Render form with submission

[Martin Belcic]

I'm using formiojs@4.13.11. I'm trying to make a PDF out of the form displayed in my web page.
But I am having issues because since Formio.createForm does not renders the submission initally, I am setting it afterwards, the first time the form is rendered it's entirely empty.

The createForm API can either take a form JSON definition or a Form.io form or submission URL. Here's an example of the former: https://formio.github.io/formio.js/app/examples/jsfiddle.html

The latter would look something like Formio.createForm(document.getElementById('formio'), 'https://<form.io server url>/project/<my project id>/form/<my form id>/submission/<my submission id>'); but you'd need to ensure that you have the correct access permissions.

In the example you provided you are setting the submission inside the .then(), after the createForm promise is resolved. It has the same issue, the form will be empty on the first render

Right, the submission is always going to be injected at runtime when created like this
