Thank you for your feedback
Form Builder allows developers to construct user entry forms which integrate with IAP (Itential Automation Platform) Workflows and Service Catalog applications. In addition to constructing forms with standard inputs, developers can create forms from imported NSO YANG Service Models using the NSO NETCONF API. This native integration with NSO Services reduces the effort of having to duplicate the development of modeling services in both IAP and NSO. With Form Builder, service models requiring changes are modified just once; changes made in NSO are automatically available for IAP to consume.
