In this article, we will demonstrate how to retrieve values from a subform. We'll use a simple app as an example, where we read the value from the subform and set it in a form field.

Custom HTML

This is the Javascript code that reads the value of the subform and sets the field value.

Javascript
<script>
    $(document).ready(function(){
        selectmain = $(FormUtil.getField("field1")); //Get ID of subform
        selectmain.on("change",function(){
            setTimeout(function(){
                my_name = $("#field2_subform_name"); //Get subform value
                my_country = $("#field2_subform_country");
                my_date = $("#field2_subform_date");
                var field1 = FormUtil.getField("field3"); //Get field of form
                var field2 = FormUtil.getField("field4");
                $(field1).val(my_name.val()); //Set field to value of subform
                $(field2).val(my_country.val());
            },100);
        });
    })
</script>
