  • #020 - Passing info from the user to an RPG Program

    SUMMARY:

    In this month's session we demonstrated ways to prompt users for more information before calling an RPG program. We reviewed how to quickly set up a web app in Valence that retrieves data from a user and passes it along to an RPG program. We also showed how you can condition what the user is prompted for using app variables.
