Forms is an application for digitizing process flows. Examples can be creating users (e.g. employees, consultants, partners), editing users or listing "my users" or "my groups". With Forms you get access to a tool to create web-based flows to delegate the administration to the users responsible for certain information in a simple way.

With Forms, you can also build self-service flows and self-registration of users. In case of self-registration, a user proves himself with e.g. BankID where information is extracted and used to allow the user to create their own account.

We have a number of movies on how to work with forms in different scenarios. (note. All movies are in Swedish.)

• Microsoft Entra ID accounts

• Self registration of accounts

Fortified ID Automate

Automation provides the ability to read data from one or more systems, change or influence the data and then write it to one or more source systems. Examples could be reading data from an HR system and looking for newly created users, reading in these users and creating them in, for example, Active Directory, Google or Microsoft Entra ID. All without the influence of an administration or user.

Fortified ID Attest

Attest adds for Forms and Automation the ability to bring in approval flows. Instead of a user being created/changed directly, one or more users must approve this change.

An example could be requesting access to a group that protects a resource where, for example, a group administrator/owner must approve who gets access to the resource.

The solution can be installed locally, in the cloud or as a hybrid solution. The ability to easily move the solution between test and production environments has been made extremely easy. Read more about automation in our technical documentation.

Fortified ID Password Reset

Password Reset from Fortified ID simplifies the management of secure password reset for your organization.

Users can easily and securely create a new password through self-service without having to contact their employer's IT support.

Users with personnel responsibility (manager, teacher, partner/consultant manager) can reset passwords on behalf of another user.

Your organization becomes more efficient as the time that the end user does not have access can be greatly shortened. In addition, IT personnel can also devote themselves to more constructive and proactive work.

Forms is a comprehensive Identity and Access Management (IAM) solution designed to streamline and adapt to the specific workflows of your organisation.

The modern landscape of IAM requires a balance between automation and control, and Forms offers both in a way that aligns with your internal processes. IAM solutions today need to be flexible enough to manage the complexity of access control across an organisation, especially as digital environments become more intricate and regulated. Forms IAM addresses this by providing customisable workflows that can be fully automated or augmented with manual checkpoints, ensuring both efficiency and accuracy. This flexibility is crucial in industries with stringent compliance requirements, where every access decision needs to be carefully monitored and validated. Forms IAM is available both on-premises and in the cloud, giving you the flexibility to deploy the solution in the environment that best suits your infrastructure and security requirements. Whether you are looking to maintain full control over your data in an on-prem deployment or leverage the scalability and convenience of the cloud, Forms IAM adapts to your strategy.

Additionally, Forms IAM integrates seamlessly with a wide range of common identity providers and data sources, including Entra ID (formerly Azure Active Directory), Google Cloud Identity, Microsoft Azure, Active Directory, and other leading platforms. This ensures that you can easily manage and centralise access controls across your existing ecosystems, without the need for complex custom integrations. The system allows administrators to configure workflows to match existing processes within the company. Whether it’s handling new employee onboarding, access revocation, or ongoing entitlement reviews, each flow can be automated for speed or include manual approval steps for sensitive actions. This adaptability ensures that the solution integrates seamlessly with your organisation’s existing protocols, rather than forcing a rigid, predefined process onto your teams. With scalable operations, capable of managing identity and access across both small businesses and large enterprises, Forms IAM can evolve alongside your organisation as it grows or its requirements change. In today’s rapidly evolving security environment, having a robust yet flexible IAM system like Forms ensures that your organisation can handle access control efficiently while maintaining the level of precision and oversight necessary for security and compliance.

How it is connected

In order for authentication to work, a SAML SP authenticator needs to be configured. Also, SAML SP need to share first part of URI in with Forms module.

Example

Forms module has "http_context" configured to "/forms". The SAML must have it's "http_context" set to "/forms/xxx" ("/forms/auth" is a good pattern).

Typically the properties regarding authentication in Forms module will look something like this:

"http_context": "/forms",
"http_auth_redirect_url": "/forms/authn/login",

On the SAML SP side configuration will look like this:

"http_context": "/forms/authn",
"success_location": "/forms/",

Once the user is authenticated data from incoming assertion vill be transfered to the session.

NameID vill be the users login identifier. Other attributes will be put in the session where multivalued attributes is merged into a comma separated list.

Filtering access to a Flow

Once authenticated all users by default can access a Flow. Restricting is based on roles attribute in the incoming assertion. By using the "requires_role" configuration parameter on the Flow restriction control is performed comparing the incoming "roles" in the assertion and data in "requires_role" for the Flow.

One value of "role" must match "requires_role" in order for user getting access.

Overview of Flow, Step, Control and Pipes

Flow

On a high level, Forms delivers well defined "apps" with the soul purpose simplifying a process related to an "IAM-problem". Each app is called a Flow. A Flow have a set of basic properties. For example who may access, is it public, how do it consume authentication.

Step

Flow consists of a number of Steps. Each Step aims to guide the end user through the process. A simple Step could just consists of read only data about a user or a group.

Control

Every Step includes a number of Controls. A Control is some kind graphical entity used to let users read or write data. Just like a Flow or a Step a Control has a number of properties that will define it's behaviour.

By combining Flow, Step & Control small well-defined IAM apps can be built fast with instant added value.

Pipes

When a user wants to do something in the UI, such as retrieve or write data to a data source or process data, a pipe can be used. A pipe consists of a number of valves that can retrieve, write or process data. Pipes and valves are something that is found in all Fortified ID products and are shared between the products, so if you have knowledge of this from one of our other products, it works the same in Forms.

All steps and summary pages use a layout grid with a base column width of 12. All controls, or children, can be specified to have different sizes and multiple breakpoints for different screen sizes.

All controls (or children of the grid) have a base width of 12, meaning that they fill the entire width of the grid. A child with the width of 6 will occupies half of the grid, a child with the width of 8 will occupy 2/3s of the grid.

The grid will fill its columns from left to right and fit up to 12 columns in each "row".

Sizes for the controls can be set in the ui [SKRIV HÄR, måste kanske ändra en grej i hur man konfar kommer jag på nu.]

All controls will be rendered into the layout according to the order that they are defined.

Each breakpoint (a key) matches with a fixed screen width (a value):

• xs, extra-small: 0px

• sm, small: 600px

• md, medium: 900px

• lg, large: 1200px

• xl, extra-large: 1536px

Advanced layouts

For more advanced layout options you can also configure a "ui:grid" property on the ui for the step.

Using the "ui:grid" all other rendering will be bypassed, and only items found in the "ui:grid" will be rendered.

With "ui:grid" it is also possible to nest grids.

    "ui": {
      "ui:grid": {
        "spacing": 3,
        "items": [
          {
            "size": 12,
            "spacing": 2,
            "items": [
              {
                "size": { "xs": 12, "sm": 6 },
                "spacing": 3,
                "items": [{ "item": "firstName" }, { "item": "lastName" }]
              },
              {
                "size": { "xs": 12, "sm": 6 },
                "items": [{ "item": "helpText" }]
              }
            ]
          },
          {
            "items": [
              { "size": 8, "item": "address" },
              { "size": 4, "item": "postalCode" }
            ]
          }
        ]
      }
    }

Setting up a flow

The Flow is defined by a JSON file. Name of the file can be anything, but flow.json is a recommended name. Format of the data inside must be either JSON or JSONC. The flow.json file will be picked up, loaded and exposed by the Forms module.

{
    "name": "demo",
    "public": false,
    "require_roles": [
        "role00"
    ],
    "enable_progressbar": false,
    "show_user_menu": true,
    "verbose_logs": [
        "flow",
        "session"
    ],
    "buttons": {
        "next_button": {
            "enabled": true,
            "text": "flow00.next_button"
        },
        "save_button": {
            "enabled": true,
            "text": "flow00.create_button"
        },
        "restart_button": {
            "enabled": true,
            "text": "flow00.restart_button"
        }
    },
    "steps": "@include:steps/*.json",
    "pre_pipe": "forms.flow00.pre_pipe",
    "pipe": "forms.flow00.finalize",
    "incomplete": "@include:incomplete.json",
    "summary": "@include:steps/summary.json"
}

Before step 1

Sometimes it is necessary to perform some kind of logic before first step is rendered. Typically used for validation and or collecting data reqired in step 1.

For case like this use pre_pipe.

In order to consume data in subsequent steps, make sure the pipe returns one item. Data in this item will be accessible using {{flow.xxx}}

Control types

Two categories of controls are available:

• Basic

• Advanced.

Basic controls are comparable to simple HTML inputs, such as checkboxes.

Advanced controls are more like mini-applications with specific goals. For example, they could display a list of Entra-ID users or groups as the first step in a Flow.

Both types are implemented on the front-end using .

Structure of control configuration

All controls follow the same structure:

{
    "type": "<controlType>",
    "id": "<controlId>",
    "config": {
        "required": true,
        "read_only": false
    },
    "data": "<data>",
    "ui": {},
    "schema": {}
}

type: Defines what control to be used.

id: Unique identifier to the current flow. In subsequent pipe calls the id is sent to the pipe along with value(s) from the control and accessed in the piped using {{request.<id>}}

config: Block of control-specific configuration. Se each control for appropriate values.

data: Value to be injected in control.

schema: Any additional control-related data not available in current control implementation.

Binding data to a control

Data binding is typically done using "data" configuration for a control. Most likely date is set by using some template {{flow.givenName}}.

Creating a step

A step is represented by a json object. Steps can be loaded from one json file or multiple files. Recommended setup is to keep each step in a single file. This will simplify configuration and overview.

{
    "controls": [
        {
            "id": "top_text_label",
            "type": "Markdown",
            "data": "# Create an Active Directory user \nEnter information about the user you want to create."
        },

Pipe execution

If configured, execution of a pipe is done with all data available to the step. This means data will vary depending on what step is executed.

Data from all previous executed steps will be sent to pipe and accessed in pipes using {{request. pattern.

Returning from pipe execution

In order to be able to access any data returned from a pipe, return a single item in a pipe.

Data will available using {{flow.xxx}} pattern.

Below is a screenshot of the control. This is from a create step where an admin has added Clarke and Kent in two input controls. Email and Mobile number has no value yet.

Scenarions when the control can be used:

• Like above when an admin creates a new object and needs to add data about the object. You can add data controllers to an inout control to verify correct syntax, an @ for email adress, no characters for an mobile number.

• You like to display data about an object. You search an LDAP directory and display a user with data about the user. The input control can be in edit or read-only mode.

The ValuePicker is often used as a drop-down list for admins to select predefined values from. See example below.

The configuration is divided in four blocks, config, ui, schema & data where each block has its own tab below.

See the Example tabs for a full examples.

Special notes for config.type and schema.format properties

The 'config.type' determines how the control is displayed in the view.

For the type 'string' the field can be validated before it is sent to the pipe or next step. The 'strict' validation is recommended as it blocks several common special characters not suitable for Pipe/Valve data handling. Postal is post address.

Use this control to manage groups for a selected user. Note. To select the user, which often is done in a previous step, use the control Selector.

Searching for object to show

To populate list of items in UI a pipe must be executed. List of items returned should at least contain properties defined in columns.

Data sent to pipe is:

• search - containing user input if config -> search is set to true

• columns - comma separated string of defined columns

Return data must be in a form of a list of items.

Data exposed to flow

When pressing Select, data exposed to flow is found using key if control id. Value is item id returned from pipe

Only showing groups by end user

Set owned_groups_only_attribute will cause control match the data from owned_groups_only_attribute. Matching is done using data from owned_groups_only_attribute and entra_identifier.

entra_identifier is read from session or flow. Session read first then flow.

Settings "owned_groups_only_attribute":"owner", will match value from entra_identifier with id in "owner". Only showing groups where user is set to owner.

Overview

Certain operations or flows may be deemed sensitive or require additional oversight before proceeding. This is where attestation might come in handy.

Attestation lets you define manual oversight be one ore persons before any kind of automation is performed.

Attestation is a flow and defined using built in functionality.

Attestors are notified via email, with the relevant data for verification packaged in a PDF file. Each PDF is tailored specifically for its respective flow, making the information clear, accessible, and easy to review. After a flow is successfully attested, the PDF document can be sent to an external archiving system for secure, long-term storage. This process ensures that all documentation is systematically preserved and readily available for future reference or audits.

Please refer to the common configuration of for information on how to change the look and feel of Forms.

Prerequisites

WorkOrder module deployed.

Create a flow used for attestation (accept/reject) using Attestor control.

Flow description

Configure last PIPE sending data to work order database and possible notifying user.

Configure one accept pipe to be executed once the work order is attested

Configure one reject pipe to be executed if order is rejected

Sending data to work order

Instead of performing updates directly, data used must be send to work-order database. Two thing are required for this:

• A PDF file used to visualise what is about to happen if accepted. Either use Html2Pdf valve for dynamic creation or use a static PDF file.

• In the last PIPE in the flow use

Accepting a work order

Once all attesters accepted the work order, accept pipe will be executed. Any flow data from order creation is present along with additional static data.

Accessing data sent from "work flow accept" is done using pattern {{request.xxx}}

Note that the accept pipe is executed in system context. No session with user data will be present.

Rejecting a work order

It only takes one attester to reject for the order to be rejected. Once rejected the reject pipe is executed. Here you can configure notification if desired.
