FAQPage Schema

How does Cognito Forms handle form state management and save workflows in the builder UI?▼

Cognito Forms models form definitions as structured state objects within Vue.js components, serializing the data to persist form configurations across user sessions and ensuring reliable save and load workflows.

How do I add new field types to a Vue.js form builder component?▼

Adding new field types requires integrating the new field definition into the existing Vue.js component architecture, ensuring it hooks into the builder's state management and serialization processes for proper save and load behavior.

How does the Cognito Forms builder serialize and deserialize form definitions?▼

The Cognito Forms builder serializes form definitions by converting the current UI component state into a structured data format, and deserializes them by reconstructing that state when loading saved forms back into the builder interface.

Can I use Vue.js components to host legacy UI pieces within a form builder architecture?▼

Yes, the Cognito Forms builder architecture uses host Vue.js components to load and wrap legacy UI pieces, allowing incremental integration of older form builder elements within a modern Vue.js state management workflow.

What is the best way to manage form state in a Vue.js admin UI workflow?▼

The best way involves leveraging Vue.js component architecture to model form definitions, applying robust state management patterns to track UI changes, and serializing the state to persist forms within an admin workflow.
