How to get inserted FormField name.

[Yogesh]

Hi Syncfusion Team,

we are using Document Editor Control.

In that when I insert FormField by this method

--> this.editorObj.documentEditor.editor.insertFormField('Text');

it doesn't return the name of that field which I need to use "Text1" as parameter.  

--> this.editorObj.documentEditor.getFormFieldInfo('Text1') as TextFormFieldInfo;

And this is definitely not good practice because if Text1 is present already then we have to fetch FormFieldInfo with Text2 name(parameter).

here is what I am doing,

so is there any method so I can get inserted field info on the insertion of FormField?

And one more question can I get "this.editorObj.documentEditor.getFormFieldNames()" by page number.

Hi Yogesh,

How to get inserted FormField name	Please refer to the UG documentation. https://ej2.syncfusion.com/angular/documentation/document-editor/form-fields#export-form-field-data
get "this.editorObj.documentEditor.getFormFieldNames()" by page number.	When we insert form field, bookmark is added to the inserted form field and we have Api to select a bookmark based on the  bookmark name, also we have property to get page number. Code snippet: container.documentEditor.selection.selectBookmark('Text2'); container.documentEditor.selection.startPage   sample - 1jqn3s (forked) - StackBlitz
