Add a button and action

App tutorial · Step 5 of 25

Build a three-form app that creates an Active Directory user and manages its group memberships.

In this step, we'll add a button item, and then make the button perform an action.

1. For the final item in this row (spanning the remaining 2 columns), we'll drag and drop a Button.
2. We'll set the button's properties as follows: - alignment: right - button size: small - button style: dark - button text: Clear form - margin trbl: 44__
3. Now, we'll make this button do something. With the button still selected, go to the Actions tab.
4. In the Actions tab, click Add. The Form Action dialog box is shown.
5. Set the Action Type dropdown to Form Initialize.
6. Click Save. The initialize form action is now listed for this button in the Actions tab.
7. We'll click Save to save our progress so far.
