Query:
1) Is this implementation possible in AEM adaptive forms using JSON schema ? Is there any other way to implement this three functionalities in AEM forms?
As of now, I completed functionality-1 using Basic adaptive form without JSON schema(form data model as NONE). Calling webservice from rule editor and displayed the data for dropdown/checkbox fields.
I read the below links to implement the functionality-3
https://docs.adobe.com/content/help/en/experience-manager-64/forms/adaptive-forms-advanced-authoring... mentioned in this link is not related to rest webservice)
https://helpx.adobe.com/in/experience-manager/6-4/forms/using/configure-data-sources.html(Looks like this approach work only in Adobe cloud platform). We are not using Adobe cloud platform

Use-case is achievable using forms. What's the specific need of schema here? That doesn't seem to be impacting the functionality anyway.
@Mayank_Gandhi Thanks for your response.
I have explained my requirement with single section only for understanding. However there are 6 to 7 sections in single form, which need to be filled by user before submitting.
We have different webservices for getting individual dropdown values and for saving each section. So we are planning to use JSON schema which help us to prefill the data for each section in functionality-3.
There are different webservices to get each section details which are entered during form submission.
With respect to functionality-3, i have the following question.
As I mentioned earlier, we are populating dropdown values by calling webservice from rule editor for functionality-1. For functionality-3, we have used prefill concept using JSON schema (com.adobe.forms.common.service.DataProvider) to display the user entered values in each section.
In Custom prefill class, we are invoking webservice call to get each section details and binding the data to form.
However we have to show both all dropdown values(which is from rule editor for functionality-1) along with user selected value. Please let me know how to display user selected value along with other dropdown values for functionality-3.

@Mayank_Gandhi - Thanks for responding to this query.
In below screenshots, Checkbox name was wrongly entered as "Male" instead of "Gender". Please ignore it.
Functionality -1(User entering the values and submitting the form. It is in draft state)
For City dropdown, webservice is invoked from rule editor via Ajax to get city dropdown values.
Functionality -3(User reentering the values and submitting the form again. It is in rejected state)
We are using prefill concept using JSON schema (com.adobe.forms.common.service.DataProvider) to display the user entered values while submitting the form.
We created Custom prefill class(implements DataProvider) which invokes webservice call to get form details(Name, City, Interests Gender) in JSON format and binds the data to form.
Json Format:
{
"PersonDetails": {
"name" : "test",
"city" : "chennai",
"gender" : "male",
"interest" : ["Swimming", "Running"]
}
}
We have to show both all dropdown values(Bangalore, Chennai, Hyderabad) along with user selected value(Chennai) in City dropdown. As mentioned above, I am loading city dropdown values from Rule editor and user selected value via Custom Prefill class. Please let me know how to load the dropdown values along with user selected value in single place instead of loading from different places(rule editor and Custom Prefill class)
There are 2 things:
1. AJAX call to dropdown
2. loading the prefill
You might be knowing already when prefill is being loaded with Rejected as a new form would not have any submitted data at first. I assume that you have a flag to handle and differentiate a form that is new versus a submitted form. The basic thing in this case would be to make synchronous JS call or use promises. Post completion of first AJAX CALL issue a promise and do a FDM call if promise is resolved. You should also do a setValue for dropdown in later.

Thanks for you response.
So for FDM call, i have to follow instruction as per below link. Create data model using Swagger file since we are using Rest webservice.
https://helpx.adobe.com/in/experience-manager/6-3/forms/using/invoke-form-data-model-services.html
So the below prefill service will not be useful for this functionality because both(Custom Prefill class and Ajax call to load dropdown values) are happening at different time.
As per your below point, FDM call will not set selected dropdown value. It will just populate all other input fields(other than dropdown and Checkbox values) in the form. In this case, how to read the value(User selected) in rule editor to set dropdown value. Should we make another FDM call to get user selected dropdown value(what user selected while creating the form) ?
You should also do a setValue for dropdown in later.
