New app on market: Form Builder

It’s been a long time in the making, but now the Form Builder app is finally released on the market:

https://market.enonic.com/vendors/enonic/form-builder

Many thanks to @it_vegard who started the initiative with his Enonic XP Formbuilder project which this app is a fork of. I modified the feature set to something closer to what was available in Enonic CMS and optimized for user-friendliness. Install the app and add to your site, create a page template with the form view part, and you’re good to go!

Some features:

  • Create form content in Content Studio where inputs are configured as option-sets
  • Form responses can be sent by e-mail
  • Generate reports as a CSV file from a widget in Content Studio
  • Three types of data storage policies for GDPR compliance
  • Google reCAPTCHA v2 support

I’ve messed around with the app and it looks good! I

have some comments/questions:

  • It’s probably safer to have the “delete responses”-button default off when exporting the forms? A couple of times now I’ve deleted all responses by mistake
  • Seems attachments are not deleted when the respons is deleted during export?
  • Everyone has read access to respons + attachments. If you for some reason have a matching template anyone can view the form responses and attachments?

Thanks, Tommy!

Yes, the “delete responses” can of course be off by default. My mind was a bit back and forth on what the default should be. GDPR dictates that a processor should erase stored personal data as soon as it is done processing, but as you point out: We don’t want to delete reponses by accident, especially if the exported report was incomplete, malformed, or otherwise erroneous. Hmm… maybe I should set it to be off by default, and put in a setting for default on/off in the app config?

Thanks for identifying the attachments-not-deleted bug! It should be just two lines of code to fix, using the repo lib.

Regarding read access for everyone: Is this only a problem when data is stored in the cms-repo so that it’s visible as children content beneath the form, or is it also a problem if you’ve set the storage policy to be in its own hidden repo, which is the default setting?

An option to delete responses on export by default would be nice yes

I’ve only tried using the cms-repo where the respones are child content to the parent form and visible in content studio
