Configure Actions for the 'Submit' Button and Conditionally Trigger the 'Submit Form' Action

[muralivenneti]

Currently, the Submit button on UXB forms does not support configurable actions such as executing a service or invoking a custom function. This prevents developers from implementing additional business validations or pre-submission logic beyond the built-in Validate Data Inputs action, often requiring an extra standard button and additional user clicks.

Enhance the Submit button to support configurable actions similar to other button types, and allow the default Submit Form action to execute conditionally based on the outcome of a custom function or service call. This would simplify form design, reduce unnecessary user interactions

@muralivenneti per PM, can you provide the use case for this enhancement request please?

[muralivenneti]

The business use case is to invoke a custom function or automation service to perform additional field validations that are not covered by the standard Validate Inputs functionality before the user proceeds from the form.

Additionally, an automation service or custom function may be required to invoke APIs. While this can be handled by the automation service after the form is submitted, the flow must then return to the form and reload it to display any error messages returned by the API.
