Is there any option to take photo inside of Configurable List?

    Hi guys,

    I'm trying to build a "defects inspection form" for real estate, where property buyers inspect their new property to check for potential defects, and they can submit a report.

    I've come across the "Configurable List" which is ideal for this as you add as many entries you need, do you know if for each entry I can add the function "take photo"?

    Each 'defect entry' needs to have an image as proof, so I was wondering if that's possible.

    Please review the sample form I've created here https://form.jotform.co/81960821709866

    I hope it makes sense. Thanks!

    I don't think it's possible to add Take Photo Widget within a configurable list. I may have a workaround for you which you can try.

    Add a dropdown field to select the number of defects users wants to enter.

    Choose 3 different fields to capture the defect details -

    1. Radio button, to select Zone

    2. Text area to capture the defect details

    3. Take Photo Widget to capture the photograph

    The above three fields will capture the data for a single defect. If you want to capture 5 defects at the maximum, duplicate the above 3 fields 5 times in their order. 

    The number of records appears on the page will depend on the dropdown field value. This can be achieved by using Show or Hide multiple fields conditional logic.

    If a user selects 1 defect, he will only see the first 3 fields to enter Defect 1 data, including a photo. 


    Depending on the number of defects a user wants to enter he can choose the dropdown value and then the respective fields will appear on the form.

    I have created a sample form which you can clone: https://form.jotform.me/81961321297460

    Let me know if this works for you?

    Hello,

    Unfortunately, there is no option to include custom fields at Configurable List widget. You can review available elements here: How-to-Set-Up-the-Configurable-List-Widget.

    As per @aapatil's advice, you could create sections for every defect entry with Take Photo option and apply some kind of conditional logic to it. Also, I can suggest to take a look at Section Collapse form element, which could be also of help on the form you are developing: 

    Show-or-Hide-Multiple-Fields-at-Once-Using-the-Section-Collapse-Field

    Please let us know if you need more help.

    Thank you.

    Hi!

     

    Thanks for your quick response. As people will be with an ipad on the spot they can't anticipate how many defects they are going to submit. What I'll do maybe is to have one defect per page, and when people have finish they can skip directly to the last page with the submit button.

    Cheers,
