SubmitForm error doesn't throw error message

Hi team,

 

I have an odd issue here. I'm not doing anything special but submitting a form with the data flowing to a SharePoint list. I've done multiple apps in the same environment doing the same thing without any problem.

What is weird that when submitting the form, the app runs right into the OnFailure of the form. There is not system error message.  When I try to get the actual error, the ERRORS table is empty. So, I don't get a message of what goes wrong 😞 (I activated formular-level error management)

I also startet the monitor in the background but it also doesn't give me an issue. The last entry in the monitor, though, is the step before the submit of the form.

 

I'm completely lost where to look.

    Are you not seeing the Submit (Patch) event in the Monitor Tool?  

    How are you submitting your form?

    Cool mistake on my site.

    The form supports two options to return hardware. Either the hardware shall be destroyed or donated.

    In case the hw is going to be donated the user must provide details of the receiver. These fields are not required in case the hw is going to be destroyed.

    In the app I set the form fields to required = false if the user selected the destruction option. But in SharePoint the fields were still tagged "mandatory" and of course the required = false doesn't change this.

    I found the form.Error property which I hadn't seen before. 

     

    Thanks for you having your fingers crossed 🙂

    Hi Randy, 

    I used the Submit for the form. But apparently - see my solution - the form wasn't valid, which I completely missed. But I know now that it is easy (and useful) to check "form.Valid" before submitting anything 🙂

    Thanks for your support.
