UserMetadata
It is an object that allows the user who creates the form in the web interface to automatically display the user information registered in the system on the form.
All the Human Resources definitions of the user are listed in the object, and according to the selected HR definition, the relevant definition value of the person who created the form in the web interface is automatically displayed in the object.
After the form is placed on the design screen in the object authoring interface, the user information that is desired to be displayed in the object is selected from the Properties panel. After that, the project should build and publish successfully under the Run heading in the menu. When the project is successfully published, the relevant form is opened from the menu by logging in to the web interface with the user name and password and it is seen that the user's selected information comes to the object automatically.
Clicking on the object displays the "General" and "Events" tabs in the Property Viewer panel, and the properties of the object can be viewed and edited. The inheritance scheme by which the properties of the object are transferred is as follows;

When server visibility is inactive, the client cannot intervene, but the server can intervene when client visibility is inactive.
'Enabled' - The active mode of the object is set from this field. When this feature is active, data entry can be provided to the object and the object can be edited. When the feature is passive, the object is in non-editable mode and appears passive.
'Client Enabled' - When the form is first opened, the object is not active, when a certain condition is met, etc., this field is made inactive so that the object is not active on the client side. Once the condition set by the code or the Rules Manager is met, the object can be activated again.

Data Definition Language
'Field Name' - The field in the database of the system that determines the name of the column it will create for the object. In the "Name" section, the object can be given another name and the column name to be created for the object in the database table can be created as a different name.
'Allow Null' - This section indicates whether the database field to be created for the object will allow null values.
'Size' - The size that the object will hold in the database field is determined in this field.
Events
The events owned by the object are located in the "Events" tab in the Property Viewer panel. Each event is triggered at different runtime moments, performing its own unique operations. Code written by the developer to these events is also executed at the time the corresponding event is triggered.
When the events in the "Client" field are double-clicked, the screen is directed to the form code editor section called "Formedi.ts" where TypeScript coding can be done and the method block for the clicked event is automatically created.
When the events in the "Server" field are double-clicked, the screen is directed to the form code editor section called "Formadı.cs" where C# coding can be done and the method block for the clicked event is automatically created.
The developer can construct any code block within these methods. Next to the event whose method is created on the code side by clicking from the Events tab, the method name information is automatically generated and the relationship between the event and the method is specified.
