Board

With Kissflow Boards, you can create highly adaptable workflows that let you keep track of information and manage work efficiently.

Get board instance using getBoard method from app’s interface.

Parameters

Parameters	type
caseId	String

Syntax

const boardInstance = kf.app.getBoard("case_id");

Import CSV

Launches the import CSV modal, where you can upload a CSV file and map its columns to the corresponding fields.

Parameters

Parameters	type	Description
defaultValues	Object	Object with keys as field Id and its values in respective data types

Syntax

let defaultValues = { fieldId: "value" };
boardInstance.importCSV(defaultValues);

Example scenario

Consider a scenario where certain fields are not visible to the user (hidden in form visibility). In that case, default values can be used to populate data in these hidden fields.

// Get the board with the board's flow_id
const boardInstance = kf.app.getBoard("Asset_Tracking_A00"); // Asset_Tracking_A00 is the flow_id

// Set field values for specific fields of the board
let boardInstance = { location: "India" }; // Location is the the field_id of a field inside the board

// Pass the field config into the import sdk method
boardInstance.importCSV(defaultValues); // All records imported through this importer would have Location field set as India

Note:

1. Default values are optional
2. Any variables or parameter can also be mapped in defaultValues.
3. If a default value is set by the developer, end users cannot override it.
4. Certain fields cannot be set as default, such as auto-calculated fields and sequence numbers.
