17 TopicsDefault Form Missing - Stuck With InfoPath option
Hi All, I'm wondering if anyone has seen this issue and knows of a fix. I had an InfoPath form ties to a list and would now like to remove it and use the built in/default form. The problem is I do not have that option in Form Settings anymore. The default has now become the InfoPath option! I no longer have InfoPath installed I attempted to save the site as a template and reopen in a new site to disassociate (did not work) I have see the Site Collection option to Deactivate but seems like I may loose the associated list items (which is a dealbreaker) Any help is much appreciated!2.3KViews0likes3CommentsFormatting Issue Upon Opening of InfoPath Form
I recently encountered a formatting issue when I open a form. The formatting looks unattractive and the size of the objects are smaller in length plus some text moves to next row. I recently changed laptops which is why I am seeing this issue. I checked with my other colleagues who are using the old laptop and the issue is not present there. Any assistance would be appreciated!583Views0likes0CommentsHow can I connect InfoPath?
I want to edit the SharePoint form via InfoPath. How can I connect InfoPath? IE is already ended. I tried to open InfoPath via Edge and Chrome. But there is a message like "Internet Explorer is required to use this feature.". I also tried to open via InfoPath directly. But there is no connection to any forms. Do you have any idea?1.1KViews0likes1CommentInfoPath form submit options
Hi Everyone, I am a newbie to SharePoint and InfoPath forms. I recently added an email address to InfoPath form in particular stage for notifications through submit options. I saved and published the form. Does it effect all the forms which were submitted in the past or just the new ones which will be created. The user is not receiving email notifications. However, the form was created couple of months ago and it got to her stage just recently. Thanks1.4KViews0likes3CommentsInfopath replacement - PowerApps to Customise Sharepoint list - Licensing
Hi, for many years we have been using Infopath to "front-end" our Sharepoint lists (where a bit more intelligence/styling was needed on the form rather than using the basic Sharepoint list form). With the upcoming demise of infopath we are looking to replace this functionality by using the "Integrate/PowerApps/Customize forms" option that has now appeared on the top link bar on Sharepoint lists. However it seems like a PowerApps license is now required to do this. While we fully accept this for developing and building the forms themselves, our end users do not need the full capabilities of the PowerApps license to build and develop themselves. They only need to be able to use the form to enter the Sharepoint list data where they already have access to the list. What options are available re our end users and licensing, they did not need anything extra to use the infopath forms?Solved2KViews0likes2CommentsInfoPath replacement in SharePoint 2016
We are in process of migration from SharePoint 2010 to SharePoint 2016. In our environment we have a lot of InfoPath forms. I know we can migrate the InfoPath forms from SharePoint 2010 to SharePoint 2013 and then to 2016. Given that InfoPath will be deprecated, we don't want users to create more InfoPath forms as this will be difficult for any future migrations. Are there any alternative in SharePoint 2016 from Microsoft for InfoPath forms? We would avoid using third party tools. Thanks in advance for your help!Solved26KViews0likes11CommentsIn SharePoint Online, double-clicking on list item displays XML instead of opening InfoPath
In SharePoint Online, we have a list using InfoPath forms. This was working fine until 2 days ago. Now, if a user double-clicks on a row, instead of opening as an InfoPath form, it displays the xml. Sometimes it display xml, sometimes it says "Hmm.. looks like this file doesn't have a preview we can show you." Microsoft Edge displays xml. Chrome displays xml. Internet Explorer spins. If a user right-clicks on the item and click Edit in Browser, the InfoPath form opens as expected. If we create a new view of the list with Name (linked to document with edit menu) and click on Name, it opens as an InfoPath form. Has anyone else run into this issue? Is this a way to control what happens when a user double-clicks on a row in a SharePoint list?2.6KViews0likes1CommentSoapServerException error when customizing list form (SPO and SP-onprem) using InfoPath designer

Okay so I think I have a major problem but I'm looking for some advice here. I was asked to migrate our SharePoint 2010 migration to SharePoint 2016. In these sites, there are InfoPath forms (designed with 2013) that need to be migrated. I exported these via lists and imported via lists as I was not permitted to use a migration tool. Now I have a problem. Each one of these forms are linked to our old web server (now offline) still. I went into the manifest file an updated the URLs to point to the lists where I imported all of the data from the old 2010 web server. While the URLs are correct, when I go to publish I am getting an error stating that the library doesn't exist. I assume this is due to the fact that when I imported all of the old data, I did it to a list not a library (no other choice). Now what? There are thousands of old infopath form "documents" so downloading individually was not ideal. We do have the originals still on the discontinued web server, but I'd like to avoid downloading and uploading to the newly published form (if at all possible). To clarify: Yes I did update all of the URLS and associated list GUIDs for my data connections the updated new URLS are pointing to the correct site collection I could not migrate from 2010 to 2013 first, this was a manual migration of everything from 2010 to 2016 I referenced https://blogs.perficient.com/2013/03/06/infopath-and-sharepoint-2013-upgrading-your-forms/ and https://www.c5insight.com/Resources/Blog/tabid/148/entryid/613/how-to-migrate-a-sharepoint-2010-infopath-list-form-to-sharepoint-2013-or-sharepoint-online.aspx for my process of how to properly migrate. Please help so I don't have to go back and download each one of these forms again.1.4KViews0likes1Comment
