FORMS - Allow custom values to be updated with forms
planned
O
Onno Vrijburg
Currently, there seems to be 2 ways to update custom values, go to settings > custom values and "hack away" or build a form somewhere else and use Zapier/Make to update custom values through the API. I would like to suggest that GHL add the custom values to the form editor to allow us to create a form that will allow us to edit custom values in a slightly more controlled way. So allow a form created in an account to update the custom values for that account, that is my ask.

TL;DR: AKA, the text box just displays the Custom Variable. The user replaces that text. It changes the variable. Don't make this overly complicated. Thank you!
Need this so that when I onboard a new Non Tech business owner, they can fill out a form, and then my custom FAQ page is populated with their answers from a field. I then would store their Sub account Custom Values with things like embedded maps, common directions, business hours, what they do, an about us info to create a one page automagically because I have the page but am using Custom Values to populate it. However, asking a busy non tech person to fill out Custom Values is not ideal. Having a form works! They follow the form instructions and the fields would populate the custom values set by me. Now they have a new page with their data and I can train the AI bot based on their answers to a form. Fast win. But need the custom variables to be populated. Hope this sells the why for this past due, stupid easy feature update. Just offer custom variable to the form as a text box so they can over ride the current value which is a "placeholder". AKA, the text box just displays the Custom Variable. The user replaces that text. It changes the variable. Don't make this overly complicated. Thank you!

Let's Go, this is would allow us to create our own Onboarding and having our clients fill in their information which will automatically update their custom values. This would be a game changer for SURE!

When the form updates the custom field and is submitted, have an automation with form submitted as a trigger then straight after have a ‘update custom value’. Update the custom value with the new custom field. Simple!

I think this is the same (but I may be wrong)…
