Canvas provides the following APIs for rendering form containers:

1. getWindow
2. getWindowByFormId
3. getWindowByFormObj

Anchor
getWindow getWindow

getWindow() API

Use the getWindow API to open a blank form using the container id without any data being displayed on the form.

...

CBXFORMCONTAINER.getWindow("CONTAINER_ID", config)

/*
* In this API,
* 'CONTAINER_ID' is a mandatory parameter. This should be the container, which has the Form ID configured to it.
* 'config' is an optional parameter. This parameter should contain the configuration of the container.
*/

A sample Sample code is as follows:

CBXFORMCONTAINER.getWindow("CONTAINER_EVE_TYPE_MASTER");

Anchor
getWindowByFormId getWindowByFormId

getWindowByFormId() API

Use the getWindowByFormId API to open a form using the container ID and form ID with data, when the same form has multiple containers.

...

CBXFORMCONTAINER.getWindowByFormId("FORM_ID","CONTAINER_ID",modelData, configObj)

/*
* In this API,
* 'FORM_ID' is a mandatory parameter. This should be the form ID, which has the containers configured for it.
* 'CONTAINER_ID' is a mandatory parameter. This should be the container, which has the same Form ID configured to it.
* 'modelData' is an optional parameter. This should be the array of data values to set on the Form Items.
* 'config' is an optional parameter. This parameter contains the configuration of the container; in addition to it,
* this object also contains the isTxnHdrReqd * flag and the Transaction Header form to handle the transaction data flow.
*/

• CBXFORMCONTAINER.getWindowByFormId("FORM_ID","CONTAINER_ID",modelData, configObj)

In this API,

FORM_ID – This is a mandatory parameter. This should be the form id, which has thecontainers configured for it.

CONTAINER_ID – This is also mandatory parameter. This should be the container, whichhas the same Form Id configured to it.

ModelData – This is an optional parameter. This should be the array of data values to seton the Form Items.

config – This is an optional parameter. This parameter contains the configuration of thecontainer; in addition to it, this object also contains the isTxnHdrReqd flag and the Transaction Header form to handle the transaction data flow.

A sample code for reference is shown belowSample code is as follows:

CBXFORMCONTAINER.getWindowByFormId("UPDATE_PREF_FORM", "UPDATE_PREF_FORM_CONTAINER", null,null) 

• CBXFORMCONTAINER.getWindowByFormObj(formObj, "CONTAINER_ID", configObj)

...

Anchor
getWindowByFormObj getWindowByFormObj

getWindowByFormObj() API

Use the getWindowByFormObj API to open a form using the container id ID (regardless of form id ID configuration to it) and the form manager object.

The syntax for this API is:

CBXFORMCONTAINER.getWindowByFormObj(formObj, "CONTAINER_ID", configObj)

/*
* In this API,

...

formObject – This is a mandatory parameter. This should be the form manager object thatcontains the form id, which has the containers configured for it.

CONTAINER_ID – This is also mandatory parameter. This should be the container, whichhas the same Form Id configured to it.

config – This is an optional parameter. This parameter contains the configuration of thecontainer; in addition to it, this object also contains the isTxnHdrReqd flag and the Transaction Header form to handle the transaction data flow.

...

* 'formObject' is a mandatory parameter. This should be the form manager object that contains the form ID, which has the containers configured for it.
* 'CONTAINER_ID' is a mandatory parameter. This should be the container, which has the same Form ID configured to it.
* 'config' is an optional parameter. This parameter contains the configuration of the container; in addition to it, 
* this object also contains the isTxnHdrReqd flag and the Transaction Header form to handle the transaction data flow.

Sample code is as follows:

var eventForm = new cbx.form.FormManager( 
	{ 
		formId : "ALERT_HANDLER_FORM", mode : 'edit',
		modelData:\
			{ 
				'EVENT_ID': eventid, 'CHECK_DUPLICATION': count_alert, 
	}); 
CBXFORMCONTAINER.getWindowByFormObj(eventForm, "CONTAINER_ALERT_HANDLER", null);
