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

Certified Associate Developer

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, thank you for your advise,

    1. I have checked submit and validate for the button. (no configuration made to ignore or skip validation)

    2. There is no validation group made so every validation should be catched by the button.

    --sample code--

    {
    a!columnsLayout(
    columns: {
    a!columnLayout(
    contents: {
    a!gridLayout(
    label: "Sample Editable Grid",
    labelPosition: "ABOVE",
    headerCells: {
    a!gridLayoutHeaderCell(label: "ItemId"),
    a!gridLayoutHeaderCell(label: "ItemType"),
    a!gridLayoutHeaderCell(label: "ItemSize")
    },
    columnConfigs: {},
    rows: {
    a!forEach(
    items: ri!itemData,
    expression: {
    a!gridRowLayout(
    contents: {
    a!textField(
    label: "Text",
    labelPosition: "ABOVE",
    value: fv!item,
    saveInto: fv!item,
    refreshAfter: "UNFOCUS",
    required: true,
    validations: {}
    ),
    a!textField(
    label: "Text",
    labelPosition: "ABOVE",
    /*value: fv!item,*/
    /*saveInto: fv!item,*/
    refreshAfter: "UNFOCUS",
    required: true,
    validations: {}
    ),
    a!textField(
    label: "Text",
    labelPosition: "ABOVE",
    /*value: fv!item,*/
    /*saveInto: fv!item,*/
    refreshAfter: "UNFOCUS",
    required: true,
    validations: {}
    )
    }
    )
    }
    )

    },
    selectionSaveInto: {},
    validations: {},
    shadeAlternateRows: true
    )
    }
    )
    }
    ),
    a!columnsLayout(
    columns: {
    a!columnLayout(
    contents: {}
    ),
    a!columnLayout(
    contents: {}
    ),
    a!columnLayout(
    contents: {
    a!buttonArrayLayout(
    buttons: {
    a!buttonWidget(
    label: "Button",
    submit: true,
    style: "NORMAL",
    validate: true
    )
    },
    align: "END"
    )
    }
    )
    }
    )
    }

    when testing on interface it works fine

    but with in site page

    the required validation doesn't work

    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.

    Hi,

    I am using the interface inside the record type summary. 

    I guess this has the same effect as using it in the report .

    Still hope there is some way to use validation work.

    Thank you.
