System Fields
Category: Form Builder - Toolbox Section: Field Types Last Updated: 2023-11-01
System fields control submission behavior, not document content.
BEST PRACTICE
Hide system fields in a hidden panel so users cannot see or edit them.
Assign ACL
Set record access permissions for users or teams.
Sub-Components
| Component | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Team/User Names | Entity to grant permissions |
| Entity Type | User or Team |
| Permission Type | Can View, Can Edit, or Set Owner |
Important Notes
- Only one Assign ACL field per form
- Must use field name
assignAcl - Recommended: Hide and use Default Value property
- Alternative: Set via script without the field
- Can also set in Submission Settings
System Redirect
Redirect users to another page on submission.
Setup
- Add System Redirect field
- Set value to target URL
- Hide the field
Dynamic Redirects
Use Rules Builder to change redirect location based on form data.
LIMITATION
Forms with system redirects don't show the document download popup.
Important Notes
- Only one System Redirect field per form
- Recommended: Hide to prevent user tampering
- URL must be complete (including protocol)
