AEM adaptive Forms 6.4 Checkbox value loading from service call

1. You can parse the json using jquery[3] and also in the same script you can iterate the checkbox group over the parsed object and set the label[4] and checkbox 'checked' status[2].

var checkboxes = $('.chk_.guideCheckBoxItem input');

var labels = $('.chk_.guideCheckBoxItem .guideWidgetLabel.right');

var arr=['a','b','c']; //sample array for labels binding you should get it from you json instead

  for(var i=0; i < arr.length; i++){

  $(labels[i]).text(arr[i]);

Hi Mayank,

Thanks for the reply...I have used the below script on the checkbox intialize event of AEM forms.I can able to get the value from backend in the variable ccName, but the checkbox with label is not getting generated (As well as, I dont find any error in console).Did i miss something?

Values for ccName from backend:

10005=New Vehicle Orchestration

10003=Loyalty Registration

10004=Vehicle Commands

10001=Login

10002=Rewards_L

10000=Create Account

$.ajax({

        type: 'POST',

        url: '/bin/path/consentcontextsdata',

        async: true,

        dataType: 'json',

        success: function(result, textStatus, jqXHR)

        {

          //data - response from server        

           for(var i=0;i<result.length;i++)

          {            

             var ccName = result[i].ccID + '='+result[i].consentcontextName;

             var ccID = result[i].ccID;

             console.log(ccName);

             var checkboxes = $('.chk_.guideCheckBoxItem input');

             var labels = $('.chk_.guideCheckBoxItem .guideWidgetLabel.right');

            $(labels[i]).text(ccName);         

           }

        },

        error: function (jqXHR, textStatus, errorThrown)

        {

               alert("Server hit to fetch group failed");

        }

    });

You need to update the element name for the checkbox . chk_ is from my form.

Hi Mayank,

Thanks for correcting..After changing element name, the code works partially.

Initially the service value is not appending,but i have added items manually to the checkbox (2 items in the screenshot 1)and after that the number of items i have added is updated from the service and the remaining values from the service is not getting reflected.

You can see from my below screenshot, i have 5 values from service.....since i have 2 elements added manually only those two values are getting reflected...

Do i need to add anything before the line? Inorder to add the item to the checkbox

                                                            $(labels[i]).text(ccName);

Regards,

Hari

You will be able to iterate and set the checkbox values only on the number of checkbox items available in a group. So, if you are expecting 5 checkboxes create that many.

Hi Mayank,

I need to create the checkbox items dynamically based on the number of values from the service (Not manually).Any insight on,how to create programmatically based on the number of values from service.

Not sure it's possible OOTB, how many checkboxes are you expecting as such?

Anything between 10 to 25
