Field events allow you to create events with your form fields using Kissflow's Low-code SDK reference and minimal JavaScript code. This allows the form fields to trigger event-based actions. As a form developer, you can add events to both basic and advanced fields in process forms, board forms, and data forms within apps.
Accessing events in forms
- Sign into Kissflow.
- Open your process, board, or dataform.
- Select a field to which you want to add an event.
- Click Events found below visibility.

- Type in your event actions in the console
- Click Save.
Note
Events for form fields can be triggered only using Kissflow’s Low-code SDK reference, which is available on GitHub.
