Is there some circumstances that required doesn't work on the textfield of interface?

Question

Hello,

I placed text field in the editable grid and applied required function. When testing in the interface, the required function is well applied after clicking on submit button. However, requried function does not apply when testing in the site page. 
 Are there specific conditions for required function to be applied on the site as well? 
 Could it be because I tried to use the required function in the record's summary? 
 Thank you.

It's possible that you have configured the button to ignore or skip validation. It's possible that your input and the submit button are not in the same validation group. Check these first and then we'll continue trying to isolate the problem (if that's not it).

Hi, 
 Are you using this interface inside report and calling that report in your site? If yes, in this case the validation won't work since this interface consider as a report.

Yes. Let's think about what submit does. It continues the process on to the next node. Well, this isn't even in a process. There's nothing for the submit to achieve. 
 This is a summary. It's supposed to be a read-only form. What are user inputs doing on a summary? They can't be saved; they can't update the record or do any kind of work. I would take what you have and try rigging it as a related action, then see if the inputs respond correctly.
