Set default value when card is created

Programming and Web Services
#1

Hi all,

I would like your help here.
I’d like to set an auto value for a field, so when someone creates a card, a specified field is supposed to get a specified value in advance, therefore you don’t have to fill it out every time.
Can you provide me a complete javascript, and i will see how can integrate a code in general as well?

Thank you in advance,
LB

Hi,
This is my code to auto value, the code include: set value, get from reference, if you wanna more, can console.log(api)

globalThis.api = api;
api.bind = ["TLCInfraBoxCabinet"];
var pCode = api.getReferenceCode("TLCInfraBoxCabinet");
var code = api.getValue("Code");
if (typeof(pCode) != "undefined" && pCode != null) {
    if (typeof(code) == "undefined" || code == null) {
        api.setValue(pCode + ".");
    } else if (code.indexOf(pCode) < 0) {
        api.setValue(pCode + ".");
    }
}

I use globalThis.api = api; to set ref of api to window instance, then you can use it in console.log

Hi

A BIG thanks to you, it could resolve my problem.
I’ve got one more brief question, if you could help me in this case too:

I’d like to create conditional fields as well, for eg.: show only “X” field when “Y” field is set to a certain value.

I’D really really appreciate a solution for that! :slight_smile:
