Canvas App - Form from a Collection

Is there a way to easily create a form when using a Collection as the datasource?

 

Thanks

    No.  A collection is a table in memory.  It has no datasource attributes which a form needs in order to determine how it should function.  A form needs a datasource in order to set up properly.

     

    I hope this is helpful for you.
