Reset value of a field while updating the Confiform entry/records

[Dhiraj Kr_ Gupta]

I have a Checkbox( group) as a field in Confiform. when someone wants to update the record,it automatically pre checked as it was checked when created. I want to remove this  pre checked feature and needs to be checked when someone edit or modify

[Alex Medved _ConfiForms_ · Accepted solution]

Do you have a rule that sets the value on this field or how is it "pre checked"?

[Dhiraj Kr_ Gupta]

Yes it was checked during when it was first time created/ submitted the form. So when some wants to modify, the user needs to check the box for the consent.

And you want to reset it the moment they attempt to modify the record?

Consider setting up Reset rule - https://wiki.vertuna.com/display/CONFIFORMS/ConfiForms+Field+Definition+Rules#ConfiFormsFieldDefinitionRules-Resetvalue

[Dhiraj Kr_ Gupta]

Yes, but the method is not provided in the link you shared

[Alex Medved _ConfiForms_]

What do you mean? "Reset Value" rule is part of ConfiForms Field Definition Rules macro.

[Dhiraj Kr_ Gupta]

I am not getting how to do it, can you help me please

Add ConfiForms Field Definition Rule, set action to Reset Value and put the field name you want to reset in the corresponding parameter

Can I use this to uncheck a checkbox that was originally checked during the creation of the request, after someone modifies and saves the request?

[Alex Medved _ConfiForms_]

Yes, you can set up a rule (field definition) or an IFTTT rule to run edit (onModified)

Or for the Field Definition rule then the condition could be something like !id:[empty]

[Manojkumar Yadav]

In IFTT, I'm using the onModified trigger.

I want to uncheck a checkbox field called "Resubmit". What should I set in the Parameter set on entry to accomplish this?

Additionally, I'm using the checked/unchecked state of "Resubmit" to show or hide an Edit button.

Should I enable the "No Event Propagation" option in this case, or not?

[Alex Medved _ConfiForms_]

Checkbox has two values: true or false

Set it to false to uncheck it
