External Add Item

If you would like to allow external users to submit items for a particular project, enable the Allow External Submissions options from Modify Project page.

When this option is enabled, each project’s item tracking section will include an External Add page. If you provide users with the URL for the external Add Item page, users not in the Dragnet system can use the form add items to Dragnet.

The external Add Item form includes a subset of fields available on the Dragnet Add Item form including:

   Type

   Description

   Details

   Category

   Version

   Platform

   Attachment

   Attachment Description

   Custom 1 and Custom 2 fields (Optional)

When a user not in the Dragnet system adds an item, “external-user” will be entered for the reporter value. Note that the username for this user can be configured from the Modify User page.

If you want the Custom 1 or Custom 2 fields to be displayed on the external page this can be configured from the Database Options page.
