expression is specified, you must also create an error message that is displayed if the field does not meet your requirements.

Note

The default value set for a text field does not check against the text field validations. Setting a default value for a text field that does not match the validations results in an error when a user tries to submit the form with the default data.

Text Area Field

A Text Area field allows users to enter a custom response in a larger text box.

To add a Text Area field to a section, select + Add and choose Text Area Field. After you have configured the field, select Apply.

Settings

On the Settings page, you can edit the form details, add inputs, and create conditions for the form. From the form builder, select the Settings icon . Form inputs and conditions work together to pass data from a workflow into a form.

Details

From the Details page, you can edit the name and description of the form.

  1. Go to Settings > Details.

  2. Make any changes to the name and description.

  3. (Optional) Select the Add to MySailPoint checkbox if you want the form added to the Forms widget.

  4. Select Apply to apply your changes.

  5. Select the Exit icon to exit the Settings page.

  6. Select Save to save your changes.

Form Inputs

Form inputs are used when you want to send data from a workflow to a form, using the Form Action step in a workflow. These inputs use dynamic data from the workflow to pre-populate the form and determine which conditional form elements to display to the user completing the form. From the Form Inputs page, you can create variables with unique names. These inputs are used to build conditions in your form. Data is then passed from a workflow into the form using these variables and conditions.

Form inputs are also used as inline variables in the form. Inline variables are supported in all field, section, and column labels. This allows you to create customized labels as data is pulled into the form.

Caution

Inputs should be uniquely named. An ID is auto-generated for the Input based on the assigned name. The name can be changed later, but that automatically updates the ID. Any changes to the ID will break existing conditions or inline variables. Conditions and inline variables using that Input will need to be updated with the new ID.

To create a form input:

  1. Go to Settings > Form Inputs.

  2. Select + New Input.

  3. Enter a unique name for the variable. The name must be at least 3 characters long.

    The ID is auto-generated based on the name.

  4. Select the input type.

  5. (Optional) Enter a description for the variable.

    Repeat steps 2-5 until you have created all necessary inputs, up to a maximum of 20 inputs.

  6. Select Apply.

  7. Select the Exit icon to exit the Settings page.

  8. Select Save to save your changes.

You must create conditions using these inputs for the data to get passed from the workflow into the form.

You must add a JSONPath expression to the desired label to use inline variables in the form.

Conditions

Conditions allow you to change the fields that are shown to users based on how the user answers previous questions in the form or based on the data passed into the form from a workflow. Conditions consist of rules and effects.

A rule uses a comparison operator to compare a selected technical key or form input to a value and evaluates it as true or false. You can create multiple rules in a condition. Rules will be applied in the order they appear. An effect is a state that a form element takes if the conditions of the rule are met. You can add multiple effects for the same condition, applying the effects to the same or multiple form elements. Effects will apply in the order they appear.

Note

  • If you have multiple effects set for the same form element that contradict each other, the last listed effect will remain.

  • If a condition rule is not met, the contrary effect will be applied.

  • A maximum of 20 rules can be added to the same condition.

  • A maximum of 20 effects can be added to the same condition.

To create conditions for your form:

  1. Go to Settings > Conditions.

  2. Select + Create New.

  3. Configure the criteria that must be met for this condition. This is the rule of the condition.

  4. To add additional rules to the same condition, select + Add and configure the additional fields.

  5. Select Any or All on the toggle to indicate when the effects apply.

  6. Configure how the form elements will be impacted when the criteria for this condition are met. This is the effect of the condition.

  7. To add additional effects to the same rule, select + Add and configure the additional fields.

  8. After you have configured your condition, select Apply.

  9. Select the Exit icon to exit the Settings page.

  10. Select Save to save your changes.

Field Description
If Select a technical key or form input to compare with another value within the rule.
Comparison Operator Select a comparison operator that compares the selected technical key or form input to the string value.
String Value Enter a value to compare to the technical key or form input in the If field.
A List of Values Enter one or more values to compare to the selected form input values or Select field values in the If field. This option is only available if the selected input is an array type input.
Any or All Choose whether Any or All of your rules must be met for the effects to apply. Select Any to apply the effects if one rule is met. Select All to require all rules to be met for the effects to apply.
Action Select an action to apply to the selected element if the rule or rules are met based on your configurations.
Element Select a form element for the action to apply to.

The comparison operators compare the form element with the selected technical key or form input to the string value. The available comparison operators are:

Operator Description
Equals The form element value is equal to the entered string value.
Does Not Equal The form element value is not equal to the entered string value.
Contains The form element value contains the entered string value.
Does Not Contain The form element value does not contain the entered string value.
Is Empty The form element value is empty. If this operator is selected, the String Value field becomes disabled.
Is Not Empty The form element has a value. If this operator is selected, the String Value field becomes disabled.
Ends With The form element value ends with the entered string value.
Does Not End With The form element value does not end with the entered string value.
Includes The form element value includes the entered string value. This operator only applies to form elements with multiple selections allowed.
Does Not Include The form element value does not include the entered string value. This operator only applies to form elements with multiple selections allowed.
Starts With The form element value starts with the entered string value.
Does Not Start With The form element value does not start with the entered string value.

The actions are how the selected field element will be changed when the criteria of the condition are met. The available actions for the effect are:

Action Description
Hide Hides the selected form element.
Show Shows the selected form element.
Enable Enables the selected form element to allow user input.
Disable Disables the selected form element. Users can see the form element but cannot interact with it.
Set Default Value Sets a default value for the form element from a selected form input. Use the From dropdown to select the form input you want to use for the default value. Note that users are still able to change this value. If you want to set a default value that cannot be changed, add another effect. Set the Action to Disable and select the same form element. This will set the default value and make the element read-only.

To create conditions using defined form inputs:

  1. Go to Settings > Conditions.

  2. Select + Create New.

  3. In the If field, select the form input you want.

  4. Set the Comparison Operator to Is Not Empty.

  5. Select All on the toggle to indicate when the effects apply.

  6. Set the Action to Set Default Value.

  7. In the From field, select the form input you want to be the default value.

  8. In the Element field, select the form element to apply the default value to.

  9. (Optional) To make the default value read-only:

    a. Select + Add to add another effect.

    b. Set the Action field to Disable.

    c. In the Element field, select the same form element.

  10. After you have configured the condition, select Apply.

  11. Select the Exit icon to exit the Settings page.

  12. Select Save to save your changes.

Inline Variables

Inline variables use form inputs and form data to create customized labels in the form. Inline variables are supported in all field, section, and column labels. Multiple inline variables can be used within one label. Include a complete JSONPath expression in a label to add an inline variable to your form.

If there is an error evaluating an inline variable, it will present as a blank space.

Note

The text {{$.}} can no longer be used as plain text in a label. This is evaluated as an incomplete inline variable and results in an error.

To use an inline variable from a form input, enter:

{{$.form.input.[inputID]}}

For example:

{{$.form.input.studentName}}

This expression uses the name of the form input as text in the label of a field.

To use an inline variable from form data, enter:

{{$.form.data.[technical key of the form element]}}

For example:

{{$.form.data.country}}

This expression uses the data from that form element as text in the label of a field.

Note

If you use a Date field technical key as a form data inline variable for a label, the data displays using your local date format.

To use multiple inline variables together, enter both JSONPath expressions in the label. No operations are supported, but each expression is evaluated individually.

For example:

(attributes.country:{{$.form.data.country}} AND attributes.department:{{$.form.data.department}})

As a label, this expression uses the form data to display the country and department entered into the form fields.

Interactive Forms

Interactive Forms are used within a workflow to collect user input during the flow of the interactive process. Adding an Interactive Form action to a workflow allows you to insert an interactive form into a workflow. When the workflow gets to the Interactive Form step, it will pause and wait for the user to enter the required information before proceeding, using the information collected from the user to perform the steps that follow in the workflow. For more information on adding an interactive form to a workflow, refer to the Interactive Process documentation.

Important

Interactive Form actions can only be added to workflows using the Interactive Trigger. Adding an Interactive Form action to a workflow without the Interactive Trigger results in validation errors and the workflow cannot be enabled.

Interactive Forms are also used within Privilege Task Automation workflows built from templates. When a Privilege Task Automation template is selected, the forms within the template are automatically created and configured within the Interactive Form actions.

Caution

Forms that are automatically created within templates have been designed to collect specific information for the required actions in the workflow. Editing these forms could impact the success of the workflow.

If you delete a workflow that had a form attached to an Interactive Form action, the form is not deleted. To delete the form, after deleting the workflow, you must separately delete the form.

Canceling an Interactive Form

Interactive Forms are canceled by an admin or when a user fails to submit the form within 30 days. If error handling is not enabled for the Interactive Form action, the workflow will be canceled if the interactive form is canceled. If the Interactive Form action has error handling enabled and a form is canceled, the action encounters an error and the workflow proceeds down the error branch of the workflow.

  2. On the Details tab, select the Add to MySailPoint checkbox.

  3. Select Save.

The form is added as a quick link to the Forms widget on the home page.

Note

If you save after you select the checkbox and 10 forms are already added to the widget, an error message displays and the changes will not save.

Completing a Form

When you assign a form to a user, they receive an email notification with a link to the form. This link is their only access to this form. When they follow the link, they are prompted to log in to Identity Security Cloud and then brought directly to the form. Ensure the form is thoroughly defined so it tells your responder everything they need to know to fill out the form correctly. A responder cannot save and return to the form. They can leave and use the same link to get to the form again, but they will need to start over. If they have not filled out the form, a reminder email is sent to them. After the configured deadline has passed, the form is no longer available for submission.

Here is an example of what your form might look like to your users:
