2.2.35 dataObjects

  • Article

The dataObjects element specifies all secondary data connections that query a secondary data source. Secondary data sources are used only to provide data to populate the form file or to be used for form functionality. The form file MUST NOT be submitted to a secondary data source.

If the form template contains a secondary data connection that queries a secondary data source, the secondary data source XML schema document MUST be contained in the form template (.xsn) file.
