1 Introduction

It is possible, within strict controls, to add, edit and interact with records stored inside bxp from outside bxp.

Please ensure that you understand the options and security ramifications of your choices before changing options in this section

Note that the Form default option is to prevent external access

Your form can only be accessed through functions in the bxp API bxp_API

2 Enabling external access

In order to enable bxp API access to your form.

Main Menu > Form Management > Form - Primary Management > Form - Advanced Settings > Choose your form > External

Externally available: Private means no bxp API access. Public means bxp API access. Public access still requires a user account that has been IP restricted and granted access to the form to work.

Public Outcome: When a record is logged from externally an Outcome can be triggered. If the outcome has communications these too will be performed. MetaData and other systems integrations functions will also operate.

Enable Offline usage: This option allows a form to be used where no internet connection exists. For more information please review Using_Forms_Offline

Allow External CCL file download: When a file is attached to the Contact History of a record in a form, that file is not available externally for hosting abuse reasons. This option enables the external access of files that are attached to CDAs.
