How to create a multi‑page form in Now Mobile (Mobile Studio) and then create an Incident

I want to build a multi‑page form flow in the Now Mobile app

Goal -

Create a flow where:

  1. Page 1 → User fills some inputs (e.g., barcode scan , String) then Next button
  2. Page 2 → User fills additional inputs
  3. Submit → All data from Page 1 + Page 2 is combined and used to create an Incident

Current progress

  • I’ve already created the first page with an icon section and a Function that includes a barcode scan input.
  • The scanned value is captured successfully.

What I need guidance on

  1. How to pass values from Page 1 to Page 2 in a clean way (App parameters? Destination mapping?).
  2. How to build Page 2 as a new applet/form and prepopulate it with values from Page 1.
  3. How to collect inputs from both pages and send them to a single Server Action to create an Incident.
  4. Best practices for:
    • multi‑step forms in Mobile Studio
    • navigation between applets
    • storing/scoping parameters
    • executing Server Actions with combined inputs

Expected final result

  • User completes Page 1 → clicks Next
  • Page 2 opens with some values passed from Page 1
  • User completes remaining fields → taps Submit
  • An Incident is created with all values from both forms
  • Ideally navigate to the newly created incident record

Hi @VivekH 
can you share the details of how you have created the first page with bar code and how it takes the value and where it store them.

 

Hello @RachapudiK ,

  1. First, I created an Input Form Screen with individual pages for each input. The first page captures the barcode input, followed by subsequent pages for other inputs such as short description or description.

  2. Next, I created a function (Action Item type) and configured an action item. Within this function, I linked the Input Form Screen. The action item is set to create a new record in the table and populate it with the scanned/input values as required.

  3. Additionally, you can create a card (Icon Section Destination Function) and link it to the function created above. This card can then be placed on any screen wherever needed.VivekH_0-1779960879911.png
