Examples Using Update Item Widget

Updating Fields in the Current Item

This screenshot shows the Update Item form configured to update two fields in the current item:

The “Status” choice field is updated to one of the available choices configured for the field.
The “Start Date” field is updated to the current date using an Easy Reference lookup.

Updating a Field in Another List

This example shows an Update Item widget that is part of a workflow that approves documents in a Draft Documents library and copies them (using the Copy Item widget) to a library called Published Documents.

To provide a link back to the item in the Draft Documents library, a field called “Link to Draft” in the Published Documents library is updated using an Easy Reference lookup to the Draft Document item URL.
