How can I notify users if form is open

[Former Community Member]

I have a form which is stored on the network, the user then creates a shortcut to the form (to save email space) then emails the shortcut to a selected team to review and apply their electronic signature, what I would like to be able to do is is warn the team if the form is already opened prior to them trying to sign and save.

Any suggestions would be gratefully received

You could create a form action to save the form into initialization.

Condition: When form "youform" has finished loading: Save the form.

This save will fail if somebody else has this form opened.

The save will happen in background and you should catch the error to show a proper error message to the user.
