Data Mirroring Between Tables

I'm looking for a better form tool that also allows more accurate mirroring between tables

Hi Kaitlin,

Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. Can you explain a bit more about the workaround you're looking for, so I can help you better? You mentioned looking for a better form tool that allows for more accurate mirroring between tables. Jotform offers powerful features in its Tables that might fit your needs.

With Jotform Tables, you can connect multiple forms within your account to manage submission data from different forms in one place. This allows you to create lookups or roll-ups in connected tables, with records updating in real-time, so you don't need to reload the page to see new entries.

Additionally, Jotform's Tables Prefill feature lets you prepopulate form fields with data from other tables accurately. You can map columns from your tables to your form fields and create prefilled forms that mirror data precisely. This works with various field types like Full Name, Email, Address, Dropdowns, and more.

Here’s how you can use these features:

1. Connect forms in Jotform Tables: Add a new tab, select Connect to Form, and choose the form table to connect. Select columns to include, and the connected data will update live.
2. Use Tables Prefill to mirror data: Select your source table, and map columns to form fields. Then create prefilled entries to share or use.
3. Manage and view connected forms easily: You can view, assign, or edit forms directly from your tables without switching pages, making management smoother.

These capabilities should provide you with accurate and dynamic mirroring between tables and forms, enhancing your data management and form functionality.

Give it a try and let us know how it goes.

Hi Jason,
I've come across limitations with mirroring columns on monday. I find the data mirrors to the table but cannot be presented on custom graphs I make, which is very frustrating. Also, I am looking for a solution to connecting clients to numerous boards from various forms. I would love to see a demonstration of jotform if possible, for my organization.
Best,
Kait

Hi Kaitlin,

Could you give us an example on what should the accurate mirroring between tables? Can you share a screenshot or screen recording, you can upload the video in your Dropbox or Google Drive? Also, you add a new task field to any group on your Jotform Board. Let me show you how:

1. On your Jotform Board, at the bottom of the group you want to add a new task to, click on Add Task.

2. Then, enter a Title for your new task.

As an alternative, you can also:

1. Hover your mouse over a task and click on the Three Dots icon in the top-right corner of it.
2. Then, select Add New Task Above or Add New Task Below to place a new task where you want it.

That's it. You can also check out our guides about How to Personalize Jotform Boards and Jotform Boards help guide to learn more about it.

Give it a try and let us know if you need any other help.
