Description

Currently, there is no direct integration between Frevvo and Orange Tracker. However, there are methods in which to receive form submissions from a Frevvo form into Orange Tracker. Creating an Orange Tracker ticket upon form submission requires some slight modifications to the Frevvo form mechanisms. The following method outlines a way which utilizes Orange Tracker's email system when a form submission is emailed by Frevvo to the corresponding project.

Note

Prior methods to submit into Orange Tracker used the "Reply To:" field to create an issue. This method should no longer be used. The "From:" field is now the appropriate field to be populated if you wish to submit into Orange Tracker.

  1. Edit the form that will have it's submissions pushed to Orange Tracker.
  2. Select the book gear icon in the top bar of the edit page. This is the "what happens to my data?" item.

  5. The form will automatically come in be sent out with and come into Orange Tracker with the email, its-forms@its-frevvo-prod1.syr.edu. If you wish the submitter of the form to be brought into Orange Tracker as the Issue Reporter, then the user name or email would have to be retrieved from an existing field in the form, and set as the "From:" address. An example is as follows, with a form field currently existing with a "Name" of netID. Inside and including the curly braces will be replaced with whatever the submitter has placed within the netID field in the form upon submission.
