  • For correct parsing of hash variable, replace # with $$ in your plugin for parsing to take place in correct context.
    • EXAMPLE - Assignment mode, use $$form.request.name$$.
    • EXAMPLE - Record mode, use $$form.request.name[@recordId@]$$.
    • EXAMPLE - Retrieve values from iterator's dataset, use {columnName}.

Advanced

NameDescription
Debug ModeTurn this mode on to print out debugging information to the server log.
