Per-populating Forms After Submission

Hi,

I am trying to create an approval work flow where I want the following to happen: 

1. The submitter fills out the form, which is then mailed to the next person in the approval chain (a Regional Manager). During this stage, a Regional Manager "approval" section is hidden at the bottom of the form. 

2. The notification received by the Regional Manager includes a link at the bottom of their notification email that takes them to the submitted form, which has the bottom "approval" section unhidden. 

I am having a hard time unhiding the approval section for the Regional Manager. I have a conditional set that unhides the section when the element "RM_Version" is equal to "YES", but I am having a hard time pre-populating this form from the edit submission link that arives in the email notification.

In the notification, I am using this link: https://www.jotform.com/edit/{id}?rm_version=YES 

Is there a way for me to prepopulate a form that has already been submitted? Or is there another way for me to unhide the section without resorting to pre-populating a field?

Here is my form: https://form.jotform.com/91358576942167

Thank you for your help.

Unfortunately it is currently not possible to populate form fields with URL parameters while you are editing submissions.

One way to achieve your requirement is by adding "Get Form Page URL" widget in form. You can add a condition in form to check if the submission is being edited by check if the widget contains "edit", and then show or hide the specific question.

Hope this helps.

Do try it out and get back to us if you have any questions.

Yes, that worked. Thank you for your help.
