Opening Axiom forms using the Axiom Web Client

Users can open their Axiom forms using the Axiom Web Client in a browser. The following is an overview of how this access works.

Using a form home page to access other forms

If users have a form-enabled home page, they will automatically see this form when they log into the Web Client. This form can be set up with links to other Axiom forms so that users can access the forms they need.

Using the Navigation panel to access forms

When users are in the Web Client, they can access other forms by using links in the Navigation panel. By default, this panel contains links to all of the form-enabled files within the Reports Library that the user has access to. You can optionally customize the contents of this panel to display different links, or to organize the links differently.

The Navigation panel can also display links that are relevant to the current form only, so that these links only display when the user has the form open.

Use of the Navigation panel can reduce or eliminate the need to include links within your forms. This can free up content space within forms, and also make it easier to maintain links.

For more information on setting up the Navigation panel, see Defining content for the Web Client Navigation panel.

Browsing available forms

In the Web Client, users can use the Forms Explorer page to browse and open their available forms. By default, the Navigation panel contains a link to this page. Users can also access this page using the following URL:

This Forms Explorer page displays a list of all form-enabled files that the user has permission to access, located within My Documents, the Reports Library, or file groups. Users can browse by folder, or they can use the search box to find a specific form.
