Hi Garrett, we had some internal feeback process which delayed us a bit into May for the release. Hope this feature is useful. I understand that we need them to be edittable but it is not currently in the near term roadmap due to other priorities. However you would be happy to know that we are currently working on Tables in NAC which will enable a lot of 'edit' scenarios for forms. I dont have specific timeline however we will be looking ro release MVP this calendar year.
12-May 2023 - The read-only Repeating Section feature has been released to NAC/NWC.
Still need to wait for the editable Repeating Section functionality to have any practicality in real world usage.
Any update on this feature? April 2023 is almost over.
I am excited to share that we will be releasing functionality for designer to reuse repeating section data from the start form into task forms within a workflow. Typical use cases involve task approvers who will be able to see the start form information in repeating section to make an informed decision (some described in comments above). Designers will be able to add labels and images to the reused repeating sections in task forms. At this stage we will not be able to support ability to edit the data in task forms. The feature is targeted to be released next month (April 2023). I will keep this ticket updated with the progress.
This is really a massive shortcoming in the product imho. There is no way to show/allow updating of data entered in a repeating table for task users in the workflow. The same for Multi-value choice controls, attachment controls or any control other than single text controls. We have to spend countless hours implementing work-arounds if we want task users to be able to update submitted collection data.
I was shown how to grab the xml and put it in a label to display it as a table, but that isn't editable. I was subsequently shown how to use a component workflow back to O365 to populate a form there that is editable, but what's the point of that if I can just create it in O365 in the first place?
I really like NWC, it does have some really nice functionality and the speed compared to O365 is wonderful, but we won't be able to use it for anything but the simplest of workflows until this is implemented.
If we could pass a form on with all that workflow's previously answered values onto another step, that would really help. Currently I'm using loops for the levels of authentication, so simply being able to pre-populate with values and indexes would help.
As a result of not being able to do this, I've got a really labour intensive workaround, using static fields.
