BiznextApp SharePoint Forms — User & administrator manual

1. What this web part does

• Design forms in the browser (drag-and-drop builder, optional AI assistance where configured).
• Connect each form to a SharePoint list or document library.
• Submit and edit items through a modern form UI (including libraries that use documents).
• Runs in SharePoint pages, full-page apps, and Microsoft Teams (tab / personal app), subject to your tenant setup.

2. Deployment overview (tenant / farm administrators)

• Build or obtain the SharePoint solution package (.sppkg) for BiznextApp Forms.
• Upload it to your organization’s App Catalog and deploy as usual for SPFx solutions.
• Site owners add the app to each site collection that should use the web part.

3. First use on a site (provisioning artefacts)

Before forms can be stored and listed, the web part creates hidden SharePoint lists on the site (if they do not already exist):

Who can provision

Users with Manage Web permission on the site (typically site owners) see Install necessary form artefacts on first run. Select it once to create or verify these lists.

After installation

• A success or informational message may appear.
• Available Forms appears once provisioning has completed and the app has confirmed the lists exist.

4. Roles inside the web part

The web part distinguishes capabilities using SharePoint permissions:

Users without these permissions can still open forms they are allowed to use if you share the right links or pages; they may not see the full toolbar.

5. Web part properties (edit page → web part)

• Description — Appears as the web part’s description; you can use it for page authoring notes.
• Advanced connection settings (for example AI API or license server URL) may be hidden in your build. When shown, they are optional and intended for administrators; empty values use product defaults where applicable.

6. License notice

If your organization uses the license service, an unlicensed or invalid site may show a License banner with a short explanation and a link to purchase or resolve licensing. Until the license is valid, the main experience may be blocked or dimmed according to your deployment.

7. Working with forms

7.1 Available Forms

After artefacts are installed, the Available Forms grid lists form definitions from BiznextAppForms. From each row you can typically:

• Open the form builder to edit design.
• Create a new item or open list/document views depending on configuration.
• Use the row context menu for actions such as copying links (for example a link to the items view for that form).

7.2 Designing a form (admins)

• Choose Design New Form (when you have rights and artefacts are installed).
• Pick or create the target SharePoint list or library.
• Add controls from the toolbox, map fields to columns, and save.

Forms can target both generic lists and document libraries; libraries may use document-specific behavior in the viewer.

7.3 Filling out a form (end users)

• Open a form from Available Forms or a shared link (see below).
• Complete required fields and submit; edits follow your list’s permissions and the form configuration.

7.4 Deep links (same page URL)

The web part can read query parameters on the page:

Example pattern:

https://your-site/pages/your-page.aspx?formId=12&itemId=45

Use these links in emails or navigation to deep-link open item or open form’s list view depending on which parameters you include.

8. Toolbar reference (when visible)

The toolbar can hide when the page URL contains a formId query (focused “form-only” view).

9. Items and documents views

For each form you may open:

• A list items view for regular lists, or
• A documents view for document libraries (folders, files).

Context menus may include copy link actions for sharing the current view or item. Exact labels depend on your version.

10. If something goes wrong

If the UI crashes inside the web part, you may see Something went wrong with a short explanation and:

• Contact help: apps@devwals.com (email can include technical details when opened from the link).
• Find help: https://biznextapp.com/forms-for-sharepoint.html

Note anything you were doing and whether the problem happens on one browser or for one user only; your administrator may need to check list permissions, app deployment, or network policies (for example CORS for custom API endpoints).
