Thank You pages in modern forms

Hi,

When you create an item in a SharePoint list using a form, such as modern forms created in Ultimate Forms, you are normally redirected back to the list itself. But there are cases where you want the users to be redirected someplace else, such as creating another item, editing the item just created or even some custom page. A common requirement is to be redirected to a Thank You page, especially in cases where you don't need the user to see the actual list of items. Up until now, you could create the thank you page as a custom page (outside of Ultimate Forms) and configure the page's URL as the redirect target. Unfortunately, it's not always easy for everyone and in some scenarios, such as external forms, might be even simply impossible.

We are happy to announce the addition of Thank You pages directly to our Form Designer. Now you can define your own Thank You page as part of the actual form, preserving its look & feel. You also have the full set of features of modern forms at your disposal, such as buttons, rules, column values, etc. You can create great looking, dynamic Thank You pages in literally minutes!

I will now guide you through the process. I am using our Bug Tracker pre-configured solution. You can install this solution from the Solution Gallery directly in your Ultimate Forms app.

1. Enter Form Designer for the list, you will see the option to switch to Thank You page design mode in the bottom right corner.
   
   
   
2. As you can see on the left, most columns and controls are available and can be added to the design canvas of the Thank You page.
   
3. My Thank You page will contain two controls, Header and Fragment. In the fragment i will be using column values from the form to make it individualized and dynamic.
   
4. Next, I want to style my page. Using Styles toolbar button I opened the Styles pane and added background image from the gallery and content section's inner padding
   
5. I also added a Button Bar, renaming Edit button to "Modify submission" and Close button to "Return to list". You can also see my header here.
   
6. Now it's time to allow the form to use our new Thank You page. I modified the Redirect for New form to point to the new Thank You page
   
7. I also want the form to be accessible to customers outside of the organization (this part is of course optional). To achieve that, I enabled External form functionality
   
   Here I allowed external users access to New form. You can also copy the form URL from here to be provided to the external users. Note that I didn't configure Redirect URL, external forms use Thank You pages automatically.
8. Publish the form and it's ready to be used.
9. I'm filling out the form.
   
10. Once I save it, I am shown the new Thank You page
    

As you can see, Thank You pages are extremely easy to configure and deploy, yet they provide another powerful tool for creating engaging, dynamic forms!

Note: SharePoint uses service worker cache to store and serve pages and resources from a local cache. That can prevent the latest version of our script from loading and you won't be able to see the latest features in action. If that's the case, click F12, switch to Console tab, paste the following and click Enter, it will clear that cache:

caches.keys().then(function(names) {for (let name of names) caches.delete(name);});

Enjoy!
