I have a requirement to pre-populate a Sitecore 9 form field from a referring page



Now in WFFM you could use the "ReadQueryString" checkbox:



enter image description here



or you could make use of the Rules Engine inside the Form Designer:



enter image description here



Does anyone know if it's possible in Sitecore Forms OOTB? Or is this something custom that I need to introduce in order to create the same functionality?

          In Sitecore 9.0 it is not possible OOTB.



          However, in Sitecore 9.1 they did announce field prefilling as a new feature so if upgrading when this version becomes available (should be very soon now) is an option I would do that.



          If that is not an option, you could check the extension my colleague Bart has written: https://github.com/bartverdonck/Sitecore-Forms-Extensions They include prefilling based on xConnect data, but you can extend this with other sources (like the querystring as you require).
