Dies tapfoms have an app link like tapforms:// that I can use to open databases or database entries from other apps.
If not, it would be very useful.
On iOS when you have a record open you can do “Copy Record Link” via the hamburger menu on the top right to take you back to that record. On the Mac, “Copy Record Link” is under the Edit menu.
The format is tapformz://record/view/[database ID]/[form ID]/[record ID]
. The database ID is a unique identifier for your document, form ID is the internal identifier for the form and similarly record ID for the record. In addition to being able to use the UI to get the values, you can also use record.getUrl()
via the Scripting API to chain actions together, embed into logs or use in field scripts. The JavaScript API also covers the ability to call into scripts in Tap Forms from external applications as well which gives you the ability to trigger form scripts with custom data. I have a video on how you can use this to integrate with Siri Shortcuts with barcode scanning of packages as a use case.
