 Hi all

I have an IP 2010 filler form which I have published to a SharePoint 2010 library.  I enabled the Submit button for my form, and if at all possible, I would like to have the completed .xml document submitted back to the publish location of my form template.  Per one of the articles on this site, I have set my Submit options to use a rule, and my rule submits to a Sharepoint Document library.  There's a better than average chance that my problem is that I've never done this before and don't know what I'm doing (or if I what I want to do is even possible), but when I run through a test submittal of my form, I don't see my submitted form anywhere, only the original published template.

The full URL of my publish location is https://sharepoint.sandia.gov/sites/ITSM/Tool/Testing/Forms/AllItems.aspx?RootFolder=%2Fsites%2FITSM%2FTool%2FTesting%2FFoundation&FolderCTID=0x012000A8FFC4ECC87B9045BC74417F4BBB8777&View={4D423FBB-0D10-4327-95C2-3FB8B15D0D8B}, and I have set this same location to be the Document Location URL in my Submit connection.  If it makes a difference, the actual library is called Testing - this location (a folder called Foundation) is one level down in the Testing library.

Does anyone have any ideas why I'm not seeing my submitted forms?  Is it even possible to post the completed .xml filler form back to SharePoint?

Thanks,

Hi - a SharePoint submit connection will submit the form's XML to the library in the submit connection. https://sharepoint.sandia.gov/sites/ITSM/Tool/Testing/Foundation is the location you are submitting to? Can you walk through your submit data connection again and verify that?

Hilary:

Yes, that's the location I want to submit to.

 The name of my data connection is called SharePoint Library Submit, which was the default.

 My exact Document Library URL is https://sharepoint.sandia.gov/sites/ITSM/Tool/Testing/Forms/AllItems.aspx?RootFolder=%2Fsites%2FITSM%2FTool%2FTesting%2FFoundation&FolderCTID=0x012000A8FFC4ECC87B9045BC74417F4BBB8777&View=%7b4D423FBB-0D10-4327-95C2-3FB8B15D0D8B%7d/ and the default file name is concat("Test Plan for ", txtCustName, " - ", txtSGpName, " - ", rtxtReqSummary), which comes from fields in my form.  Allow Overwrite if File Exists is turned off, and the option to make this the default submit connection is also turned off.

I notice that if I set the submit options to Rules, if I save and republish the form, it changes from Perform Custom Action Using Rules to Send Form Data to a Single Destination with SharePoint Document Library being specified, and the data connection listed as SharePoint Library Submit.  Since it's the only place I'm submitting to, I guess that's okay.

Should I change the Document Library URL to the standard one, like you typed, instead of the weird SharePoint one?

What I'm trying to say is that I think the Document Library URL in your SharePoint submit connection is incorrect. You should use the actual library URL, like the one I posted - not the weird SharePoint one. :)

 That did it - thanks much, Hilary!  :)
