Creating Custom Action with Core Form Container

[KartikKarnayilDC]

Tried below approach to create custom form action, this works for foundation form container but not for the core adaptive forms container component.

Writing a Custom Submit in AEM Forms | Adobe Experience Manager

After checking error log, there is a null pointer exception.

java.lang.NullPointerException: null
at com.adobe.aem.forms.af.rest.internal.servlets.AdaptiveFormSubmitServlet.doPost(AdaptiveFormSubmitServlet.java:253) [com.adobe.aem.com.adobe.aem.forms.af.rest:1.0.54]

Any pointers on how to support this with core adaptive form components?

This is resolved now. After debugging existing OOTB Submit action code, followed the same approach.

i.e.

1) Created Service implementing FormSubmitActionService

2) Override both methods getServiceName and submit.
3) Use the service name returned as part of getServiceName method in the node property submitService.

4) When form is submitted using custom action, submit method is invoked in which logic can be written.

Thanks for the update.

Could you let me know what AEM you have installed and the versions?
