			<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">In this post, we will talk about Scan QR Codes from FileMaker Using the QR Bot App.</span><span id="more-6284"></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Overview:</strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">How can we accurately scan a <em>specific</em> QR code from a label or invoice when multiple QR codes are present? We solved this challenge by integrating FileMaker with the QR Bot app. </span><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"> </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">Some of our customers need to scan a particular QR code on labels or invoices that contain multiple QR codes. While FileMaker’s native functionality allows QR code scanning, it cannot target a specific QR code when several are present in the same image.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">By integrating with the QR Bot app, we can define and restrict the scanning area within the camera view—allowing users to scan only the QR code located at a chosen position on the label or document.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">This article explains how to integrate QR Bot with FileMaker to achieve this and this can be work on the iOS FileMaker.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Steps to Integrate QR Bot with FileMaker:</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Step 1: Download the QR Bot App<br />
</strong></span></p>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">First, download and install the QR Bot app on the iPad that will be used for QR scanning. The app can be downloaded from the official QR Bot website: <a href="https://qrbot.net/"><strong>https://qrbot.net</strong></a></span></li>
</ul>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Step 2: Create FileMaker Scripts to Trigger QR Bot Scanning</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">To initiate scanning from FileMaker, we use the Open URL script step to launch the QR Bot app via its callback URL scheme.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">A typical QR Bot callback URL looks like this:</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">qrbot://x-callback-url/scan?x-success=&lt;CALLBACK_URL&gt; </span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">Here, x-success defines the URL that QR Bot should call after completing the scan. This callback URL reopens FileMaker and triggers a script to process the scanned result.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Important Note:</strong></span></p>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">QR Bot supports HTTP/HTTPS URLs only for callbacks. It does not accept fmp:// URLs directly.</span></li>
</ul>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><strong>To work around this limitation:</strong></span></p>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">We created a simple PHP script hosted on a server.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">FileMaker passes the database name and script name to this PHP URL.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">The PHP script then triggers the corresponding fmp:// URL internally to open FileMaker and run the desired script.</span></li>
</ul>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">This workflow allows FileMaker to launch QR Bot, adjust the camera position (shrink, enlarge, or reposition the scanning area), and target the exact QR code you want to scan.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">Once the scan is completed, QR Bot automatically calls the callback URL, which reopens FileMaker and runs the specified script. From there, FileMaker receives the scanned result and processes it as needed.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Conclusion</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">The team at FMDBSolutions hopes this article taught about how to integrate with QR Bot app with FileMaker. FMDBSolutions is a team of well-qualified experts that have a lot of experience with the many versions of FileMaker Pro and the <a href="https://fmdbsolutions.com/filemaker-go-development/">FileMaker Go</a> app too.</span></p>

<p class="p1"><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Overview:</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">One of our customers asked to need to send SMS from FileMaker, but unfortunately, there is no direct native code to send SMS from FileMaker.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">To overcome this problem, we have found a solution to send SMS from FileMaker using Twilio API and cURL code. When we call this API and cURL code in the FileMaker script step “Insert from URL”, then it is possible to send SMS from FileMaker.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Steps to send SMS from FileMaker.</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Step 1: Create Twilio Account</strong></span></p>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">The first step, of course, is to create a Twilio account and then note the “Account SID” and “Auth Token,” on the Twilio Dashboard. Also need to select the &#8220;Sender&#8221; Mobile number in your Twilio account.</span></li>
</ul>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Step 2: Create a script to Send SMS.</strong></span></p>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">Create a script to Send SMS from FileMaker using Twilio API and cURL code.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">The script mention variable for Account SID, Auth Token, From Mobile Number, To Mobile number, Text Content, URL, and cURL code like following</span>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">$accountID &#8211; Account  SID</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">$authToken &#8211; Auth Token</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">$from &#8211; From Mobile Number (Sender)</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">$to &#8211; To Mobile Number</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">$body &#8211; body of the message</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">$url &#8211; &#8220;https://&#8221;&amp; $accountID &amp; &#8220;:&#8221; &amp; $authToken &amp; &#8220;@api.twilio.com/2010-04-01/Accounts/&#8221; &amp; $accountID &amp; &#8220;/Messages.json&#8221;</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">$curl – &#8220;curl -X POST &#8221; &amp; $url &amp;</span></li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">&#8221; &#8211;data-urlencode \&#8221;Body=&#8221; &amp; $body &amp; &#8220;\&#8221; &#8221; &amp;</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">&#8221; &#8211;data-urlencode \&#8221;From=&#8221; &amp; $from &amp; &#8220;\&#8221; &#8221; &amp;</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">&#8221; &#8211;data-urlencode \&#8221;To=&#8221; &amp; $to &amp; &#8220;\&#8221; &#8220;</span></p>
<ul style="list-style-type: disc;">
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">In the “Insert from URL” script step on the URL, option specifies the variable $url and on the cURL, option specifies the variable $cURL</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">For clear detail, please refer below screenshot<img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-6020" src="https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/Text_SMS.png" alt="" width="909" height="579" srcset="https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/Text_SMS.png 909w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/Text_SMS-300x191.png 300w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/Text_SMS-768x489.png 768w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/Text_SMS-660x420.png 660w" sizes="(max-width: 909px) 100vw, 909px" /></span></li>

<p class="p1"><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Overview:</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">One of our customers asked need to select multiple files from FileMaker, but unfortunately, there is no option to select multiple files.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">To overcome this problem, we have found a solution to select multiple files from FileMaker using JavaScript. When we call this JavaScript in FileMaker Web Viewer, it will allow selecting the multiple files and will copy the selected path. We can then process copied path and create a Separate record in FileMaker.</span></p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">In this post, we will talk about how to convert the HEIF file to a JPG file using ConvertAPI in FileMaker applications. It will work above FileMaker version 15.</span><span id="more-5960"></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Overview:</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">One of our customers needs to convert the HEIF file to a JPG file from FileMaker, if we do this task manually, it will be a time-consuming process and manual errors may occur.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">To avoid the above-mentioned issues, we have found a solution to convert the HEIF file to a JPG file from FileMaker using ConvertAPI. When we call the ConvertAPI using the FileMaker Insert From URL function, it will convert the file and will provide the result in JSON format. We can then process that JSON data using FileMaker JSON functions and then the converted file can be used in our application as per our need.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Steps to Convert the HEIF file to a JPG file.</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Step 1: Create an Account on the ConvertAPI website.</strong></span></p>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">Create an account on the https://www.convertapi.com/ website and note the “Secret” key from “My Dashboard”.</span></li>
</ul>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Step 2: Create fields and Scripts in FileMaker.</strong></span></p>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">In FileMaker Database Create two Container Field one for the HEIF file and another for the JPG file.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">Create a Script to convert the HEIF file to a JPG file using Convert API URL and cURL.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">Initially, we need to set a variable to the value of the HEIF file container field. Variable name must should be end with (.heic) ex: $FileToConvert.heic</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">Need to set a variable for the following URL</span></li>
</ul>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">          &#8220;https://v2.convertapi.com/convert/heic/to/jpg?Secret=XXXXXXX&amp;StoreFile=true&#8221;</span></p>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">Need to set a variable for the following cURL ,</span></li>
</ul>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">              &#8220;-F file=@$FileToConvert.heic</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">               -F \&#8221;AutoRotate=true\&#8221;&#8221;</span></p>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">Add “Insert from URL” step, here in “Specify URL” pass the above URL variable and in “Specify cURL Options” pass the above cURL variable.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">Need to set a variable to get the “jpg” output URL from the JSON output, like following,</span></li>
</ul>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">            JSONGetElement ( $Result ; &#8220;Files[0]Url&#8221; )</span></p>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">Finally, add a “Insert From URL” for the JPG container field and pass the above variable to get the jpg file.</span></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">For clear detail, please refer below screenshot<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-5964" src="https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/conversion-1.png" alt="" width="855" height="327" srcset="https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/conversion-1.png 855w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/conversion-1-300x115.png 300w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/conversion-1-768x294.png 768w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/conversion-1-660x252.png 660w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 855px) 100vw, 855px" /></span></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-size: 14pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">After executing the above script, it will convert the HEIF file to a JPG file and then store it in the container field, like below</span></li>

<p class="p1"><span id="more-5950"></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Overview:</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">One of our customers needs to translate the text from &#8220;English to Spanish&#8221; and &#8220;Spanish to English&#8221; from FileMaker, if we do this task manually, it will be a time-consuming process and manual errors may occur.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">To avoid the above-mentioned issues, we have found a solution to translate the text from FileMaker using Google Translation API.

We can then process that JSON data using FileMaker JSON functions and then the translated text can be used in our application as per our need</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Steps to translate the text from FileMaker.</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Step 1: Create an API key in the Google Cloud Platform website.</strong></span></p>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">If you have a Gmail account, log in it and go to the Google Developer Console (https://console.developers.google.com/) and create a project.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">Go to Credentials Page.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">Create a new API key using the &#8220;Create Credentials&#8221; button and Note the API key.</span></li>
</ul>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Step 2: Create fields and Scripts in FileMaker.</strong></span></p>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">To achieve the above task, In FileMaker Database Create two text Fields, one for “Translate Input” and another for “Translate Output”. For example, enter the text that you want to translate in the “Translate Input” field. I have entered the text “The vessel is stopped due to engine oil is overlooked”. Please see the below screenshot.</span></li>
</ul>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-5954" src="https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Translate_Input.png" alt="" width="643" height="243" srcset="https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Translate_Input.png 643w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Translate_Input-300x113.png 300w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 643px) 100vw, 643px" /></p>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">Create a Script to translate the text from the FileMaker using Google Translation API. Mentioned the functionality below,</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">Initially, we need to set a variable to get the value of the “Translate Input” field.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">Need to set a variable for the following URL</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">For English to Spanish</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">https://translation.googleapis.com/language/translate/v2key=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx&amp;source=en&amp;target=es&amp;q=InputText&amp;format=text</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">For Spanish to English</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">https://translation.googleapis.com/language/translate/v2key=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx&amp;source=es&amp;target=en&amp;q=InputText&amp;format=text</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">Add “Insert from URL” step, here in “Specify URL” pass the URL variable.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">Finally, in the “Translate Output” text field, add a step to get the Translated text from the JSON output, like following,</span></li>
</ul>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">           JSONGetElement ( $Result ; &#8220;data.translations[0].translatedText&#8221; )</span></p>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">For clear detail, please refer below screenshot</span></li>
</ul>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><strong><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-5953" src="https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Translate_Script.png" alt="" width="905" height="247" srcset="https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Translate_Script.png 905w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Translate_Script-300x82.png 300w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Translate_Script-768x210.png 768w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Translate_Script-660x180.png 660w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 905px) 100vw, 905px" /></strong></span></p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">In this post, we will talk about how to bring neat lines in between the columns in reports showing list of records where fields have contents of varying size.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span id="more-5933"></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Overview:</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">While showing list of records in a report using list view, placing the fields at appropriate positions on layout with spaces, gives us the look and feel as that of neatly arrangement in columns. But what if we want to put those data fields in actual columns.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">Can we create actual columns using line objects? But there are fields where the data for one record may contain one word and for some other record, it may be of 20 words.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">Can we use Filemaker&#8217;s default sliding and visibility features, by checking the feature &#8220;Also resize the enclosing part&#8221; for the field along with the line objects? But that feature doesn&#8217;t work as long as any object for column creation is present. Illustrating the above problem using an example, we finally, reveal a simple solution.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Approaches to put the column and showing records on a list view report:</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Approach 1:</strong></span></p>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">When we use Filemaker&#8217;s default sliding and visibility features, by checking the feature &#8220;Also resize the enclosing part&#8221; for the field on layout setup, they look like below.</span><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="size-full wp-image-5936 aligncenter" src="https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Screen-Shot-2021-06-25-at-7.35.52-PM-1.png" alt="" width="558" height="506" srcset="https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Screen-Shot-2021-06-25-at-7.35.52-PM-1.png 558w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Screen-Shot-2021-06-25-at-7.35.52-PM-1-300x272.png 300w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 558px) 100vw, 558px" /></span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">You can see that different records have text data of different lengths and accordingly, the space occupied by the field for that record is proportional to the size of the field data.  It is made possible by using Filemaker’s default sliding and visibility features, by checking the feature &#8220;Also resize the enclosing part&#8221; for the field on the layout setup.</span></li>
</ul>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Approach 2:</strong></span></p>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">As shown below, putting line objects between the fields doesn&#8217;t provide us a solution, because sliding features of the field, doesn&#8217;t work with the line object put between them.</span><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="size-full wp-image-5937 aligncenter" src="https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Screen-Shot-2021-06-25-at-7.48.15-PM-1.png" alt="" width="554" height="709" srcset="https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Screen-Shot-2021-06-25-at-7.48.15-PM-1.png 554w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Screen-Shot-2021-06-25-at-7.48.15-PM-1-234x300.png 234w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 554px) 100vw, 554px" /></span></li>
</ul>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Approach 3:</strong></span></p>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">Here, comes the hack, the fruit of the article, showing us the solution.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">By using the field, which we know, may contain the largest data, of the available fields, on the layout, and keeping under each field (using Arrange → Send to Back feature) in all columns &#8211; and by making it&#8217;s text color, such that the text cancels, itself against the body color, ( should become invisible on viewing in report ), we can solve this problem.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">For these field objects, we mark the border on the appropriate side such that it shows as columns as shown below. We also position them without any spaces between these objects, so as to form column lines vertically and have their height covering the entire body so that single horizontal line appears.</span></li>
</ul>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">We will explain how to do that with an example.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">The steps are:</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">1) Identify the field which is going to contain larger amount of data &#8211; requires more space on layout.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">In our example, As you can see, the Full Address field is the one containing the largest text in each record. Also note that full address of different records are of different lengths.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">2) Keep the field below to all the other field objects as shown below using Arrange   &#8211;&gt; Send to back feature.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">3) Make all the field objects containing the largest amount of data, with their Sliding features and visibility checked in as Sliding up based on, all objects above and mark the check box, Also resize the enclosing part.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">4) Make the text color, body color such that the text inside the field objects, which were placed under all other field objects of the record, are invisible by using Graphic feature and Text feature.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">5) Mark the border of the field objects on the appropriate side.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">In our case, Full Address field object on the second column is marked its border on lower and right side.</span></p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="size-full wp-image-5934 alignnone" src="https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Border-Right-Field-Object.png" alt="" width="1012" height="528" srcset="https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Border-Right-Field-Object.png 1012w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Border-Right-Field-Object-300x157.png 300w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Border-Right-Field-Object-768x401.png 768w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Border-Right-Field-Object-660x344.png 660w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 1012px) 100vw, 1012px" /><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">Another ( full address) field object is marked on its left, right and bottom by using Appearance &#8211;&gt; Graphic feature.<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="size-full wp-image-5935 aligncenter" src="https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Left-side-object-border.png" alt="" width="1008" height="535" srcset="https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Left-side-object-border.png 1008w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Left-side-object-border-300x159.png 300w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Left-side-object-border-768x408.png 768w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Left-side-object-border-660x350.png 660w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 1008px) 100vw, 1008px" /></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">Note that we haven&#8217;t marked all the four sides of an object, otherwise, will appear thicker for the common &#8211; touching sides and robs the good look.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">5) Position all the field objects without any space between them so that border marked will form as column lines between the different fields of a record. Also, the height of the field objects must occupy the entire body part.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">Finally we can see them as though the field data are put in a neat column.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="size-full wp-image-5944 aligncenter" src="https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Screen-Shot-2021-06-25-at-8.04.47-PM-1-2.png" alt="" width="414" height="335" srcset="https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Screen-Shot-2021-06-25-at-8.04.47-PM-1-2.png 414w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Screen-Shot-2021-06-25-at-8.04.47-PM-1-2-300x243.png 300w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 414px) 100vw, 414px" />The team at FMDBSolutions hopes this article taught you how to put lines between the fields such that the records look like neatly arranged in columns.

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="p1"><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><span class="s1">In this post, we will talk about how to extract the text content from a scanned copy of a PDF file in FileMaker using ConvertAPI.  We have achieved this using the cURL function, therefore it will work only for the FileMaker version 16 and above applications.</span></span><span id="more-5884"></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Overview:</strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">Some of our customers need to extract the text content from a list of scanned PDF files and then the extracted text should be processed and entered on different tables. If we do this task by manual, it will be a time-consuming process and manual errors may occur.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">To avoid the above-mentioned issues, we have found a solution to extract the text content from a scanned pdf using CovertAPI. When we call the ConvertAPI using the FileMaker cURL function, It will extract the text content from the PDF file and will provide the result in the JSON format. We can then process that JSON data using FileMaker JSON functions and then the extracted text content can be used in our application as per our need.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Steps to extract the content from the PDF using ConvertAPI.</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Step 1: Create an Account in the ConvertAPI website.</strong></span></p>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">Create an account in <a href="https://www.convertapi.com/">https://www.convertapi.com/</a> website and note the “Secret key” from “My Dashboard”.</span></li>
</ul>
<p><strong style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">Step 2: </span></strong></p>
<ul class="ul1">
<li class="li1"><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">In FileMaker Database, create a Container Field and insert a scanned PDF Document.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">Create a script to extract the content from the PDF using the Convert API cURL.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">In that script, create a Variable to store the name of the pdf file, available in the container field. The Variable name must end with (.pdf) ex: $FileToExtract.pdf</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">Set a variable for the following URL (ex: $URL)</span></li>
</ul>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">                &#8220;https://v2.convertapi.com/convert/pdf/to/txt?Secret= Insert Secret Key &#8220;</span></p>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">Set a variable for the following cURL, (ex: $CURL)</span></li>
</ul>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">                &#8220;-F file=@$FileToExtract.pdf</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">               -F \&#8221;AutoRotate=true\&#8221;&#8221;</span></p>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">Add “Insert from URL” step, here in “Specify URL”,</span></li>
</ul>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">                Set Specify URL = $URL (URL variable)</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">                Set Specify cURL Options = $CURL (cURL variable).</span></p>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">Finally, in the Text field, add a step to get the Extracted text from the JSON output and Decode it, like following,</span></li>
</ul>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">                Base64Decode ( JSONGetElement ( $Result ; &#8220;Files[0]FileData&#8221; ) )</span></p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-5886" src="https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/pdfExtract.png" alt="" width="774" height="293" srcset="https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/pdfExtract.png 774w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/pdfExtract-300x114.png 300w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/pdfExtract-768x291.png 768w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/pdfExtract-660x250.png 660w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 774px) 100vw, 774px" /></p>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">After executing the above script, it will extract text from JSON output and Decode it and then store it in the text field, like below</span></li>
</ul>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-5885" src="https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/pdfex.png" alt="" width="1365" height="681" srcset="https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/pdfex.png 1365w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/pdfex-300x150.png 300w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/pdfex-1024x511.png 1024w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/pdfex-768x383.png 768w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/pdfex-660x329.png 660w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 1365px) 100vw, 1365px" />            </span></p>

It will work above FileMaker version 15.</span></span><span id="more-5807"></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Overview:</strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><span class="s1">JotForm is a San Francisco-based online form building company. JotForm&#8217;s software creates forms with a drag and drops creation tool and an option to encrypt user data.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Step 1: Creating an API key in JotForm.</strong></span></p>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">Create an account for JotForm in <a href="https://www.jotform.com/">https://www.jotform.com/</a></span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">After creating an account, In Setting, Under API tab we can see the New API key generated for the Account as like below.</span></li>
</ul>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><strong><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-5815" src="http://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/j1.png" alt="" width="1255" height="355" srcset="https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/j1.png 1255w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/j1-300x85.png 300w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/j1-1024x290.png 1024w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/j1-768x217.png 768w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/j1-660x187.png 660w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 1255px) 100vw, 1255px" />Step 2: Creating Form in JotForm.</span></strong></span></p>
<ul class="ul1">
<li class="li1"><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">Now, we need to create a form by selecting the Appropriate Template, now we can see the Form Id generated for the Form in the URL as like below</span><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">               https://www.jotform.com/build/&lt;Form ID&gt;</span></li>
<li class="li1"><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">For Example, here I have created a Customer Registration form and added three Sample entries as like below</span></li>
</ul>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><strong><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-5814" src="http://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/j2.png" alt="" width="1355" height="655" srcset="https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/j2.png 1355w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/j2-300x145.png 300w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/j2-1024x495.png 1024w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/j2-768x371.png 768w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/j2-660x319.png 660w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 1355px) 100vw, 1355px" />Step 3: Download Data from JotForm to FileMaker</strong></span></p>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">In the FileMaker database, create a field “Run_URL” and create a script to download data from JotForm to FileMaker.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">In the script, using the “Insert from URL” script step we can connect the FileMaker with JotForm by using the following URL</span></li>
</ul>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-5813" src="http://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/j3.png" alt="" width="532" height="40" srcset="https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/j3.png 532w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/j3-300x23.png 300w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 532px) 100vw, 532px" /></p>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">After running the scripts, if successfully connected with JotForm, it will return the information of the Customer in JSON Format in the field “Run_URL”</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">Create a field “Run_URL_Json_Format ” and provide the following Calculation to Format the Element</span></li>
</ul>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">            JSONFormatElements ( Run_URL )</span></p>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">Now we can fetch the Data of each Customer and store them as records in FileMaker using the Following script steps</span></li>
</ul>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-5812" src="http://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/j4.png" alt="" width="1075" height="527" srcset="https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/j4.png 1075w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/j4-300x147.png 300w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/j4-1024x502.png 1024w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/j4-768x376.png 768w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/j4-660x324.png 660w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 1075px) 100vw, 1075px" /></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">Now we can see the Customer Information’s stored as a record in FileMaker as like below</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><strong><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-5811" src="http://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/j6.png" alt="" width="1076" height="146" srcset="https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/j6.png 1076w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/j6-300x41.png 300w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/j6-1024x139.png 1024w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/j6-768x104.png 768w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/j6-660x90.png 660w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 1076px) 100vw, 1076px" /></strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Step 4: Upload Data from FileMaker to JotForm</strong></span></p>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">Create a script to Upload data from FileMaker to JotForm.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><strong> </strong>In the script, using the “Insert from URL” script step we can Post data from FileMaker to JotForm by providing the following Information</span></li>
</ul>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><strong>             Target Field:</strong> Run_Url</span></p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="p1"><span style="font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;"><span class="s1">In this post, we will talk about how to integrate FileMaker with Shopify websites. It will work above FileMaker version 15.</span></span><span id="more-5793"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><b>Overview:</b></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Shopify is an eCommerce platform that allows anyone to easily sell online, at a retail location, and everywhere in between. In the Shopify website, we are able to create, update, and delete records using the FileMaker platform.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><b>Step 1: <strong>Integrating FileMaker with Shopify websites.</strong></b></span></p>
<ul>
<li>From your Shopify admin, go to <a href="https://www.shopify.com/admin/apps"><strong>Apps</strong></a>.</li>
<li>Click Manage private apps.</li>
<li>Click Create a new private app.</li>
</ul>
<p>In the App details section, enter a name for your app, and an emergency developer email.</p>
<p>After you save the app&#8217;s details, the Admin API section shows the app&#8217;s API key and password.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><b>Step 2: <strong>Create a new script in FileMaker Database</strong></b></span></p>
<p>In the FileMaker database, create a new script to integrate FileMaker with Shopify websites.</p>
<p>Here is the URL for integrate with Shopify website,</p>
<p><a href="about:blank">https://{username}:{password}@{shop}.myshopify.com/admin/api/{api-version}/{resource}.json</a></p>
<ul>
<li>{username} — The API key that you generated</li>
<li>{password} — The API password</li>
<li>{shop} &#8211; The name that you entered for your development store</li>
<li>{api-version} — The supported API version you want to use</li>
<li>{resource} — A resource endpoint from the <a href="https://shopify.dev/docs/admin-api/rest/reference">REST admin API</a></li>
</ul>
<p>In FileMaker scripts, using the “Insert from URL” script step we can connect the FileMaker with Shopify websites.</p>
<p><span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-size: large;"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-5798" src="http://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/s1.png" alt="" width="1498" height="209" srcset="https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/s1.png 1498w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/s1-300x42.png 300w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/s1-1024x143.png 1024w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/s1-768x107.png 768w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/s1-660x92.png 660w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 1498px) 100vw, 1498px" /></span></span></p>
<p>After running the scripts, If successfully connected with Shopify, it will return the information of the website in the “$$Result” variable then you can make sure it&#8217;s integrated or not.</p>
<p>Here is the sample code for creating records on the Shopify website</p>
<p>For example: Create a product and return the product ID</p>
<p><span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-size: large;"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-5797" src="http://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/s2.png" alt="" width="1075" height="283" srcset="https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/s2.png 1075w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/s2-300x79.png 300w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/s2-1024x270.png 1024w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/s2-768x202.png 768w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/s2-660x174.png 660w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 1075px) 100vw, 1075px" /></span></span></p>
<p>In the script line 2 {resource} file we need to change, now we are going to add in Product, so we used “products.json”.Please refer to the below screenshot.</p>

<p>In the script lines 4 and 5, Using the “post” method, we can create records in Shopify websites.

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;" align="CENTER"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b><strong>View FileMaker Data in Gantt Chart using Google Charts</strong></b></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">In this post, we will talk about how to view FileMaker records in Gantt Chart using Google Charts.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><b>Overview:</b></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">FileMaker provided an inbuilt chart tool to display FileMaker data in various types of Charts. However, we can choose any one of the built-in charts only. In some cases, we need to display FileMaker data in the Gantt chart and that facility not available in FileMaker. To handle this kind of situation, we have found a workaround. We can display FileMaker Data in Gantt Chart using Google Charts.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">To view the FileMaker data in Gantt Chart using Google Charts, as a first step, We need to format the FileMaker data and add the formatted data into the HTML code which has been generated and stored in the calculation. Using this we can show FileMaker records in the Gantt chart.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><b>Step 1: </b>Format the FileMaker data like below.</span></p>
<p>                      <img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-5784" src="http://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/Html_Code.png" alt="" width="675" height="99" srcset="https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/Html_Code.png 675w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/Html_Code-300x44.png 300w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/Html_Code-660x97.png 660w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 675px) 100vw, 675px" /></p>
<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li>The above example represents the 4 FileMaker records.In these records
<ol>
<li>The first column represents “Task Id”,</li>
<li>The second column represents “Task description”,</li>
<li>The third column represents “Start Date”,</li>
<li>The fourth column represents “End date”,</li>
<li>The fifth column represents “Duration”,</li>
<li>The sixth column represents “Percentage Completed”</li>
<li>The seventh column represents “Dependencies”</li>
</ol>
<p>In the above columns if we are not having any values then put them as “null”.</li>
</ul>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><b>Step 2: </b>Insert a web viewer in layout</span></p>
<ul style="list-style-type: disc;">
<li>First, we have to generate HTML code for the Gantt Chart and store it in the database.</li>
<li>In that HTML code, we have replaced the formatted FileMaker data under the “data.addRows(“ as per the given image below.</li>
</ul>
<p><span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-size: large;">                          <img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-5785" src="http://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/Html_code2.png" alt="" width="667" height="115" srcset="https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/Html_code2.png 667w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/Html_code2-300x52.png 300w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/Html_code2-660x114.png 660w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 667px) 100vw, 667px" />      </span></span></p>
<ul>
<li>In the FileMaker database we have created a layout to display the records in Gantt Chart using the web viewer.</li>
<li>In the web viewer, we called the HTML code. it will display the records in Gantt Chart as per the given image below.<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-5789" src="http://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/Gantt1.png" alt="" width="1365" height="349" srcset="https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/Gantt1.png 1365w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/Gantt1-300x77.png 300w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/Gantt1-1024x262.png 1024w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/Gantt1-768x196.png 768w, https://fmdbsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/Gantt1-660x169.png 660w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 1365px) 100vw, 1365px" /></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>If we hover over the Gantt chart Bars then it will display the related information like below</li>
</ul>
