Autocomplete data on web pages

Good afternoon everyone, first thanks for your help.

A while ago looking at other publications I saw that you could autocomplete information in Google calendars from the application as an example with the following link

https://www.google.com/calendar/render?action=TEMPLATE&text= 8

My question is the following, would it be possible to perform this same action on other web pages?

For example I would like to complete the user field on the following page

https://smallworldfs.litmos.com/account/forgot

I have tried following the same example of the Google calendar but I can’t get it.

I greatly appreciate your help.
Cheers.

What has this to do with AppSheet?

Filling out a webform Questions

Here’s a trick you can sometimes use for situations like this. Right-click , inspect element, get the form input element’s id value, add it into the URL with a ā€œ?ā€ and assign it a value. However it didn’t work, meaning they don’t have the javascript necessary to pre-fill form elements via url parameters, so you might be out of luck there, unless GreenFlux’s suggestion of contacting them directly comes up with anything.

Hi Steven, what I’m trying to do is autocomplete the user field from appsheet, in my application I implemented autocompletion in the google calendar a while ago, and I was wondering if this is possible as with the google calendar on other websites.

Thank you very much for the help you can give me

Convert DEEPLINKS to Full/External URLs for Use in PDFs/Emails or Pre-Filled Form Links Tips & Tricks ?

DEEPLINK expressions like LINKTOFORM() return a ā€˜deeplink’ to an app view, but not a full browser URL. These links won’t work in an email or PDF. They only navigate within/between AppSheet apps. I needed a way to generate full-URLs for use in an email body, and take values from a row in a secure app to generate pre-filled links to a form in a public app. Basically, LINKTOFORM(Pre-filled values) but with a valid, full-URL that could be used in an email. I’ve broken the formulas down into sep…

Hola, Marc_dillon, Thank you very much for the help, I have tried to perform this action but it does not work.

Well, that doesn’t look legitimate at all.

Thank you very much Steve.

Not possible in AppSheet. You will need to write an external function (linked via action or webhook) that uses browser automation (like selenium or puppeteer) to achieve this.
