String widget non empty validation

Hello

I am developing a DataApp where a form must be filled out whose fields cannot be empty. How do I make the flow does not continue until all the fields are filled? Mainly String Widgets and Autocomplete Text Widgets?

I am also iterating the interface to fill the form as many times as necessary.

Thanks

Hello @lsandinoIQ
I’m just brainstorming, but I guess you can create a variable saying -IF any of this fields is blank THEN “bottom” ELSE “top”- and then use it in an ‘IF Switch’ node.

In the upper port you can connect the collecting success case workflow. And the lower carries to a twin dashboard with alternative warnings on it.

Be aware of locating the refresh button after the collecting data widgets, so the user doesn’t need to restart infilling the form.

Hi @gonhaddock
It usually works great but when I have to iterate the interface that solution doesn’t work. When you go to the warning view and try to go back to fill the blanks, the workflow restart the loop and you lose the information collected by the loop.

This is a view of my workflow at the moment

What I think I’m looking for is a way to validate the targets before exiting the iteration.

Thanks
