Confirmation popup on form submission

[Mishta_P]

Would it be possible to have a pop up confirmation before the form is fully submitted in the same way we get a confirmation before deleting an row?

I have a couple of cases where it would be useful to remind the users of important details before the submission is complete.

Process > Fill Out form > Press Submit (but this simply pops up screen) > custom text, with Cancel/OK option.

Hi Mishta,

How about setting a custom action for the submit button?
Please refer to the attached image.

I hope this helps you.

+1 for this feature. Surprised this request is not getting more attention as it is a basic feature. Suggestion by @mrnmkmn is fine for error handling, but what we need is ability to get confirmation from the user.

Agree +1

Found this post looking for the same thing.

Be great if it was a standard option I could add to an action workflow:

Confirm Action
Text = Are you sure you want to do this? << Configurable would be nice
Button labels = Yes | No, Cancel << Configurable be nice
Conditional switch:

If the user selects Yes continue, workflow
if the User selects No, cancel workflow

You may already be aware, but you can do all this if you ignore the standard add/edit forms and roll your own.

Thanks, @Darren_Murphy. Can you point to docs or a video or a post that explains how I would adjust my current custom action workflow below?

I’m imaging a popup as I described. If the user selects Yes, I complete the Set Values step. If they select No, I exit the custom action workflow.

Take a look at this app:

How do I create a custom form?

I’m just dropping this here so I have something to refer people to when they ask. This is a simple concept app (copyable), that demonstrates the following techniques: Building custom forms for adding and editing list items (as an alternative to the native forms provided by Glide) Preventing duplicate new entries using User Specific Columns and Relations Enforcing mandatory input items The use of visibility conditions and user specific booleans to control user flow There is nothing particula…

As I said, this involves ignoring the standard add/edit forms and building your own. This might not be what you want, but I do it a lot because I find it gives me much greater control and flexibility - to do the sort of thing you’re looking for here, for example.

Using a custom form is the way to go. Just to add to this I use @Darren_Murphy’s approach to a custom form and then I pass those values to Glide’s Native form at the end of my flow for a preview/ checkout screen. (A sort of confirmation popup)

Why would I use the native form at the end of my process instead of rolling it into another custom/ show new screen?.. because I like the popup modal screen the native form offers (Especially in desktop mode)
