AEM 6.5 Form Submission Action

Avatar

Level 10

Hi,

 

Kindly suggest how to configure AEM 6.5 Form Submission Action to store form data in JCR.

It used to be an out of box option in earlier AEM versions.

 

Thanks,

Rama.

For your demo, you can use the OOTB Forms Portal Submit Action that saves the data in the CRX in the form of XML under /content/forms/fp/admin/submit/[metadata/data] but as @GirishBedekar advised, we don't recommend using this approach for known reasons.

 

Hope this helps.

If you just want to store the data as an xml file you can configure the form to submit to an AEM workflow 

otherwise you will have to write some custom code to do the same

Thanks Girish. But It used to be an out of box option in earlier AEM versions correct? I never had to configure any wf or write any custom code for the same purpose. Thanks, Rama.

Yes we have removed it for security reasons and we do not recommend to store the data on the publish instance
