About E-form Integration with Tasks
The webMethods product suite provides electronic forms integration to enable the use of e-forms with your tasks. There are two ways of enabling e-form support for tasks:
Basic e‑form support can be implemented by storing e‑form templates and instances in or in a file system or web server. For more information and a list of the supported e-form types, see
Implementing E-form Support for BPM.
Fully featured e‑form support can be enabled with
webMethods Content Service Platform; for more information, see
Implementing webMethods Content Service Platform for BPM.
To be able to work with e-forms in tasks, the following preliminary actions are necessary:
Create a repository for your e-form instances and templates.
Configure a
webMethods e-form environment in
My webMethods and deploy that environment to the
Integration Server host(s) where you will be creating your IS document types.
Ensure that you have network connectivity between all of the host servers.
Review various implementation issues for the supported e-form types.
For more details about these procedures and conceptual information about the use of e-forms in the webMethods product suite, see Implementing E-form Support for BPM or Implementing webMethods Content Service Platform for BPM, depending on your e‑form solution.
For more information about interacting with e-forms in tasks, see
Working with E-form Data in Tasks. For information about integrating task types with e-forms stored in a
webMethods Content Service Platform repository, see
webMethods BPM Task Development Help.
