I’m trying to setup a simple entry mechanism for clients to select which gift they want from me once they order. I want them to verify the address I have for them on file and select a gift from a single select field and submit. I created a db with those fields. I tried to create a form and a custom app exposing that information for a specific entity (client) and it doesn’t seem to work. I shared the space publicly. I can get a blank form to show publicly but not one with the client information pre filled out. Note the client is not a fibery user. When I try the app route I had fibery AI create the app but I just get an unauthorized message when trying the url. Any ideas? Thank you!!!
Hey David! Welcome to the Fibery Community 
I have some questions, thoughts, and warnings for you.
- You want them to get a link, press it, see the address, and select a drop-down, then submit?
- Is there a reason you want to go with Custom Apps and not a normal public Fibery form?
A few thoughts:
- Right now it is not possible to create public forms using Custom Apps, but I think it’s on the roadmap.
- I’d recommend using a simple public form, and prefilling values to set the values you want the user to be “Confirming” you can generate this URL using a formula per person, so you don’t need to write it by hand. See here: Fibery. You’d also want a hidden field for the Public ID of the client itself, so that you know which client is confirming (or changing!) their address.
Warning:
When sharing a space publicly, it allows everyone to access ALL data within that space, even if you don’t have view that show the data, it’s still searchable. So don’t forget to turn off public sharing of that space.
Curious to get your thoughts!
Thank you @RonMakesSystems ! I have tried the forms approach. I built a small test. Here’s the public link: Fibery
That works, but Fibery AI said the following link should work for a particular client record with their info pre-filled it out. It doesn’t show the information. Fibery
I am not sure how to get the right URL to show the pre-filled form? Thank you!!!
Also, there’s not much we can do with branding or removing the Fibery disclaimer on forms right?
Weird that the Fibery AI suggested this. Maybe you can try again after the update today and see if it does a better job.
In any case, you can read the guide here to see how to set it up (or copy the guide to AI so it knows).
About branding, not much you can change. If you’re on the pro plan you can remove the Fibery logo, but the colors and layout will stay the same.
I also can’t see from this form if you have any hidden fields, it’s important you have a prepopulated hidden field so you can properly link it to your internal system, no matter what the client fills out.
Let me know if it works!
