Reference Key for Supplementary Forms

ยท 4 min read

If your workflow has more than one form in it - say, a Manager Approval form followed by a Finance Review form - you've probably referenced one of those forms in a template or condition using something like forms.2.remark. That "2" just means "the second form in the workflow." It's based on position, so if you later add, remove, or reorder a step, that "2" can end up pointing at the wrong form without any warning.

This release adds a small option to work around that: Reference Key, an optional name you can set on a form step so you can refer to it by name instead of by position.
