Field aliases make it easy to create a unique, scalable mapping of your data to any Workflow. By setting up field aliases on a webform and maintaining a 1:1 mapping of Anvil field aliases to your own data, any user can set up a Workflow to be completed entirely or partially over API.
There are two ways to set up field aliases on a Workflow: create a Workflow from a document template with field aliases or manually add to webform fields.
Navigate to Workflows.
Select Choose an existing template.
The document template’s field aliases will automatically appear on the generated webform fields.
Click into the webform field you’d like to add a field alias to.
In the Field Options side panel, click more options.
